close friendship

I realized, by the age of 25, that I needed to make new friends, and I needed to make them fast. Making friends as an adult is hard.

Raise your hand if you feel like you want to make new friends as an adult, but have no idea how anymore. Oh, good. It’s not just me.

The thing is, as you get older, it gets harder and harder to make new mates and maintaining your old friendships can be tricky too. You get busy in your new life, you’re not talking to each other as often, and slowly bit by bit, you start to lose touch. Your friendship becomes a victim of circumstance. Although there have been ups and downs, this is how we’ve learnt to keep our friendship alive.
