How to make friends as an adult?
Finding friends: difficulty level — adult
We collected stories from Purpur followers and guests of an adult camp about acquaintances that grew into friendships 👯
The camp is a place where adults come to reset, for adventures and for cool new acquaintances.

I sold her a business course, spent 2 months warming her up as a lead, and somehow it just happened) we've been friends for almost 4 years now
I was looking for an apartment, came to see one — it was a match from the first minutes, and it's been 2.5 years now)
My first camp session! One of my closest friends ever since!
The ex-love of my ex-boyfriend
We rang in 2024 with a group where almost no one knew each other — like in a movie where random guests all end up at the same party. In spring we got together again, this time the whole crew, and spent unforgettable days in Turkey. Now we're getting ready to ring in 2025 the traditional way — together, like a big family!
Work besties turn into just plain friends. Always unplanned
I was passing along an item from one acquaintance to another girl, we had coffee when we met, and this year we celebrated 5 years of friendship — she's one of the people closest to me
After a group job interview I bummed a cigarette off a girl who'd been there too. Then we walked for 4 hours and talked about everything. For half a year now we've been two peas in a pod
My best camp session happened in Asia: from the very first moment you could feel the warmth and sincerity. Sometimes the strength of that connection amazed me! At some point we went through every stage of a relationship, from admiration and delight to disappointment and acceptance. It was very valuable and lovely to realize that. We had different plans and tickets, but then we decided to go off together to another Asian country: there we were inseparable for several more months. That experience and that crowd gave me a real love for people and strong relationships; I still marvel at and feel nostalgic about every moment of that magical time 😌
