… I mean I was a bridesmaid in my coworkers’ wedding two years ago and she was one in mine last year. I’d say most fall into the category you say, but that’s not necessarily the blanket statement for all 😉
What if we’re sleeping together?

What if we're friendly after hours? 😏

I routinely go on girls trips with my current coworkers and ex-coworkers too. Maybe there’s a reason YOUR coworkers don’t want to be your friend and it’s turned you into a bitter Betty.
This is true. Had a coworker played nice but gave me shit rating on scatterplot when I was 2 months into the firm as a new hire. The hell!?

At my last job, I would have said I had various work friends - we went to bars and even took some trips together. When I quit to work here, literally none of them ever texted me again and I tried to reach out unsuccessfully. Two years later one texted me asking for a referral. Not real friends.
As soon as someone gets a new job the communication stops and your back to being strangers.

You sound like a bitter coworker. The truth is it just depends. Some are some aren't - at least for most people, sorry you haven't found anyone to connect with at work
Hot take. You’re not a real friend
My first job out of college, two coworkers and I are having lunch. One coworker said "I'd hate for the team to get bigger and disrupt our friendship" the other coworker responded "we're not friends, we're forced acquaintances". I'll always remember how much I appreciated her candor.
