If someone only trusts you because you act like an emotionless robot, they're not worth hanging out with. You want to hang out with people who accept your whole self, weaknesses and strengths included.

At some point in your life you might need support to go through dark and difficult times - you want people who are there for you throughout those periods.

I agree, but I think most people model others in their head quite crudely so whenever someone breaks outside of their box of expectations, that someone is no longer serving the same role in the relationship, and risks being shunned or replaced. Purely conjecture though.

On the flip side, now closer to an emotionless robot due to such experiences, I find people relying on me for my emotionless roboticism.
