I made a post on Instagram asking women who have a lot of friends (and who generally make friends pretty easily) to share how they make it happen.

https://greeninfrastructure.net came to mind when you mentioned the women who make friends easily tend to put themselves in recurring situations, since that overlaps with how shared green spaces quietly create the same kind of repeated, low-pressure contact. The detail about friendships forming through consistency rather than big gestures stuck with me, because I've noticed the same thing in my own neighborhood, where the people I see weekly at the park are the ones I actually know. It makes me think we underestimate how much our surroundings do the social work for us.
I love the idea of gathering real experiences from so many women to understand what makes friendships grow naturally. It’s a good reminder that building meaningful connections often comes down to small, consistent efforts, and it reminded me of a related discussion I recently came across on England & Derbyshire Solicitors
