This has gotta be one of SNL’s most accurate skits yet. Remember that I started off laughing at the skit when it first aired, but by the end I couldn’t help but feel conscious of my own friendships. I’m a thirty-one year old guy and the older I get, the more I’m aware of how small my circle of friends has gotten. Whether the size is for the better or the worse isn’t important, it’s the fact that because male intimacy is seen as weak and frowned upon, it’s gotten harder to make new friends. I can’t even begin to explain how difficult it is to try and make friends with guys in hobbies that interest me 😞 this social issue really isn’t spoken about enough and I wish there were more opportunities for this topic to be brought up on a national level
Honestly, I feel it's more of a society thing than a male thing. When guys are in school/college, they can absolutely make a ton of friends. It's just the structure of society when you become an adult, your opportunities to make new friends is frankly non existent outside of work.
My husband has so many friends from his band days we started a 70's music festival called Geezerfest so they could all reconnect with each other and perform together again . We've been doing it for 16 years and it's now become one of our city's biggest summer events. We've reunited countless musicians who's local bands once played regularly before live bands were largely replaced by DJ's. Seeing the life force of these talented and seasoned musicians reignite on stage in front of a crowd is one of the greatest things I've ever witnessed. It's been a testament of what connecting with people who share a common bond can do for the soul and how much we all need that as we get older.
This would be a good idea for women too. Not every woman makes friends easily especially if you're introverted. Mindy Kaling once joked it's easier to find someone to date than it is a good friend.
Right? My boyfriend sent this to me, but because I am the one that behaves like the guys in the beginning. He has friends and socializes while I never leave the house as I work from home.
OMG SO TRUE. As an autistic-adhd woman with a bad childood..i'm used to either being secretive or overexplaining/talking too much...sometimes both. Ever since i was a young kid, ive attracted abusive, unsupportive, narcissistic women like my mom, aunt, grandma and great aunts as close friends. It's pretty bad. Lifelong problem im trying to escape
This sketch would have leveled up if there was a “senior” section for recently retired men. I still work and when I get home, he’s like damn Jack Russel as soon as I step in the door… 😩
Same for my mom when her husband retired. She said you need guy friends. She pushed him and helped him set up guys only poker nights, and golfing on tuesdays. He gets alone time with his male friends now (some of which were her friend's husbands to start). He's much more well adjusted and gets to vent, including about her. So ladies, hook your men up with playdates! Just be honest they need male bonding too. They all secretly want it, even the shy ones just need fellow introvert males.
My wife and I will be empty nesters in a couple of years. This past weekend, she started in with the we need to carve out time to do things together talk, so we don't just end up sitting around starting at each other when that happens. I get it, and she's absolutely right, but 75% of me was like "can't I just sit here on the couch?", and the other 25% was going "so I guess I'm never taking the canoe out just by myself again, huh?"
My favorite thing about the sketch is the comments all genuinely relating to this instead of being butthurt. And I can relate myself. I moved to a new city after my divorce and I can tell you it's hard to make other male friends, especially working remotely. . I've luckily ended up making some female friends through dating apps that didn't lead to dating, but I miss my guy buds. Not in a mysogynistic "no girls allowed" kind of way, but just shooting the shit with the bros. It's special and all my dudes are back home. And when people ask if I've made male friends out here I tell them no because I have no clue how when there's no school or work social climate to connect over. It makes me pretty sad. I kind of made one guy friend but we never hang out bc he's always busy with work or his girlfriend. This needs to be a real thing! I'd love an open and warm guy bonding zone to meet new friends!
This makes me think of the days before the Pandemic, when it was normal for strangers to talk to eachother in public. .. If you talk to a stranger nowadays, there's usually a bit of attitude, containing bottled up anger & all the frustrations of life.
I feel like actually creating a space in park that was for “meeting new people” would be a cool concept. Like just being in that area carried the implication that you are open to talking to strangers? I would like to just meet more people but it always feels like your interrupting or creeping just to talk to some one in public.
I need this in real life. It’s just so hard to walk up to other people and just go, “wanna be friends?” As a teenager. I want this for girls who are lonely.
This really hits home. It’s incredible how men fall into this state of loneliness of friendships apart from their partners. I had lots of friends when I was young and have a lot of old time friends, but as an adult it’s been pretty hard forming these new bonds. It’s a mix of a lack of time, social events and COVID has kept us isolated and at home.
Amen to that. I have trouble forming adult relationships now, too. And that's made all the more difficult by the pandemic because now I'm working from home, going to church and serving God From Home, and even a few social interactions have been via Zoom FROM HOME. My biggest adventure is checking the mail and once a week driving 3 miles to get my car washed. I don't even take out the trash much because my son stops by every few days to grab it. Weird times we live in, Brothah Antonio.
women are alot more fake when it comes to making friends going so far as to exaggerate their compliments and attempt to gain things in common as fast as possible.
