I'm gonna be 23 in like a month and a half but I feel like my generation is moving towards what I already accomplished. I'm talking about being alone, pursuing your own life, learning how to hang out with just yourself and not count on others, etc. I'm pretty much a pro at it while people my age are reading articles on how to be alone, or why its good for you or how come you lose friends as you grow up. Shit I'm looking for more friends than before. I know how great it is with the company of just me, myself and I. I know why its good for me considering I'm not a fan of society, especially in my age group. I'm glad I've stayed away after hearing all the complaints and why the new thing now is to just go on by yourself. But it's weird how me and society are craving what the other has. Society or my agegroup wants to learn how to be alone and like it while I want to have that experience of having a bunch of friends or at least that group that I usually go out with and meet others with. So idk if I went backwards in life or society/my age group is going backwards and has it wrong. Who feels me? Is it normal?

    I wasn't aware 23-year-olds were looking up articles on "how to be alone." LOL

    If you really would like to hang out with people and make friends, I would suggest you join some activity clubs. Things like hiking, running, biking canoeing/kayaking or sailing. Even sky diving or fishing, sewing or cooking; anything that interest YOU.
    Then at least you will be hanging out with people who have interests similar to yours, which is a real plus.
    Good luck.
