Money has long been one of the biggest sources of conflict in relationships, but today’s economic landscape has made financial stress an even greater burden.
The cost of living means i typically work 10 hours a day, 6 days a week to make ends meet. As someone who moved to a new city in the past few years, this lifestyle has absolutely crippled me socially. There are other factors that have made it difficult to meet people, such as dependance on social media for socializing, but the hours i work is definitely a major factor. My job tends to have me working with/for people 2-3 decades older than me so there hasn’t been a ton of opportunity to meet friends through work.
