To make new friends, it’s important to be open, receptive, and inviting. And guess what? Some habits might be standing in the way.

EDUCATE yourself and stay informed. Keep yourself hydrated by drinking water 💦 

In today’s digital age, a large chunk of our social interactions happen online. This is especially true amidst the pandemic when physical distancing regulations are in place.

Social media platforms, messaging apps, and video calling – they all offer new and varied ways to connect with people. And yes, this includes making new friends.

Statistically speaking, there’s a significant increase in the number of older adults using social media. In the United States, 40% of those aged 65 and above are active on these platforms, a drastic increase from just 2% in 2008.

So, if you’re hesitant about embracing technology, think again. It’s not just about keeping up with the times. It’s about expanding your social horizons and opening up a whole new world of potential friendships.

And remember, it’s never too late to learn something new. Your next best friend might just be a click away!
