Steam friends are so fucking useless. You add someone you played a game with and had fun with only to never fucking talk to that guy or play with him ever again. And if you try to initate something then its a gamble. A 90% gamble of you losing that "friend" because the hidden rule about steam friends is that you're not friends and that you're actually collecting eachother on the friends list. I have nearly a hundred "friends" on steam added from random game sessions and not a single one of them has ever initiated conversation after said initial game session. If i were to contact all those people i would either get removed or ignored and i would be faced with the fact that these people are not my friends.

What anon is looking is something like clans of the past, people that would group together just to play one game but sadly you were born too late and this kind of shit is never returning.

I play on Xbox and I have two friends - my friend and his brother. We met through the DOA subreddit 4 years ago. I deleted all my other xbox "friends"

What the actual fuck is this? Something tells me this is symptomatic of societal collapse.

Have you tried not being an annoying faggot with a fag voice? Maybe everyone sane would stop avoiding you? No? I guess you can join the 41 then. Fucking queer.

>>719944605
No. Steam friends, even strangers are VERY USEFUL.
Why? because even without talking to them, you can discover a lot of new games beyond your usual horizon through their online activity.
>oh, anon is playing xyzc game? what's that? let me check... wow it looks interesting! *wishlisted*

>>719944605
You also have to initiate conversation. You can't just blame them

Your social anxiety is ridiculous.

Send a message.
If they ignore it, move on.
The interaction has about as much importance as you assign it. So give it a value of zero.

Not everybody is going to ignore you.
Someone ignoring you doesn't reflect poorly on you.

I dont want to be humiliated but i will do this to clean my wishlist once and for all. Im going to message every steam friend asking if they want to play something and i know im going to get humiliated. This is a humiliation ritual. I can just imagine how everyone is cringing at the thought that i thought we could play games together. See when you add someone from a game session people associate you with that game and it becomes cringe to play outside of that game. Essentially you are both locked to one game and the only reason you're friends is that so maybe you can join eachother when someone is playing that game. But therein comes the problem where we dont play that game anymore. Why are we friends? How will you respond when i ask you to play something else. I hate confrontations.

>>719946602
jfc either speak to them or don't

>>719946742
I sent 1 message to one guy. As i was about to send another message to another guy that guy went offline and it was scary. I dont know why. Im afraid. I dont want to be humiliated
>>
I did it.
1 guy instantly rejected and went offline mode. Another just replied asking who i was. I told him i was his steam friend and then blocked and removed him. Another guy actually wanted to play!
>>
>>719944605
Dude, i got like 30 switch friends and they that've invited me to games is literally 2
Conversely, i've never invited anyone to anything, ever

It's a larp. Anon is afterglow shitposting after spraying his GFs back with his cum. It's all a big joke to us actually mentally ill people.

This is great advice for bootstrapping social connections. It's awful advice for holding onto them longterm. If you don't value any interaction with anyone then everyone is replacable, then you just have a revolving door of fleeting connections built on mutual use rather than anything personal. You have no friends, just off the clock coworkers.

I'm not falling for that gay pc scene, tho
Catch me outside that, on ps4

Are you retarded? The guy literally cannot bring himself to initiate conversation. Is your sterling suggestion for him to continue doing nothing? THAT is how you end up alone. Holy shit I'm in awe of how terrible your advice is

I can already tell why you have no friends and resort to adding weirdos from here to satisfy your need for community, it failing to net you any meaningful relationships is guaranteed

If you are under the age of 21 go and find better hobbies, if you are over 21 I will just assume this is a bait thread to have insecure teenagers beg to add you so you can nonce them under the guise of being just another porn addicted loser on 4chan who understands

what am I even supposed to do about this? I don't think it's that bad but I've been told I sound gay sometimes, but I don't understand how you're supposed to change it, nor why it's that big of a deal anyways

i dont really want to do that

No one's ever accused me of being a social butterfly but I don't understand what it's like to be autistic enough to scare away even potential vidya buddies. Be vaguely social on occasion and if you liked yapping with someone add them to your friends list and maybe play with them again if you're both on. Like actually how do you fail at that?
>>
>>719944605
People use discord for this now. Steam is just a store/server system these days. Ask if you can add them in discord, check out the publicly posted discords for the game you are playing. Also, most people who game alone are antisocial and wouldn't play with you again anyway.

>>719944738
>>719945443
Is this a bot?
>>
>>719948569
The worst part is that he asked for my discord but it was after i had blocked him so damage was already done
>>
>>719945898
give it an initial value of zero
if they respond positively raise it gradually throughout the conversation
>>
>>719949976
that means you sound disgusting and insufferable
nobody normal wants to hear that shit and it just means people don't wanna deal with that disgust
talking like a queer is learnt, and if you can't even notice it you're retarded
>>
>>719944605
DON'T ADD PEOPLE AFTER JUST A GOOD MATCH
I added people I played with for months and still regretted some of it!
