@Agastya,
At about this age i had a friend who was the same, but he wasnt arrogant and didnt brag. Awful taste , and low ambition, pretty good looking guy, well put together, and Otherwise a nice guy, but the lack of ambition and low taste was the polar opposite of me, (im high ambition with a taste for fine women) so as much potential as i saw in him and as fun as a dude he was, we just didnt have things in common any more. When your chasing deals, travelling and building companies and his interested in wifing up fat 4s from your neighbourhood and playing computer games, and working 2 days a week in walmart (your young grind and work 5 days and stack) it just dont make sense to pretend to have things in common.

I didnt call him out on it, despite some slight teasing. I just drifted off and we were quite close. i then surrounded myself with a lot of entrepeneur type people which helped as it was a friendly constructive environment.

i personally dont date women that display any type of qualities of being a hood rat/ghetto. So being around a friend that dated one would annoy me as there would be times when id have to be in their presence. I cant be around that type of energy and its energy draining for me to pretend. I would just keep it moving

Was thinking about this today and for me right now the juice isn't worth the squeeze.

Over the weekend I chilled with two guy friends from college days who are extremely blue pilled. One of them was wishy washy about going out with me but when his blue pilled buddy agreed to come too he felt more comfortable. They would gang up on me to challenge my ideas but the location was not sound, it was merely emotional appeals. I just bit my tongue and made sure they had a good time but I will most likely not go out with them in that context again.

Other times I'll meet people that essentially use me as an unpaid teacher and just copy things that I've sacrificed years of time, energy, and money trying to learn while getting very little in return.

The guys who are better than me either won't give me the time of day or just very flakey so it's obvious that they don't value me as much as I value their company. Yes. You can offer them value etc. but I find usually the value these cats demand is usually not worth it. Again, unpaid labour and the chances they'll give you a real gem is so slim.

So for now it seems my ideal is, acquaintances for just a quick hey how'ze it going but nothing too deep, mentors via audio/programs so I don't feel like a burden, and just heavy on the girls. I'm introverted anyways and looking back very few guy friends added much value to my life. It was usually research/mentors that did it for me.

Guy friend negatives

1) often blue pilled / emotional appeals that fuck with your frame if you let it.
2) often get attached to girls etc. / will fuck up your game / flow and then of course most of them want all their ex girlfriends off limits
3) just aren't as dedicated to success/driven as me so will make you late to get to the club etc. some might even shame game

these guys are takers, don't give them stuff for free

better hang out alone, learn a new skill, meditate, build something

Seems like most people are.

That is why you should not be friends (in the non-superficial meaning of the word) with everybody, but be selective.
