@melrobbins: @Jay Shetty, I loved this part of our conversation about making friends as an adult… Hear the full conversation from On Purpose (@On Purpose Podcast) wherever you listen to your favorite podcasts 🎧 “How to Use the ‘Let Them Theory’ (A Life-Changing Mindset Hack That 15 Million People Can’t Stop Talking About)”
As you grow older you realise that there's no such thing as friendship.

I think the shift is that you need to make a conscious effort to maintain the friendship. Although the effort needs to be from both parties. x

As you grow older, you become wiser. Your tolerance for unilateral effort, superficial friendships and disrespect becomes lower.

It’s so easy to make new friends- keep showing up at the same place and interact with others.

And they already have their friend group that developed years ago land you’re new to the city and don’t know anyone. “Infiltrating” a close knit friend group is almost impossible

I believe friends are in your life for a time frame... example its like when you transition jumping on a bus with your friends but you jump off & move to another.... just to jump on another some time down the track & find maybe 1 or 2 friends from the original bus. There & then the cycle goes on... Our energies ( usually our life experiences) change all the time with age. And through changing of buses we meet & greet alot of other ppl in that same cycle.

4 quarters is better than 100 pennies. If a new friendship doesn’t happen naturally then I’m good. 👍🏻

Virtually none of what she said of applies to me. I had few friends when I was young - I was always bullied. Now my best friends I've ever had live out of state but we connect everyday

Isaiah Stewart :
Finding someone that is willing (outside of their solidified life/routine) to put in the same amount of effort as you into building a relationship is tough as an adult
