    All you need to do is find someone else who also wants to make friends

    You just responded to a message detailing why it’s difficult to find people who want to make friends. This has the same energy as telling someone with depression to just not be sad.

      I see it as a list of reasons why you actually have to search for people to befriend. Like use an online system or run an ad in the newspaper or something, rather than just hope you already are going to encounter suitable people just going about your life.

      I don’t think not having any friend candidates handy is the same kind of problem as depression.