"we're not even engaged yet" is such an underappreciated line on this, lol. This and the "I'm almost Thirty!" Line from the cold open are her perfect delivery lol
This would be pretty cool, lol. There would definitely be fights about everything from football to cartoons to word pronunciation, too. Maybe three size classes? And a water hose?
Fascinating to see how many of us men can relate to what’s being portrayed here. What keeps us from creating it for ourselves? Why are so many of us at home wishing we had friends and connections like that?
> What keeps us from creating it for ourselves? Fear, mostly. Either fear of failure, or fear of judgment. > Why are so many of us at home wishing we had friends and connections like that? Because social intimacy is crucial for survival (you can literally die of loneliness), but we're socialized to have competitive relationships with each other. Intimacy makes you vulnerable, and most of us grow up being told to "be a man" whenever we experience vulnerability. We're so afraid of being weak that we're killing ourselves over it.
What's keeping us from creating it for ourselves? There's a lot going on there, but a big part of it is probably far too many of us being far too worried about what other people think. Develop a few interests that demand effort out of you - something that would give you a chance to work together with the friends you'll make - and meet people through those interests. Then, when somebody calls you a "man child" because you have something in your life other than family and work, unless that somebody IS family, laugh, dismiss them, and walk off.
Plenty of places were already built up for men, by men, specifically for the reasons described in this video. But many of these places were deemed problematic because they were "guy only" clubs and were subsequently bullied out of existence, or made to be "inclusive". Thus taking away the places that now women are complaining about that men should have. You literally can't win.
@@markusallport1276 I feel like that's an issue perpetuated by straight men. Vageen is heavily prioritized. Never seen a "women get in free" at the gay clubs I've been to.
@@ignaciocortez7028 goes to show that there are a lot of societal expectations of behavior that can stifle all sorts of people from making healthy social environments for themselves. It seems many people struggle to make genuine and healthy connections to others, in part, because of the culture of social media being so central to child and teen development (when we are supposed to learn social skills) and the loud media presentations of what a perfect person should be like. There's not enough proper education on what is healthy and appropriate social behavior and what is not. Although that issue does seem to be progressing towards improvement as more people discuss it more openly.
@@AndrewVelonis They have parks for the geezers. Called McDonalds, Tim Hortons (in Canada), Panera, Starbucks, and any other fast food joint and coffee shop.
I feel personally attacked but also kind of disappointed this isn’t a thing. How do you make new friends as an adult? Never went to college, completely an entrepreneur and make money on my own, my work makes it so I don’t have co-workers… my girlfriend is also my only friend lmao
@@lukebryant5017 I disagree. Both are good but quite different vibes with some similarities. Uncle Daycare may have helped inspire this sketch, which is cool!
Funny. So I used to live nearby where this was shot on the Hudson. There was a huge grass lot that was private property but was being used as an illegal dog park. I met my best friend there, I saw the tattoos and we were like, “veteran?” …”angry?”…” can’t sleep?”….” Best friends?”
@@matthewbryant3992 With men it’s more information focussed on a specific obsession of the day/ week. With women it’s usually a recapture of the day in a he said/ she said manner.
This is a great skit but seriously we need this. The more and more I really talk with my guy friends I realize that the wall we put up is crumbling. We need a space to help not to rebuild the wall but to make sure the foundation is sound. 👍🏾
@@Leboobs22 I’m a bit older but even when I useto play video games we would go and walk and get the games talk about what we were going through then go back to someone house and play until Moms callled. I didn’t realize how much we as guys go through until I opened up and talked with guys. We now do this just as random as this video. I guess that’s why it hit so close to home. Literally today just talked about venom 2 aka “marvel marvel marvel “.
As sad as this is, it kinda is one of my biggest fears about growing older. My dad never had any friends when I was growing up and it really didn't help his untreated depression. This idea that to be masculine you need to be alone is so damaging and is unfortunately something that doesn't seem to be going away. Even now as I actively try to fight against those ideas of masculinity I still find it difficult to talk to my male friends about my emotions or being in a tough spot. It makes me really sad that my closest friend doesn't know anything about how I'm feeling on a day to day basis. All of this is to say we got to keep trying, fellas. We're not alone out there, we gotta support each other and try our best to grow out of this shit. I hope you guys all find your connections soon.
i think another skit that brings this home is "straight best friend" one part the dude apologizes for being 'weird' or off or whatever and then he adds the line about the thing that happened (don't wanna spoil it but it was a tragedy thing). and i blinked, and was like holy fkk, this is my one friend ______. he had something like that and i didnt hear about it for like a month. there's definitely a culture of sort of being isolated even with your bros because they don't know shit about anything. it's changing, you can see the younger generation bunking some of that. all you can do tho is give your bros a chance. you can bring up stuff going on with you, and ask about stuff going on with them. sometimes it's awkward. but sometimes ppl just need time to get used to something new and that it's actually ok. kinda sad, but i had to do this with my dad, to an extent. i'm his kid and he couldn't really say ilu. but i just started saying it one day whenever getting off the phone. and after a while he started doing that too. and later, it didn't even sound awkward. we gotta give people permission to open up, sometimes by opening up first. and if it keeps not working out, it's ok, maybe that person just isn't capable. but at least you gave it a shot.
