Spot on. shyt, being in your late 20s with no kids, not married with money puts you in a strange place .....
I've been lucky to find a couple good friends in a similar situation, but if that wasn't the case, shyt would feel lonely as fukk sometimes. It's slightly better in big cities, but are you really tryin to make friends like that in your early 30s? I dunno.
Big cities are definitely a lot better. I'm in a smaller city now and I have a girlfriend, but when i'm single I like to go to happy hours and travel a lot. Most of my friends and family members have to plan to even go to happy hour. Definitely not trying to make new friends.
