>>1290045>early 30's in the South>half your friends from high school are dead, 1/4th via suicide>the other half has already gotten married, had kids, and divorced>but they drink heavily stillThe solution to OP's problem is to get new friends. Meetup might work. I have had zero luck with it but I live in a tech-dead region where people are afraid of social media. I got lucky by having a recently divorced neighbor make me brownies one day and she had all the same hobbies. I've just gotten really good at being alone on outings and not caring about the dying so much. My last trip I got stranded on a tidal island by myself.