It's interesting watching my dad over 40 years. Similar to your dad mine never seemed to have any friends, but when I was young, my dad worked a 9-5 dealing with tough people. Even though he enjoyed the work he did, when he came home, he just wanted to chill with our family, would take the phone off the hook (old landline) and shut the front door (all signals that we weren't open socially to neighborly callers). He couldn't get much personal space to himself because we were young and involved in sports and other things that occupied his free time. He would help someone out if needed, but didn't seem to want to socialize and at that time it entailed a long phone call or meeting in person...not quick text messages, no video chats, no email or social media. He loved sports, for example, but would prefer to watch the Superbowl on our crummy 27" inch TV after he turned down a neighbor's invitation to watch the game at his house on a big screen TV with surround sound to the point where it was like you were on the field. He even liked the neighbor! I never understood it until now that I am older and working a job dealing with tough people. My little bit of free time, I want to be with my existing friends and family or simply by myself. My dad, now that he has been retired for 25 years and has it pretty good with leisure and such, he is super social on his own terms. He chats with strangers at local events, meets old work friends for lunch every wednesday, and is just way more talkative than I ever knew him to be. The only thing that changed is that he doesn't have to work anymore or be concerned about surviving day-to-day, and he has more social energy. His social battery still gets drained even from pleasant interactions, but it's not forced like having to work to make ends meet for a family while securing a stable retirement. Much of my "social" life is getting paid to help people, and while I don't actively seek out new friends, I am fortunate enough to have a few old friends that I can text goofy things to throughout the week and thankfully we can talk about serious, personal things as well. I personally can only handle a small group of close knit friends/family so I am good where I am at, but I certainly hope others struggling can find what they are looking for somewhere out there, especially now that the social universe is much more open than it ever has been before (ex. there's a REDDIT for virtually everyone).
Dude. I had to hang out with my gf’s friends husband. In the first 10 mins I asked if he liked Marvel, and he said, “Nah, never seen any of them.” We didn’t say anything to each other for the next two hours.
@@Nickel138 I have to watch half the mcu movies alone… I only have 2 friends who likes them but they got wives and little kids, the rest are "too grown up for this". And my gf doesn’t care either. The longer it goes the more this whole adulting things just suck.
I’m a girl but I relate to this too much. I love this idea. Making adult friends is a nightmare. I literally bombard my husband with geek shit every day.
Same! I have read ALL of Frank Herbert's Dune and the most of the series by Brian Herbert and I literally put my new hubby asleep talking about the finer points and details the movie missed...It was 4 in the afternoon😅
@@ttthecat that is some heavy reading, well done! I have insomnia so mine ends up being a captive audience the moment he wakes up on nights I can’t sleep. I’m worried he WAS a Spider-Man fan until he had to put up with my NWH theories every few days for 45 minutes before his coffee kicks in and he can verbally defend himself. Thank god for him Dexter is back. He gets a tiny break. 🤣
I do this too, but I try not to. He has a lot of friends and he talks to some of them daily but I don't have friends and I'm too afraid to try, tbh. He has no interest in my hobbies or passions, so typically I do things that I love, like concerts or art/diy projects, by myself. I feel like making friends as an adult is just not possible anymore after a certain age because you have no shared experiences. Idk maybe I'm just being pessimistic.
@@i.dont.read.replies I'm grateful that mine is a geek too, but, we are just on different wavelengths on what our "things" are. I got to a point where (at least in my area) i realized socializing beyond like a bar or work is really overwhelming if not, impossible. I feel that pessimism on a deep level. You are not alone. It also doesn't hurt that soooo much conversation happens in places like this... social media. And its just not the same as being able to look someone in the eyes or grab coffee together.
As someone that will spontaneously talk to my gf, for hours about random trivia, 80s movies, video games, science facts, and working out, as soon as I see her; I think we would both benefit a visit to the Man Park.
I'll be honest, it's embarrassing how hard this hits home and that I had zero idea that the possible reason why I blabber so much to her is because I had no one to talk to for like 3 days.
When we women get into a long term relationship we are issued with an "uh huh" machine. After a while, I stopped wondering why my husband was showing me photos in magazines of different types of bicycle gears ("blah blah blah Shimano") and just switched on the machine. "Uh huh...uh huh..."
@@MarcillaSmith You may be kidding, but I'm an old feminist psychologist and I found this bit brilliant...it sends up and takes down the toxic expectations for American masculinity in a hilarious and poignant way. All those little side voiceovers give it away.

