Has anyone made real friends outside of high school/college?

Has anyone here actually made friends outside of school? I hear tons of advice but does anyone actually have a personal story of how they made friends? I'm talking about real friends that invite you to parties and shit. Not just gym buddies or acquaintances.

Nope.

You really need time to bond with someone. And that is quite easy in school or at a job what basically forces you. But when it comes to gym buddies or acquaintances you just need to spend time with them.

no, i'm pretty sure 99% of people with friends, their friends are either from school or their work place

What's a good workplace to make friends from? I went to 6 different schools due to retarded parents so couldn't make any long-term friends.

idk what's a good workplace for making friends tbh i'm only 16 so i have zero idea about that, but i know for a fact most friends are made at school or at your job

It is very, very difficult to find "friends" outside of school / university after a certain age. After this time, most people don't want / need more people in their social environment. I only made new friends through hobbies like fishing and fitness.

It's completely over for me then.

Fast food

 

[quakociaptockh]

No, and you realize that people from high school arent't your friends either.

 

[Gonthar]

Yes, the brother of a friend from high-school. We went to his house often to play video games and watch movies, so eventually I became even closer friends with his brother. But we were all nerds so no parties or shit...
Also back in my time, you could easily make friends with the other people living in the same building, there was no Internet back then, not many TV channels, my town was relatively small, and there very few bars, clubs or recreational places, there was literally nothing to do inside so most people just stayed outside almost from morning until evening, every building had some benches were people sat, discussed, played cards, chess, etc., so you could easily make friends with your neighbors especially if you were about the same age.

"Friends" are just people with somewhat shared interest over a given period of time.

School and work is the majority of life.

Then you have the socialites who cope by doing degenerate activities on the weekend (aka bars + clubs).

Then you have the illusion of socialization via internet.

What I've learned is that you have to force yourself to maneuver interpersonally with those you might not particularly care for just to avoid going insane from loneliness.

We're all using each other. Interdependency.

Don't think so. Those are acquaintances. Friends hang out with each other and do activities outside of their common place (school, work, etc).

I'm lucky to have my friends outside of highschool who sticked with me, basically I cut toxic people from my life and treat my homies right

Yeah, they come and go. They're very easy to make when you live a nomadic lifestyle, but when they're gone you usually never see them again.

How'd you meet them?

 

[Deleted member 8244]

How'd you meet them?

I met them in highschool but generally meeting people is probably possible through common interests, clubs and activities like that. shared interests are pretty good to start and showing interest and getting contact info to stay in touch is important.

I went up to this lake recently and talked for 30 minutes with this guy about melee. and also maybe you can meet people through a job

Yeah but thanks to friends that I’ve met from school. Otherwise it’s pretty hard. Especially if you’re in your thirties or more

 

[sdmaster]

Basketball court lol.

 

[jewelsandtools]

How do people even make "true" friends in college? In high school yeah, real freinds can be made cus ur only like 14 but from like day 1 of college everyone just wanted to party, you don't make true friends by partying.

Maybe it's cus im an introvert but I only have like 1 true friend in my life. It just feels like everyone either is a snake or is only there for a good time.

 

[lowenergy7pslmanlet]

you don't make true friends by partying.

why not?

 

[EverythingMaxxer]

Outside of school/work how I make friends is at gyms, clubs, bars, and friends of friends.

How do you make friends at the gym? Seems like everyone just lifts on their own. Do you mean basketball/tennis or something?

 

[Deleted member 8244]

Are you on a nofap streak rn? And for how long? When was the last time you tapped? (Sorry my brain is in autism mode and I need this data for my theory and to cope with the lake of T in it rn)

Real friends are a meme. I just mean friends that you see outside of work/school/location you met them.

I come up to people and start conversations. I comment on their shoes or clothes or the exercise they’re doing just random shit

[irrumator praetor]

Find a profession where social circles are made such as being a doctor, ect

Pick up basketball.

Basketball has a culture more immersed in NT shit (girls, parties and sht) compared to other sports.

Already played it. Basketball doesn't work for geeky white boys. All my teammates were thugmaxxed Tyrones and wanted nothing to do with me.

21.

 

[Essonerian]

I literally went to a party that was announced on 4chan, its getting easier now because loners will find each other through web no matter what age

and if someone is such a miserable cunt that work prevents them from wanting any new connections past school you don't want them anyway (they tend to be total drones)
