Is it normal that i like to have "toxic" friends rather than nice ones?

Recently I've joined this group of friends and it was really fun at first, but as I got more comfortable around them I've started to get more upset at them for little things. Yet despite this they still say they like me and want to hang out with me, They aren't even rude to me when I'm being an ass. I don't like it and it makes me uncomfortable as I like to be around people who I can show all of my feelings and shitty personality to without fear of them leaving (and them be the same), and nicer people don't want to deal with that (and it's perfectly understandable). I just wish I could find some people who are comfortable showing me their shitty side and are ok with me showing mine. Also, I'm not always an asshole, I just want to be around people who can handle me when I am.
I kinda got off track a bit, but I was wondering if it's normal to want "mean" but honest people as friends instead of nice people.

    Sounds like you don't like fake people, and you want them to call you out on your bull. That would not be a toxic relationship. Toxic is treating somebody bad, for no reason.

    You'll find a lot of good friends in prison, I would start there.

    Very confusing post.

    You seem to be saying you're unhappy because the crowd you're in with don't treat you like shit when you're obnoxious to them.

    So are you saying that you want them to punish you for your naughty behaviour? Or are you looking for validation - if you behave in an obnoxious way, them kicking the shit out of you (literally or figuratively) would make you feel better about your own behaviour?

    Phoney people are never nice to be around long-term, but real friends accept that you're less than perfect and think that the good things you bring to the relationship are more important than any occasional assholery.