Man, the grocery store and gas station are not places to try to make friends. Find an activity you like and try to meet others through that. Disc golf, golf, any sport really, try to learn an instrument and find other musicians looking for people to play with, etc.
@@Ethan-yz7lc because it's the internet and without an /s, sarcasm often fails to translate. Socially awkward people are also very common, so I assumed you were that. No way to tell otherwise without that/s. I was just trying to be nice.
Seriously though, there is a dire need for more ways to build community in the US. There's a high reliance on churches to do a lot of the heavy lifting - which means non-religious people tend to get left out. And that's... manageable in a big city with a lot of socializing opportunities, but for people who neither are religious nor in any other community setting... it's really hard to get started. Especially these last two years.
I’m not sure if you like FB considering the scandal, but FB groups, as long as you agree with the rules and the groups values, are a great place to make friends, or at least be a part of a community. There are FB groups for everything! Anything you can imagine. It’s worth a try.
I feel you. But being part of church doesn't necessarily help either. I'm dedicated to my service to God and we have Zoom Bible Study, prayer calls and stuff like that. But even though I'm an introvert that doesn't really like being around a lot of people, I still feel isolated even during those zoom calls. It isn't conducive to making actual FRIENDS. As a result, my down time - ironically - is spent watching Marvel movies and shows.
@@purplehood8418 no, facebook groups are HORRIBLE. ppl often are messed up, disproportionately represented are those with issues, addicts, liars/cheaters/posers, unemployed, disabled and so on; a small few always try to monopolize the groups...ppl on social media REFusE to ever meet you even after years, they act weird etc. I need face to face to screen out the weirdos anyway

