In general I say these friends are found as we suffer together through school or summer camp. For those less-fortunate, or who fall out of friendship, I can see an app like this being useful for some. I’m more likely to make friends incidentally, doing something where the focus is not to make friends. An app whose express purpose is connecting people like this might be trying too hard? Maybe not—-dating platforms are useful, for example.
I made some temporary friends during my MMORPG days, time I now consider unhealthily spent.
I hope your project works and helps people find friends—-good luck!
- ivos_android 5y agoThanks for the feedback. I never considered the "trying too hard" aspect. If I understand you correctly, it might be hard for people to broadcast the fact that they are having trouble making friends. Sorry to hear that the friends from the MMORPG days were temporary. Thanks again for the advice.
- meristohm 5y agoOh, I’m not sure I miss them. They were fine friends in the moment, and we could be friends again, but I’m not sure how to find them, one might be dead by now (was an old guy at the time), and I’m happy with the small number of close friends I have now. If they went away for whatever reason I’m confident I can make new friends, and maybe I’d turn to an app like yours, so thanks for your efforts!
