Drive Moment - Friendship Recession: When Did Your Circle of Close Friends Start Getting Smaller?

Loading player...
Have you ever looked at your life and wondered why your friendship circle is getting smaller and smaller? The natural progression of age may not be the only reason. "Friendship Recession" is a term used to describe a decline in the number of close friends that adults have in the United States and Canada. Due to factors like remote work, fewer "third spaces", and less tolerance for conflict and misunderstandings, research has shown that people in these regions have less close friendships than ever before. Does this ring true for you? Did a Friendship Recession or friendship decline happening in your life? And when did it start? Is life better with less friends, or does it become lonelier overtime?
