is it just me or does everyone realize that as you get older, you make less and less friends because you don't trust anyone but your closest friends?
i feel like it's so hard to make friends nowdays and it probably not just me who feels this way. everyone prefers to stay cozy at home, mostly watching films or smth instead of going on a coffee and a walk, people are also preoccupied with their own stuff, and rarely anyone wants to go out and have fun ¿
idk it's kinda weird because when i used to think that i would be 18 , i would have a friend group, i wasn't thinking of having one good friend who i only see two times a year...
and i've also noticed that people are chronically online and most of them don't have a social life anyway?? it's actually sad to think because life isn't supposed to be spent on tiktok :/
i think it's time to bring back book clubs or something
or maybe i just don't have friends and needed to yap a bit 😇

i am not 28, but i am at a point in my life where people are no longer just free to hang out on a whim. i think it has partly to do with the fact that people are busy with their lives, and are actually focused on doing well in school/climbing the ladder at work etc. i don’t think it’s because people don’t care about spending time with you, but maybe it could be a good idea to look into ways to meet new people. making friends as an adult is literally impossible without having some activity you share, so if you’re able to, join a club or group if some kind and attempt to reach out to people there. there’s nothing wrong with trying to make new friends no matter what age you are, and the worst thing that can happen is that yall just end up being acquaintances and you get to continue and meet more people and try to make friends again.

I feel like im always the friend to initiate plans and go out and never the friend invited out by others. over time, and especially post-covid lockdown, I’ve basically stopped trying and therefore, spend a lot of time alone 🥲

there is literally nothing better than making plans with your best friend who you haven't seen in a while, yes i want to go shopping, yes i want matching pyjamas and yes i want to watch christmas movies while being cuddled up in a warm blanket... i love girlhood ❤️🩹
