Friendship changes as we grow older, and for many men in their 40s, time and distance can quietly erode the bonds that once felt unbreakable. In this deeply personal monologue, I reflect on my lifelong tendency to be a loner, how that has shaped my friendships, and the realization that maybe—just maybe—I could have done things differently. From the struggles of making new friends as an adult to the bittersweet acceptance of lost connections, this is an honest look at male friendship, solitude, and growth.If you’ve ever looked back and wondered where those close friendships went, or why maintaining them gets harder as life moves forward, this one’s for you. Let’s talk about it.
