To me it just sounds like he needs more friends to fill the gaps. Why can't he bring a friend to the zoo? Why does it have to be a girlfriend? I've had long stretches of my life where I was single but I was rarely ever lonely. I was aside from some rare moment rather well surrounded.
- shadowfax80 10y agoAsking your friends to hang out after a certain age just feels juvenile.
- pconner 10y agoInherently, or just due to societal expectations? I'm guessing it's the latter.

- cfreeman 10y agoThat seems bizarre to me, why? I mean, certainly it's harder because everyone is busy with adult responsibilities, but why can't you still get together with friends from time to time?
- hkmurakami 10y agoI do think it becomes harder to do this as said friends all get hitched. As a single guy I rarely see the same friends male or Female, who are now married. As a couple they gravitate towards spending time with other couples too. This doesn't preclude anyone from making things happen (our childhood friend group still meets up away from our SOs), but it does get harder as the years pile on.
