Yeah it's much harder to make friends as an adult because you don't get crammed in with people whether you like it or not. You also have more of a common enemy so it's easier to make friends.

I was not so great at doing stuff alone actually but i've learned it and love it now even though i still think i need to up my social game outside of the wife and kids as well.

Having a wife and kids would be perhaps even too much for me.

Wife was easy coming. We dated for 4 years while still living in our own houses. We bought a house together and then some 3 years later our first child was born.

I was always of the opinion i wanted 2 kids because i thought it would be good for them but after the first year of having a baby i had serious doubts if i was fit for this. It took me around 2 years of hard grinding with feeding, changing diapers and providing playful entertainment before i got used to it. It was because of this and a miscarriage that there is 4 year gap between my kids. Second one was just as hard for the first year at least but with a better future in mind it felt easier.

Now i enjoy them and love m to death. They sometimes take a trip for a few days without me and as much as i enjoy my alone time at home as well it also feels way to quiet. Like somehow i have gotten used to and actually sort of enjoy having noisy kids around me constantly.

Alone time in and around the house is sparse but i do go out and hike for a couple of hours a few times a week.
