Hey everyone, I’m 27 and I really want to make friends again
I haven’t really had close friends since I was around 22. For the past few years, I put most of my energy into my career and my relationship. Recently, my girlfriend and I split up, and on top of that, I was diagnosed with a brain tumor. That really changed my perspective on life.
It made me realize I don’t want to just work and go through the motions anymore. I want to actually enjoy life, go out more, connect with people, and build real friendships. The hard part is that now I feel really alone, and I honestly don’t even know where to start.
One thing I struggle with is anxiety around people finding out I don’t really have friends. It makes me want to keep people at a distance because I feel embarrassed about it. But at the same time, I’m tired of living like that, and I know I need to step out of my comfort zone.
For anyone who has been in a similar spot, how did you start meeting people and making genuine friends as an adult?
