Making friends as an adult is hard, even harder when you have kids. The desire is there for most ppl, the effort to fulfill that desire is another story. The best friendships form naturally without being forced 🤷🏻♀️
I want more friends but between being an introvert and exhausted with young children, it’s hard to find energy to keep up with friendship relationships.
I think some folks want followers. Not just the social media type but real life followers, they don’t have to put in the work but someone will check for them. Just waiting for someone to give “they want to be friends energy.” Right now it’s a, “I think I want friends but maybe I’m good energy.”
@Samira perfectly said! The desire is there but the effort isnt! How do they expect to have friendships just expecting the other person to always make plans and reach out? Sometimes i really question how people even have celebrations with other people. Do they really communicate often?
@Tiffiny literally everyone i have spoken to has a maximum of 1-2 friends. But the question is why? Are we so accustomed to acquaintances that we no longer know how to be a friend?
@Megan see the issue shouldnt be our kids! People with kids have the right to have friends too.
@Incognito Yeah I’ve met so many ppl online and offline that wanna make plans to hang out, but the plans either fall through or are never made lol I just gave up.
I’m finding the older I get the fewer women I associate with. I literally have 1 REAL friend. It’s so hard to find a genuine honest person, man or woman. It’s sad when you really think about it. You’re so right, it is all surface. That’s why I joined this. Figured it couldn’t hurt.
