It's better never to be in a three-people or more friendship. The truth is that 1 out of the many people in that friend group will be left out.
The truth of friend groups is that the rest will be talking but one is forgotten. That one that is forgotten will not be added to that conversation.
Being in a 2 people friend group is better for then you both won't be lonely and nor will be forgotten. These two people will always be included because they both have one another.
