Title. Well these days I’ve been feeling lonely, and I feel somewhere male friendships I have aren’t that strong. I’ll be honest, I don’t have many female friends either, but I’ve been particularly felt disappointed by my male peers, especially when it comes to talking emotionally. What are your experiences?
Yes.
I think the ‘lonliness epidemic’ is really born of delusional expecations. Most of the sad lonely people expect things from others they’d never give of themselves…
my most socially unhappy time in my life was the one when I had the most friends.
Hard disagree, I’ve met some super nice people who have 0 friends because they’re just shy and awkward or have anxiety, or are just plain weird. You can’t expect those people to be open and sociable when they hardly ever talk to people. Add on to that you have to make a huge effort to meet new people when you’re an adult, things being so online, loss of 3rd spaces, and that covid socially stunted so many people.
