- In highschool, you're surrounded by the same few hundreds of people for years so eventually everyone knows everyone at the very least. Very easy to make friendships that last for years, even if you stop being super close over time.
- College is different, thousands of people and the most you'll get outside of your highschool friends is some people inside your major. There's a "competitive" aura around fags if you're in STEM too.
- Outside college, yeah I get the whole shtick of becoming acquaintances with work people, joining muh sports clubs and making friends at the gym.
But do these acquaintances ever evolve into relationships where you will invite one another to things outside of that neutral environment? Only happened to me on occasion.
It seems to me that no one else is in a rush to befriend others- they are content with themselves and what they already have. After I moved to a new city, It is always me reaching out to people, initiating conversations, trying to make plans. After college, guys and ESPECIALLY those cucked in LTR's are more than happy to go home after work and take care of their gf's. They become so whipped it's like they lose all ambition and drive in life.
Ask yourself, when and why would these guys want you to be a close friend? If you are rich, they will surely befriend you behind ulterior motives. If you're ugly, they naturally will want to keep you limited to acquaintances, especially women. If you are good looking: it has a competitive subconscious effect on guys, but you'll do extremely well with female acquaintances.
It's been easier meeting women through bumble and hinge than actually getting new guy friends that are meaningful jfl
Why does it seem as though no one else is really making an effort in socializing except me?
