This is a good video. Since I write on Substack about the Drama Triangle (such as the "victim mentality") I agree that people who are bettering themselves will reject people who want to play "victim" and complain all the time. The issue I have with meeting new people as an adult is that I've changed to a mostly vegan diet and try to stay away from processed foods when I can, as well as living in a rural location. Most of the events around here are centered around eating something (that I can't or won't eat). Also, I don't like alcohol so the bars would never be a consideration for me. And the things I'm interested in don't have classes around here. I may have to find something farther away in a larger city. But I've got other things to deal with before it gets to that point. I do meet people online, but I'd like to find more in-person relationships someday.
Adults are the worst about it. But it's really life changing when you figure out that this is the way to make friends. You gotta go out and try to do things.
Hey Ed, big fan. On RUclips you definitely need to add timestamps to your videos, the algo will push them way more with timestamps
Will do!!
This stuff is gold. Thank you. Truly a helpful plan, and it's so straightforward, but I've never heard it put all this succinctly, in one place.
Happy to help!!

It's a depressing cycle but it's sadly true
Great tips bro 💯💯 Def met some solid dudes at my gym over the years and going to be intentional about growing the friendships.
