yep except all my kids are grown. Nothing like waking up and thinking the wife is at work and what am I going to do today by myself
Our youngest is almost 16.
Man those days are awesome. I love having a day where I can do whatever I want and don't have to talk to anyone if I don't want to

Why do I need friends when I can converse with friends on the OT.
When I get disinterested with the conversation or tired, I simply put my phone down.
Pick it back up when I get bored or need some interaction.
Rinse. Repeat.

Nah you probably lack serious self awareness and do a-hole things you don’t even know you are doing. Like not returning your cart, not using your blinker, not parking correctly. Just everyday shite that most of you fricks don’t even care you are fricking over people around you when doing it.

It is also harder to bond and make new friends after the formative years
This. I’m not making any new friends. I have my longtime friends that while we have group threads to talk sports and bullshite, I barely see any more since we all have kids and our own shite to deal with. Things were different when we were all single and bar hopping 3 nights a week.

I'm 44 and probably fit this description. Most of my lifelong friends don't live around here anymore. I mostly just hang out with my family.
Thats me, I joined the Lions Club to hangout, cook and drink a few times a month.

I’m a single man in my 50’s. All I need is my family and maybe five real lifelong friends. I would like a few “lady friends” and that’s it !

Because we get tired of the bullshite.
Posted on 4/19/22 at 7:55 pm to Daygo85
Because you get tired of dealing with stupid people. I know I do.
Posted on 4/19/22 at 7:58 pm to Daygo85
Stay in church. Otherwise, I dare say close friends are few and far between.
Posted on 4/19/22 at 8:03 pm to Daygo85
As you get older and wiser, you realize how stupid/annoying most people are. You don't have time, nor the desire to put up with that shite.

It’s because men do not require social validation, and are secure and content with themselves and their own lives.
Posted on 4/19/22 at 8:04 pm to Daygo85
Because their wives nag them if they try to hang out with their friends. Just becomes not worth the hassle after a while.

I’m 33 and have lunch with a guy in his 50s 4-5 times/year because we have common interest through our faith. Same thing with another guy in his mid 40s. Christ binds.
Posted on 4/19/22 at 8:05 pm to Daygo85
Because we don’t like people.

I have friends that I guess I only get around to hanging out with just a few times a year. We always have fun when we nail down plans and I wonder why we don't do it more often.
I gave up making plans. I get up, make a percolator full of coffee, smoke a bowl and figure it out from there. 365 days a year.

I’m 50. Which for most means I’m at the most responsible part of my life, family and workwise
As you promote thru your career, you become more tied into work. And after a couple of decades you’re just tired.
Of course some friends aren’t so successful and you get bothered by their troubles or stupid shite they’ve been doing for decades. So you avoid / lose some of them.
At mid age you’ve experienced death of friends and family too. That can wear on you too

Pink Floyd said it best in the the song "Time"
When I come home worn and tired, it's good to warm my bones beside the fire.

My high school coach told me one day that in my lifetime you will be able to count the number of true friends you have on one hand. He was right. I'm 67 now and I have two friends that I could count on regardless of the situation and they could count on me. To tell you the truth I'm fine with that. I no longer deal with the daily BS that goes on around everywhere you look. Give me 20 acres in the mountains in Montana and my dog and I'd be the happiest person in the world.
