I find it hard to make real friends period
Saaaame
The way I’ve made true friends is by inviting people to do things on the weekend. A happy hour after work is totally different than asking a coworker/friend from work to get lunch or watch a movie with you on the weekend. As soon as you start making plans completely unrelated to work, that’s the first step to real friendship.
That’s good advice! I became friends w my old ad school buddy only after inviting him to play D&D on the weekends. We’d lived in the same city for yeeeaaars and never connected the dots
I feel like it’s hard to make friends past a certain age. Everyone’s got their own thing going.
That’s because a lot of people fall into the trap of “let’s get a drink”. Which is fun, but temporary. No real shared experiences (unless it’s one of those long nights). Better to have something in common and then do that or something similar to it.
Look for people you can trust to get things done vs making “friends”
The only friends I’ve made is across the isle to other departments.