This would be a good idea for women too. Not every woman makes friends easily especially if you're introverted. Mindy Kaling once joked it's easier to find someone to date than it is a good friend.
Right? My boyfriend sent this to me, but because I am the one that behaves like the guys in the beginning. He has friends and socializes while I never leave the house as I work from home.

OMG SO TRUE. As an autistic-adhd woman with a bad childood..i'm used to either being secretive or overexplaining/talking too much...sometimes both. Ever since i was a young kid, ive attracted abusive, unsupportive, narcissistic women like my mom, aunt, grandma and great aunts as close friends. It's pretty bad. Lifelong problem im trying to escape

Uhm, doesn't John seem a little overly 'festive?'

This sketch would have leveled up if there was a “senior” section for recently retired men. I still work and when I get home, he’s like damn Jack Russel as soon as I step in the door… 😩
Aww poor you but not really. That's tough but super hilarious at the same time!! 😆🐕🐾🐾
Same for my mom when her husband retired. She said you need guy friends. She pushed him and helped him set up guys only poker nights, and golfing on tuesdays. He gets alone time with his male friends now (some of which were her friend's husbands to start). He's much more well adjusted and gets to vent, including about her. So ladies, hook your men up with playdates! Just be honest they need male bonding too. They all secretly want it, even the shy ones just need fellow introvert males.
So besides having a large and small section, it needed an old section too
LOL!
My wife and I will be empty nesters in a couple of years. This past weekend, she started in with the we need to carve out time to do things together talk, so we don't just end up sitting around starting at each other when that happens. I get it, and she's absolutely right, but 75% of me was like "can't I just sit here on the couch?", and the other 25% was going "so I guess I'm never taking the canoe out just by myself again, huh?"
We need a man park in every town. I need friends
My favorite thing about the sketch is the comments all genuinely relating to this instead of being butthurt. And I can relate myself. I moved to a new city after my divorce and I can tell you it's hard to make other male friends, especially working remotely. .
I've luckily ended up making some female friends through dating apps that didn't lead to dating, but I miss my guy buds. Not in a mysogynistic "no girls allowed" kind of way, but just shooting the shit with the bros. It's special and all my dudes are back home.
And when people ask if I've made male friends out here I tell them no because I have no clue how when there's no school or work social climate to connect over. It makes me pretty sad. I kind of made one guy friend but we never hang out bc he's always busy with work or his girlfriend.
This needs to be a real thing! I'd love an open and warm guy bonding zone to meet new friends!
It would be great if this were a real thing. Making new friends as an adult in a relationship is very difficult.

I feel like actually creating a space in park that was for “meeting new people” would be a cool concept. Like just being in that area carried the implication that you are open to talking to strangers?

this is actually wholesome
I need this in real life. It’s just so hard to walk up to other people and just go, “wanna be friends?” As a teenager. I want this for girls who are lonely.
This really hits home. It’s incredible how men fall into this state of loneliness of friendships apart from their partners. I had lots of friends when I was young and have a lot of old time friends, but as an adult it’s been pretty hard forming these new bonds. It’s a mix of a lack of time, social events and COVID has kept us isolated and at home.
Amen to that. I have trouble forming adult relationships now, too. And that's made all the more difficult by the pandemic because now I'm working from home, going to church and serving God From Home, and even a few social interactions have been via Zoom FROM HOME. My biggest adventure is checking the mail and once a week driving 3 miles to get my car washed. I don't even take out the trash much because my son stops by every few days to grab it.

Water hose! LMAO!! "Break it up, boys!"
Fascinating to see how many of us men can relate to what’s being portrayed here. What keeps us from creating it for ourselves? Why are so many of us at home wishing we had friends and connections like that?
The internet shook everything about our world way, way up.
I'll be fixing that, too. 🔑❤️🔥
> What keeps us from creating it for ourselves?
Fear, mostly. Either fear of failure, or fear of judgment.
> Why are so many of us at home wishing we had friends and connections like that?
Because social intimacy is crucial for survival (you can literally die of loneliness), but we're socialized to have competitive relationships with each other. Intimacy makes you vulnerable, and most of us grow up being told to "be a man" whenever we experience vulnerability. We're so afraid of being weak that we're killing ourselves over it.
What's keeping us from creating it for ourselves? There's a lot going on there, but a big part of it is probably far too many of us being far too worried about what other people think.
Develop a few interests that demand effort out of you - something that would give you a chance to work together with the friends you'll make - and meet people through those interests. Then, when somebody calls you a "man child" because you have something in your life other than family and work, unless that somebody IS family, laugh, dismiss them, and walk off.
Plenty of places were already built up for men, by men, specifically for the reasons described in this video. But many of these places were deemed problematic because they were "guy only" clubs and were subsequently bullied out of existence, or made to be "inclusive". Thus taking away the places that now women are complaining about that men should have. You literally can't win.

I thought thats what bars were for...
@@ignaciocortez7028 goes to show that there are a lot of societal expectations of behavior that can stifle all sorts of people from making healthy social environments for themselves. It seems many people struggle to make genuine and healthy connections to others, in part, because of the culture of social media being so central to child and teen development (when we are supposed to learn social skills) and the loud media presentations of what a perfect person should be like. There's not enough proper education on what is healthy and appropriate social behavior and what is not. Although that issue does seem to be progressing towards improvement as more people discuss it more openly.
I was going to say I wish I had this for my boyfriend

