My best friend died when I 16, and 11 years later, I still haven’t had a good friend. Just acquaintances. I do have a wife and kid, but I’m missing that man best friend aspect of my life. It’s been so long I wouldn’t even know where to begin. My other issue issues I have is the fact that every time I meet someone, I’m like “nah we’re too different, he can’t be my best friend, he’s kinda weird” etc etc. I know I can’t replace the friend I had, but i want to start trying to make friends again. I just don’t know where to begin. submitted by /u/Consistent-Rule6517
