Of course no research into why social media addicts don’t have strong personal relationships was even considered because that might actually answer a question.
It’s actually quite hard to form strong personal relationships in adulthood. I struggle with this myself. Anytime I’ve started to form closer bonds with people you find out they are usually woke believers. Maybe it’s just my area though. But also I started to form some bonds with hardcore Christians at work - only to be backstabbed and betrayed(credit stolen and given no acknowledgement) in a work scenario by the same people. So that kind of kills any motivation to continue those relationships.
What’s your experience been like or how have you formed strong personal relationships in adulthood?
Basically for us that are stuck in the bad places by circumstantial situation, we can't do anything but do the best and cope with it. You know, I have never thought about it but this is why I was so desperate to get out of Australia. I couldn't make any headway being stuck in this country. Made me realise why I'm pretty critical of anglo-western culture, I base it on my experience with Australia. And can you blame me when you see Australia popping up in the headline for being braindead morons constantly proving my point?
You really can't make friends after age 40 or so. You can make buddies -- maybe, but friendship is virtually impossible.
Remember, all of your friends from your youth shared intense bonding experiences with you. But by 40 you've already experienced most of what life has to offer. Anything new is just window-dressing.
Much as we rightfully mock 'cat lady' chicks, there's going to be a massive male loneliness crisis in the coming years. It doesn't help that manly stuff like the gym is so pozzed/feminized.

Mutual kompromat. And in one case just sheer force of will.
