As an adult I’m only gaining more and more friends tbh. Sure some old ones are lost but a partner is no replacement for a few good friendship circles. If you’re putting all your social needs on one person, that’s a lot of pressure and they are unlikely to be able to fulfill that role, nor are you for them.
Your partner can be your best friend, but they shouldn’t be your only friend
It’s interesting to see people still think that adulthood needs to be lonely. Think a lot of that stems from older generations giving their entire lives to work. But your experience is really similar to mine. My partner and I both have made more friends as we have gotten older than ever before. Weird how that works out
idk i don’t think it’s that weird. As you get older you meet more and more people. Only makes sense that some of those people are gonna be cool and you’ll hang out with them and develop a friendship
