Why is it harder to make friend as an adult? Reward $2
Created by au52, 1648 days ago, 1598 views
Have you found that it is easier to make friends when we are children? While that becomes much harder after we grow up to be an adult. Do you know the reason?

√ Best Answer 1 MarianaM211647 days ago @au52 Well, at least in my social enviroment we are told not to mix work with personal life. I don't mean it's imposible to have a colleague that becomes your friend, but I find it difficult. Also because you usually talk about work, which is your first thing in common, and it's complicated to trust in a colleague deep enough that you have completely confidence that your "friendly comments" won't scape his or her mounth. Other reason may be that it takes patience and determination to find more things in common with them other than work and let's face it, the least you want in your personal life is to continue talking about work issues.

2 pustoi111648 days ago in my view, all a matter of interest. in the interests of the child, rather narrow. The older we get, the more options. here and begin differences. and friendship, all the same, implies what that community.

3 dbarskey061648 days ago I think that part of it is that as children we have not yet learned not to trust others. As we age, trust is easily broken and we become very wary of being hurt.

5 yas1648 days ago There are several reasons for this, but I think the main reason is that children are still curious, open-minded, okay with being vulnerable and learning new things. As adults we have formed our opinions, our minds are more closed, we are afraid to be vulnerable, afraid of getting hurt and no longer so trusting as children. And to form friendships we need those child qualities. But unfortunately, we lose them as we get older.

7 MarianaM211648 days ago I think the main reason is that we no longer have to attend to school or the university. When we're a student we spend most of our time with our classmates and the work tends make people find bonds with those peers we can rely on to face the school challenges. Apart from those, we adults have almost no free time, due to our job and new responsabilities. The work enviroment usually gets a bit competitive, so we no longer seek for people to rely on, but keep more things to ourselfs in order not to fail against our coworkers.

11 zrodfects1647 days ago When younger your still working out your interest as most kids would say something like when I grow up i'm going to be a policeman, yet before the end of their teenage years your either doing something completely different or in trouble with the law. As for trusting when younger you tend to trust anyone with anything most of the time which is why you lend stuff out they will keep it, when older they just miss place it.

15 pustoi111647 days ago in childhood, we are more open, the outside world. growing up, gaining experience, we learn to not trust. including childhood friends.

18 ZzMrXzZ1647 days ago Nope, it's not the standard for making friends, but as we grow up, we tend to believe less and doubt more. After all the fail relationships, we would ask ourselves what they want to make friend with us for and this is the time you feel harder to make a new relationship.

20 Steve111647 days ago As children we often choose our friends by how close they live to us or schoolmates. Our biggest problems are small compared to adults. As adults we have trouble meeting other adults because of schedules and lack of common interests. Adults have to shuttle kids, work commitments, family activities etc.

21 Dipto1647 days ago @au52 I think the reason may be that when we're children we don't think about making friends with similarities or benefits and we also don't think about what our new friend is going to think about us (For an example : if you're very fat boy you wouldn't ask for a slim girl's friendship). As we become adult we think about our status , impression we're going to create and benefits we'll have from this new friend. It becomes even harder in making friends in opposite gender. But a child's brain isn't fond of in thinking such kind of things. That's why for a child it's easier.

26 MistahKurtz1611 days ago I wonder if it has anything to do with PUBERTY. Once we reach puberty and become aware of the other sex as 'The Other Sex' we are in competition with those in our own sex for the attention of 'The Other Sex.' It is really difficult to have friends with those you are in competition with. Thus, we have no real friends after we reach puberty.