more brilliant writing, love it
As sad as this is, it kinda is one of my biggest fears about growing older. My dad never had any friends when I was growing up and it really didn't help his untreated depression. This idea that to be masculine you need to be alone is so damaging and is unfortunately something that doesn't seem to be going away. Even now as I actively try to fight against those ideas of masculinity I still find it difficult to talk to my male friends about my emotions or being in a tough spot. It makes me really sad that my closest friend doesn't know anything about how I'm feeling on a day to day basis. All of this is to say we got to keep trying, fellas. We're not alone out there, we gotta support each other and try our best to grow out of this shit. I hope you guys all find your connections soon.
i think another skit that brings this home is "straight best friend" one part the dude apologizes for being 'weird' or off or whatever and then he adds the line about the thing that happened (don't wanna spoil it but it was a tragedy thing). and i blinked, and was like holy fkk, this is my one friend ______. he had something like that and i didnt hear about it for like a month.
there's definitely a culture of sort of being isolated even with your bros because they don't know shit about anything. it's changing, you can see the younger generation bunking some of that. all you can do tho is give your bros a chance. you can bring up stuff going on with you, and ask about stuff going on with them. sometimes it's awkward. but sometimes ppl just need time to get used to something new and that it's actually ok.
kinda sad, but i had to do this with my dad, to an extent. i'm his kid and he couldn't really say ilu. but i just started saying it one day whenever getting off the phone. and after a while he started doing that too. and later, it didn't even sound awkward.
we gotta give people permission to open up, sometimes by opening up first. and if it keeps not working out, it's ok, maybe that person just isn't capable. but at least you gave it a shot.
It's interesting watching my dad over 40 years. Similar to your dad mine never seemed to have any friends, but when I was young, my dad worked a 9-5 dealing with tough people. Even though he enjoyed the work he did, when he came home, he just wanted to chill with our family, would take the phone off the hook (old landline) and shut the front door (all signals that we weren't open socially to neighborly callers). He couldn't get much personal space to himself because we were young and involved in sports and other things that occupied his free time. He would help someone out if needed, but didn't seem to want to socialize and at that time it entailed a long phone call or meeting in person...not quick text messages, no video chats, no email or social media. He loved sports, for example, but would prefer to watch the Superbowl on our crummy 27" inch TV after he turned down a neighbor's invitation to watch the game at his house on a big screen TV with surround sound to the point where it was like you were on the field. He even liked the neighbor! I never understood it until now that I am older and working a job dealing with tough people. My little bit of free time, I want to be with my existing friends and family or simply by myself. My dad, now that he has been retired for 25 years and has it pretty good with leisure and such, he is super social on his own terms. He chats with strangers at local events, meets old work friends for lunch every wednesday, and is just way more talkative than I ever knew him to be. The only thing that changed is that he doesn't have to work anymore or be concerned about surviving day-to-day, and he has more social energy. His social battery still gets drained even from pleasant interactions, but it's not forced like having to work to make ends meet for a family while securing a stable retirement. Much of my "social" life is getting paid to help people, and while I don't actively seek out new friends, I am fortunate enough to have a few old friends that I can text goofy things to throughout the week and thankfully we can talk about serious, personal things as well. I personally can only handle a small group of close knit friends/family so I am good where I am at, but I certainly hope others struggling can find what they are looking for somewhere out there, especially now that the social universe is much more open than it ever has been before (ex. there's a REDDIT for virtually everyone).
If only everyone could be as supportive as Chloe and shy Kyle :’)

I do this too, but I try not to. He has a lot of friends and he talks to some of them daily but I don't have friends and I'm too afraid to try, tbh. He has no interest in my hobbies or passions, so typically I do things that I love, like concerts or art/diy projects, by myself. I feel like making friends as an adult is just not possible anymore after a certain age because you have no shared experiences. Idk maybe I'm just being pessimistic.

It also doesn't hurt that soooo much conversation happens in places like this... social media. And its just not the same as being able to look someone in the eyes or grab coffee together.

I'll be honest, it's embarrassing how hard this hits home and that I had zero idea that the possible reason why I blabber so much to her is because I had no one to talk to for like 3 days.

Seriously though, there is a dire need for more ways to build community in the US. There's a high reliance on churches to do a lot of the heavy lifting - which means non-religious people tend to get left out. And that's... manageable in a big city with a lot of socializing opportunities, but for people who neither are religious nor in any other community setting... it's really hard to get started. Especially these last two years.
I’m not sure if you like FB considering the scandal, but FB groups, as long as you agree with the rules and the groups values, are a great place to make friends, or at least be a part of a community. There are FB groups for everything! Anything you can imagine. It’s worth a try.
I feel you. But being part of church doesn't necessarily help either. I'm dedicated to my service to God and we have Zoom Bible Study, prayer calls and stuff like that. But even though I'm an introvert that doesn't really like being around a lot of people, I still feel isolated even during those zoom calls. It isn't conducive to making actual FRIENDS. As a result, my down time - ironically - is spent watching Marvel movies and shows.
also volunteer opportunities like feeding the poor etc
