What you and I consider an authentic connection seem to very different. It's not strictly a numbers game. And I beg differ that it was absolutely easier even just 20 years to meet people and have more meaningful connections. The age of connectivity through artificial means has distanced everyone from society as a whole. People don't put any effort into their relationships anymore and that is the source of the problem from both ends.
- zachsnow 9y agoWhile I absolutely agree re: distance, I think that another reason "20 years ago" resonates is that many of use were younger 20 years ago. And it sure was easier to make friends as a kid.
- chank 9y agoEveryone makes friends a lot easier while in school thats for sure. It's an environment that's very conducive toward doing so. However 20 years ago the primary way people were connecting with one another wasn't through an app or website.
