Gallup poll shows Americans are becoming more isolated with less friendships

Downvote away, but life was much better 40 years ago before computers and social media took over.

Makes sense. Your average human is fricking awful.

And it's going to keep declining.

I see why you don’t have any friends

Bc people suck. frick em

Lol I have been leading this trend for some time

For me it's a phase of my life.

I'm nearing 40, and have a successful, albeit sometimes demanding career. I love what I do and make good money. Then I have 3 kids, all in to extracurriculars. They take up most of my free time. There's just not much time for other people. In fact, I find myself seeking time to take wife out to a nice dinner over random hang outs with other dudes. Bout the only thing we quasi-consistently do is game, but even that is random these days it seems.

And honestly I'm satisfied. Don't feel empty nor isolated.

Well, it's true for me.

I just can't stand to be around most people.
