A woman who has very few friends is often a strong and confident woman.
She has learned something important: quality matters more than quantity.
She does not need many people around her to feel important or valued.
Her confidence comes from inside her, not from praise or attention.
She is not afraid of being alone.
She knows who she is and what she deserves.
She chooses carefully where to spend her time and energy, and who to allow into her life.
She has seen fake smiles, selfish friendships, drama, and gossip.
Because of that, she chose peace instead.
And in that peace, she found real happiness.
She does not depend on others to feel complete.
She enjoys her own company.
She knows that true friends are rare, and that one or two real friends are better than many shallow ones.
Her circle is small, but it is strong.
The people in it earned their place through trust and loyalty.
She does not waste her time on toxic or meaningless relationships, because she knows her time is valuable.
She knows what she wants in life.
And she does not settle for less.
So if you meet a woman with few friends, do not judge her.
She is peaceful, complete, and independent.
She has already proven everything to herself.
She does not seek approval from anyone.
She knows her worth.
— Anthony Hopkins
