They say that it’s harder to make friends as an adult, and it is, but I think part of the reason is that a lot of people have never known how to make friends.

As a young person, you’re forced to be around people so naturally you’re going to make friends with at least 1 person out of situation.

As an adult, you’re around fewer people so there is less of a chance of that happening. People try and force it through work and hobbies but it makes no difference if you don’t know how to make friends.
