Thirty Fourth

The thing is
I don't like a lot of people. It takes a lot - so much so that I wish it wouldn't - for me to really like someone. And I tend to only like people I've gotten to know, and know very well. And if I've gotten to know you, you're my friend.
The result is
I then tend to like friends.
The problem is
Friends don't like me. Because we're friends.
