I had a certain talent for friendship, but I never had any friends, either because they never appeared, or because the friendship I had imagined was a mistake made by my dreams. I always lived an isolated life, which became more and more isolated the more I came to know myself.

But I was a lonely creature, and although I would have been very happy to have a friend I just never happened to meet one.

I had no friends who would call upon me and break the monotony of my daily existence.

I never had any friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, did you?

I didn’t have any friends. I didn’t know any kids besides my cousins. I wasn’t a lonely kid — I was good at being alone. I’d read books, play with the toy that I had, make up imaginary worlds. I lived inside my head. I still live inside my head. To this day you can leave me alone for hours and I’m perfectly happy entertaining myself. I have to remember to be with people.

I never had any friends later on like the ones I had when I was 12 - Jesus, did you?

I always wanted to have many friends, unfortunately, friends are formed with years, and not everybody know how to respond as a friend.

I never got girls when I was a kid. One girl told me, “Come on over, there’s nobody home.” I went over. There was nobody home.

To hear Delly describe it, I had next to no friends because I intimidated people by being so exceptional. Not true. I had next to no friends because I wasn't friendly.

Are we long-lost friends, by chance?" "No, we never got along all that well. Long-lost acquaintances? Compadres? My cat liked you.

I wanted to ring everyone and tell them I was number one but then I realised I didn’t have any friends.

Lonely children often have imaginary playmates but I was never lonely; rather, I was solitary, and wanted no company at all other than books and movies, and my own imagination.

I have no friends even though I am cool.

To forget a friend is sad. Not everyone has had a friend.
