definitely and that shrinking started long before 35.
This^^^ Started around 19 when my father passed. Changed my view of and tolerance of people.
definitely and that shrinking started long before 35.
I got niggas who can't/won't work because of outstanding child support. They dont have work history so they can't get good paying gigs and even if they do get them a wack job they only can work a month before their check get ate up and they are working for pennies that wouldn't be a living wage in Somalia. Sounds like a sad situation but the truth is they put themselves in that situation by thinking shit was sweet with multiple baby mommas..
My situation was my homies were always getting together after work but it would be the same ole shit: drink, smoke, crack jokes, same ole stories I heard 8 years previously. I got bored. I found myself thinking I could be other places doing things that improve my lot in life or just enjoy. One of them always needed to have women around and liked to show off a lot. These women never did anything spectacular, just hung around. I said fuck all this. Now I concentrate on music, art, finances, self improvement. If anyone wants my time I need to hear what it's about before I agree. No time for sitting around going nowhere.
Shit i did this when i was in my late teens early 20s lol

As one gets older, the less bullshit you want to deal with.
If having peace of mind means having to let some people go, so be it.
Most times, you grow, have other interests, while some just choose to stay on the same bullshit, and stagnant.
Life goes on.
And OP - Your initial post sounds just like me these days. I'd rather chill at the crib, cook, invite some selected folks over.
I'm 38. Going out is for the birds
Last time I went out with some friends, I felt like a fish out of water, and told my boy, we are too old for this. If anything we need to be plotting on how to own a club/joint so that these young cats can come pay us coming to our establishment.

Still this... same guys, just a few years older...My circle has always been small.
I've had the same 6 friends since middle school. Going on 35 and those same friends are still there and we still hangout and are as silly now as we were then.
Lost two of the crew WAY too early, but that just made those still alive tighter and value our friendship even more.
And in all those years we've NEVER had a fight or argument......those are friends I'll grow old with
I'm just here so I don't get fined
