"Being nice" is a common coping skill for people who are depressed all the time. We don't want anyone to feel the way we do, so we are super careful about what we say and how we act. It can be problematic if you let people take advantage of it, but most of the time it just feels good to be nice
I'm confused by the replies saying a nice friend group would be boring because in my experience, bickering and arguing among people just distracts everyone from actually getting shit done, solving a problem or even having a productive talk.
Different people manifest affection in different ways. I have members of my family who hug and members that (lovingly) slap the shit out each other on sight. It’s all good.

Yeah dude, you are DEFINITELY the most normal person here, uh-huh.
I never even considered there might be friend groups out there without at least one.
I support playfighting.
I can't imagine actually being antagonistic towards someone I like unless they gave me very good reason to do so, we do light goofy teasing.
Being disagreeable is very inefficient.
