Why Your Friendships Don’t Excite You Anymore
Have you ever gone to meet up with friends feeling like it is more of a chore than a pleasure?
Have you ever wondered why you never do anything exciting with your friends?
Or have you ever been in a conversation with friends only to realize that most your friends are boring?
Many people think this way about the friendships that do not do much for them anymore.
They are not exciting, do not hold any value and they have them mainly to have them but not because they add more to life.
How does this happen?
Honestly, most of the time it is not the fault of your friends, but yours.
Friendships, just like any relationship, take time and effort to uphold.
You have to make the interactions interesting or they will fall behind.
Just like a hobby, a romantic relationship, a job, career, or any activity at all, if you just go into it hoping that it will stay exciting you will likely be disappointed.
Time, without effort to improve, usually results in decreased results and value.
The conversations with your friends are boring because you do not care to figure out what you could ask that drives their passion or interest.
