Because some people don’t want to put effort or energy into a friendship. Unfortunately I had that happened to me plenty of times when I was in university.

I have found that being single when most around me are couples makes it hard to have time alone with them. Couples don't have much time to hang out with someone single. I've had close friends who, when they got married, no longer had much time for me. I thought back to when I was married, and spent almost all my time with my husband.
@WonderGirl thats definitely very relatable for me. Afew of my friends are in relationships and they are the ones who make little to no time for me.

People just have their own lives and routines and with social media it's easier to find people online to talk to rather than in person. I used to be a big people person but now I would much rather just talk to people online.

After highschool is when u learn who is truly your friends. Pretty much everyone I use to know in school have moved and gotten married and have kid's

Well I just dread meeting people and don't like being looked at, so I realize I've dug my own hole. I hate being judged, but that's what we do, nonstop. So, being alone, with no eyeballs on me, is such a luxury. I am not good friend material anymore. Most think they're better than me anyway, so it's all irrelevant, redundant, whocaresville

I was reading somewhere that some adults are arranging good old fashioned sleepovers like we used to have when we were kids, and it's working.

Because people are clicky and into themselves... wait till you turn 80 you will really be alone.... just be yourself and hope any friend you do have is a real friend.....
its an age thing. people stop having much time to devote to things outside their man foci... career, family, kids. friends become luxuries they can't invest time into and then they retire and have nothing but time.
@dirge hm i understand that. But im pretty young and id say most people my age dont focus on those things.
@Newromantic82 it tends to be a ramp up. you may not be there quite yet, but it seems to hold true for lots of people

You're trying to hang out with the wrong people.
Not wrong as in bad, but wrong as in wrong for you.
Infamous607 · 51-55, M
@Newromantic82 yeah. That's a tough one.
I think maybe it starts with ourselves. Liking and valuing ourselves. Then we'd attract those who would also value us.
"Friends" get away with what we allow them to get away with.
Or... Be content with what youve got. Personally I'd rather be alone than having to maintain friendships like a chore.
@Infamous607 youre so right 🫂 thank you for your wise words
Infamous607 · 51-55, M
@Newromantic82 Think that ..your real friends will never find you while you're spending your time with the fake ones.
Anyway. Im just talking. Good luck.

Because strangers are just friends you haven't met yet...or murder in a dark alleyway.
