Friends...
 

So I've kind of been battling with this for a while now and I haven't really been able to talk about how I feel. Because I think it might be a little silly for a 22 year old to be complaining about not being able to make friends.

Anyways I have a couple close friends but since they graduated college they're all kind of scattered across the country. Same with all my friends from high school. I used to be like this big social butterfly but lately it's like I can't find the point in going out and having any fun. I know a lot of my friends feel like I'm not making an effort to keep up a relationship with them and to be honest I guess I'm not. I just don't know how to get back to my sociable ways...

I guess I don't really know where I'm going with this. I kind of just wanted to get it out finally. I feel like it's something I can't even talk to my wife about. So I came on Menewsha to try and make friends thinking that it might be a little bit easier for me on here but still I feel like I can't put myself out there.

Does anyone else have this kind of experience? What did you do? I really don't want to be a shut it for the rest of my life...

It's not silly, alot of people find making friends hard regarless of age. The thing is if they're worth it then they'll always be there regardless of time and distance between you or if you don't talk every day.
Friend from school do to to drift away because after school you don't tend to have much in common anymore.
Alot of the time you end up with "work friends" and then it's a case of finding friends outside of work who have similar interests which might mean joining a club or something.

Here on Mene events are a good time to make friends and there's always the nation where there are plenty of threads to join or make your own.
