Re:Intentionally Making Close Friends on Monday November 28, 2022 @03:06PM (#33778803)
I feel it is relatively easy to make friends during engineering (under grad) when there is no financial responsibilities and you have lot of patience, high level of tolerance. When compared to age where you have more financial responsibility and certain age where you no longer have patience to let go some of things which you do not like in other person. It comes to point where I feel why do I need to compromise on so many things to make friends.
