Why the average American hasn’t made a new friend in 5 years
Forty-five percent of adults say they find it difficult to make new friends, according to new research.
A new study into the social dynamics of 2,000 Americans revealed that the average American hasn’t made a new friend in five years.
In fact, it seems for many that popularity hits its peak at age 23, and for 36 percent, it peaks even before age 21.
The study, conducted by OnePoll in conjunction with Evite, uncovered that one of the reasons 42 percent of adults struggle to make friends is due to introversion or shyness (((pussifacation and cuckdom))).
And the challenge is not just in breaking out of their shell but also breaking into new social situations and circles.
The majority of respondents cite friendship-making barriers that include aversion to the bar scene where most people choose to socialize, or the feeling that everyone’s friendship groups have already formed.
And how many friends do adults actually have? Turns out, 16. The average American has three friends for life, five people they really like and would hang out with one-on-one, and eight people they like but don’t spend time with one-on-one or seek out.
Most people have remained close with friends they met when they were younger. Nearly half of those surveyed have stayed friends with peers from high school, and a further 31 percent with peers from college.
Kicking it even more old-school, three in 10 Americans say they have made lasting connections with people they met in their childhood neighborhood.
However, 82 percent of those studied feel like lasting friendships are hard to find. The number one cause of lost friendships is moving away, with 63 percent revealing this to be a reason they’ve fallen out of touch with a former friend.

for the average goyim it's easy to explain. Kike economy practices are forcing people to become wandering gipsies serving the shekel wherever it falls - even in the digital age of Kikebook and Smartphones, this doesn't make people stay friends or connect more. Lasting friendships are made through experiencing hardships together, whereas visiting a club with random faggots is meaningless.
For us, though, it's even harder to make friends, because if society is growing into a circus full of lunatics, there aren't many like minded people around. Nowadays, if you are right wing and want to have friends, you'll have to make active efforts as in converting them and make them 'befriendable'.

Realistically that doesn't even happen. What actually happens is you mask your beliefs to a significant degree, and I'm not sure "right wing" even means anything if neocons have appropriated it to mean something mild and meager. Smoking weed, abortion, birth control and circumcision are stupid points to debate given that anyone who is left-wing, or just doesn't care about politics, has the more realistic point of view. Gun control, gay marriage, immigration (legal and illegal are now separated thanks to Trump, which is bad for us), are all topics that can lose you genuine friends who happen to think less critically than you. If you live in a rural area then you won't be changing much ever, you'll live out a simple life and die that way, however if you intend on changing things for the better than an urban life is both dangerous (which is preferable) and far more prone to degeneracy. One must live among goblins.

You have to step up your persuasion skills. No jewish word tricks needed. Just know which person can be talked to in what way. Even today, there are still people who just never had someone to talk to and are the way they are because of their social surroundings. I've encountered a lot of people being seemingly master goyim but after a few talks and occasions people will listen, especially if you know the person you're talking to. Not every argument can be applied to every goyim.
