    I don’t have one. I find questions like this to be inflammatory

      Super weird response imo. There’s nothing wrong with prefering more people to check in, you don’t need a specific number

        And that’s what I’m trying to get across.

      I used to have no one in my life who’d initiate, and was quite happy with that. So from my perspective, 3 does sound like a good number of friends willing to keep you in their circle, but of course we don’t know the first thing about you or your circumstances. What is it about those 3 people that makes it feel like their effort isn’t enough to stop your feelings of isolation? I assume if it’s not about quantity, it’s about quality. Am I on the mark, or is it something else you find unsatisfactory?
