Once you get past 27 , you can't really make new friends.

friendship is a younger man's game

best you'll get past 27 is couples friends or coworkers that you talk about sports with, and past your mid 30s it will be exclusively the parents of children that are friends with your children, and you make stilted small talk with someone you have absolutely no compatibility with, while sitting within earshot of your kids who choose their friendships based on the age of the other person

If you're not looking for any honest discussion, agreement, meeting halfway or middle ground, don't bother arguing with me. Selfish narcissists need not apply.

I will date you. Problem solved!

...so as a banker, can you get me blueprints to your bank and tell me the best way to get in and out of the vault undetected? Just out of curiosity.

I mean I guess there are people at work I could consider friends, but they are kind of more like "work friends" or whatever. I haven't made any "real" new friends since my early 20's that I can think of. At 35 its hard to find time to do stuff even with old friends, with family and stuff.
