The researcher Robin Dunbar became famous for his classic theory that people can maintain meaningful relationships with about 150 others. This is based on brain size, but it’s also based on the amount of time and investment it takes to maintain connections with each other. Within their 150 relationships, the average person has about five people who are close friends — the people you can really rely on, and with whom you have the deepest relationships.
