How the hell do grown people make friends?

[You Win Perfect]

If you donthave knowledge of sports its gonna be hard....sports is the common denominator for men.From this standpoint, making friends is easy...the awkward shyt is how do you keep in contact with these niccas after you depart from wherever yall met at? Personal info has to be exchanged....thats where its tricky cause theres no real masculine way to ask for another niccas number

I like to talk about ways to make more money. So I don't really talk to my male coworkers because sports is pretty wack and I'm not getting paid to analyze sports. So all my my male friends outside of work share similar views. If you are talking business its not awkward to exchange contact information. As far as females, I don't have any friends just fukk buddies.

Not gonna lie at 24 i feel pretty much fuked in this regard and it's seriously making me sink further into depression as i get older. Slaving away monday-Friday and not having shyt to do with anyone on the weekends.
I was never the out going type always struggled to make friends at school just never meshed well with the other obnoxious kids which accounted for the majority at my school.Only keep in contact with one dude from school even then we only meet once or twice a year.
Having no social group is going to seriously impede my chances at finding a woman need to put myself out there some how before it's too late

In my experience a lot of friendships made are circumstantial. Whether it be at work, at the bar, college or wherever you chill at. If you’re actively trying to make friends don’t over think shyt. Once you relax and be yourself others are gonna notice and want to be around you.

You don't have a hobby or a job homie?

If it's not from work, it's hard. I still hang with my same groups from University and my childhood. Don't really have any new friends. Maybe through my girl's friends, but we don't chill independently so they don't count.

IF I needed to make friends though, I'd get involved in things. If I was into art, I'd join some sort of art class. Excercise? Join a running club, etc. Find what you like to do and get involved in activities. You'll make friends that way.

You'll find people that want to stick to their own group of friends, while many others are open to friendship. The best friendships though are the ones you establish when you are young.

Most of my friends from school are busy with there families or work I really only see them at events like birthday parties weddings etc.. 3 of my closest friends that I chill with actively 2 are from my softball team and the other 1 was a co worker from awhile ago. I kept my co worker buddy at an arms length until we chilled once outside of work for this pub crawl he was running so i brought a couple of friends along when I realised he was a maniac like I am we've been pretty close ever since. Then you become close with there friends. I just joined a volleyball team this summer and we all got along pretty good weve been slowly becoming friends since.

So basically activites and work are probably your best bet. But i'm really not a fan of making friends like that at work if I can avoid it.

This scares tf out of me.

You mean when Im older Im going to have to be friends with Co workers??

At school shyt is so easy so the thought of having to do this is depressing asf

Keep those school friendships. You may actually meet some cool coworkers but that's pretty much how it works. You may make friends through other people too like your girl or even friends of co-workers.

If you're willing and have that personality you'll always be able to make friends.

This. IF you're outgoing and willing to make friends, you shouldn't have a problem. If you stay in the house or are retarded then best of luck to you.

Isn't way harder for grown men to make new friends than it is for women?
nikkas dont like approaching nikkas.

A lot of these guys are social outcasts, socially awkward, etc. A lot of their life is based on social media, the coli, etc.

It's definitely harder for dudes to make friends, but those friendships that come about, are more reliable and serious when you need em.

Women have it easier to create friendships, but those friendships are more catty, fun and games, and prone to break if one gets jealous over a man, income, freeloading, etc.

Walk the streets naked while talking to yourself

 

[concise]

Friends?! For Grown People?!?

What ya'll tryna do? Pick up girls? Play Madden?

Friends exist for times of little responsibility. There's a reason they disappear into adulthood.

smh. Horrible take.
