I feel like it's so easy to go out and meet people, the difficult part is finding likeminded people who are actually committed to friendship like you are. I've met so many people that I hit it off with right away just to have it fizzle out after talking a while

Sometimes I think we should all take lessons from kids on how to make friends. "You like Pokemon? Oh I like Pokemon too! You're my friend now! Let's play together!" It is as easy and simple as that!

As an adult reaching almost 26 I’ve realized that sometimes being alone is for the better. I have tried making meaningful friendships but for some reason everyone loves drama these days. I’m always let down by people, even when I have no expectations, people still manage to let me down.
I used to invest so much time in my friends before but after realizing not everyone has the same heart you do, I gave up. I feel learning to be your own best friend is the way to go.

i have no girl gang, never did. at 30 now, i realise how difficult it's been for me in terms of loneliness and relationships.

This came at perfect time. It was much needed. All my friends are very masculine and lack any sort of motivation or aspirations. Not that they are bad people to be around but I would love to have a good girlfriends.

I want to add: I am the super extroverted confident women, but this is mostly true in big, unknown groups. I am still scared, that people only want casual friendships with me and are not interested in more. I have actually struggled sometimes with the fact, that people assume that because I am super confident I never struggle or feel insecure, which is simply not true. So when you meet this super confident women and think "she can't possible want to be my friend", she might be thinking the same

This is so random but as an art student I can’t help but notice how beautifully your hair color goes with your eye color and your skin color it’s just such a beautiful palette

As a woman in my thirties I spent the majority of my 20’s embracing my friends above anything else in my life. Now I realize that family is the most important thing. I am lucky that I have great, supportive family that love me unconditionally.

I’m about to turn 25 and have basically no female friends :( my circle has always been small and my best friend from school and I had a falling out back in 2017. I’ve tried to reconnect to no avail. I get stuck in a cycle of depression sometimes and it is soo hard to find the effort to put myself out there and talk to people. Sorry for the rant but I really appreciate the positivity in this video :)

I really needed to hear this. It's been incredibly lonely for me for the past few years after loosing a couple toxic friends I had spent all my time with. I used to cry a lot and feel super sad and now this year I'm making an absolute effort to widen my social circle and be open to meeting others.

This is not just for young women. As an“older“ woman, you find that you perhaps make friends through work but they either don’t deepen or you or they leave and then you lose contact. It is important to try to maintain ties when you move on. As you get older it’s even more important to have good friends and it makes life fun.

I have a handful of close, deep, individual friendships but I do not have a group, and haven't since college. I love it this way because each friendship is so unique and special to me.

[themargaritalife]

I have struggled with this since I graduated college. It's such a relief to know I'm not alone. Defining what kind of friendships I want, resonated with me the most. I never thought about it, but it makes so much sense! Thanks for sharing :)

[normsportillo]

I always felt used by the close friends i had, taken advantage of, and i just couldn't talk about anything that might of bothered me to them, im more at peace now that i don't have a single friend but im trying to make new ones by taking it slow and being the friend i would like my future friend to be

Thank you so much. I really needed this and this was very inspiring. Being in my 30s, it seems nearly impossible to make new friends. Most are married with families, I am not and then of course there are those many friends that have fallen off. I often feel extremely lonely and it's frustrating. This video gave me some good ideas and some hope. Thank you!

Amazing advice! For a while I thought making new friends just wasn't possible. 'My people' just didn't exist. This just isn't true at all! I realized that the only person in the way of new friendships was me, not saying that making new friends is easy in any way. BUT I was having this story in my head that it was better to be lonely, that I friends just weren't for me, that I wasn't social, etc etc. This was only my own fear on repeat, I was closed off, and at that time the relationship with myself wasn't good at all, I was projecting my own self hate on to others, I couldn't be my authentic self because I didn't know who that was. I couldn't be myself around others and that just isn't a good place to start making friends. So I guess making friends goes hand in hand with being more authentic with yourself so you can be authentic with others and built deeper connections.

We need more videos like this! Having friends is still important in every life stage!

Filling my life with volunteering, working a lot, traveling, working out at a gym, indulging in my hobbies & passions. My true friends live far from me, I have no time for flaky people or clingers who only take, never giving.

I have friends in different states and I really miss having a group of female friends to do “girl” stuff with. Love my bf but he can’t give me the feminine energy I crave sometimes lol

I'm so glad I watched this video. I've been feeling so lonely lately because I've been spending so much time home alone and I've realized that I'm only close with 3 people, all of which are close relatives. After watching this video, I feel hopeful about the future of my social life and I feel inspired to seek out ways to find new friends
