Making friends as an adult can be tricky

Mike later changed his name to Rowan, became a manager at playtech, hired a guy who looked exactly like Steve, and made his life a living hell.

The ending of this video is actually extremely sad and depressing. Especially if you're an adult who has no friends in real life. He finally gets the courage to ask the guy if he wants to hang out/ be friends and gets shut down immediately. The worst part is they have to work with each other every day still.

It's pretty sad when even the friend zone seems like an unobtainable dream.

"I don't think we should ruin that... with friendship."

The saddest sentence I could hear in the work place :(

“Committed friendship… we catch up every 2-3 weeks. It’s great.”

This is so true for adult friendships 😂

What's worse than being friend zoned?
Mike: Have you ever been colleague zoned?😢

[rachelnelson]

One of my work colleagues just randomly asked "hey, do you want to be my friend?" And 7 years later we're still friends. There is hope people, stay strong

This is akwardly after losing lots of 'fake' friends, it gets harder and harder to find real ones when you are past 35.

The only thing they left out is telling him that he'll make a really good friend for someone, someday. There's a friend out there for him, somewhere.

"I'm already in a friendship." Accurate. The good ppl are taken.

I'm liking that this series has established that it *doesn't* have continuity, just the office location. Gives the crew a chance to literally do any skit they want not tied down to previous skits and expand the range of their work.

Tbh, this is more heartbreaking than a romantic relationship. Having someone tell you that they can't be friends is depressing.

[revelle]

Ouch, that hits way too close to home. It really does feel like that.

[Tripleblade.]

Rowan got colleagued instead of Friendzoned, sad.

This was the hardest VLDL episode I've watched for a while, the awkwardness was almost a physical force... thanks guys, now I'm crying for Mike...

[kashashk]

"I don't think we should ruin that... with friendship."

Sent me reeling!

[firdausridzuan]

I'm starting to like this real life, relatable and painful series.

[ashemgold]

Guys cannot just be colleagues. One of them ALWAYS wants "more". One always wants to be friends. It's biology, mate.

My first words when trying to make friends: “So...you like...stuff?”

[jsnyara]

A few years ago, hanging out with my brother and his kids, his 4 year old walked up to another and she asked another little girl if she wanted to be friends. The other girl said yes and then they went off and played. I was how easy was it as kids, we just choose to make it difficult on our adult selves.
