It's okay to connect with people less. In today's society, the simpler your relationships and the fewer your frens, the greater your blessings.
Now is the so-called end of the Dharma era, where people's hearts are all deviated. Friends are afraid you are doing better than them, doctors hope you get sick, and lawyers hope you get into lawsuits. In the past, everyone had a pure heart; back then, having more friends meant more opportunities. Now, more friends mean more consumption and more karmic obstacles, which instead leads to great depletion.
