How To Make Friends As An Adult—at Every Life Stage

Chris Duffy isn’t going to sugarcoat it: Making friends as an adult is hard. If you’ve ever tried to figure out exactly how to ask a potential platonic connection for their number—or word that first follow-up text—you know what he’s talking about. “It’s mortifying,” he says. “It requires being vulnerable and cringe-worthy and putting yourself out there.” Social awkwardness aside, it’s simply harder to meet new people as an adult, when you no longer have shared high school classes or a college dorm room.
