How can men be better at keeping friends and community as they age?
The women I know that have retired or are approaching retirement are very good at keeping a wide circle of friends and are generally known and keep busy in the communities they live.
Generally, the men in the same age brackets are the opposite. Maybe a handful of close friends but certainly not extensive. Not widely known in the community.
What can those men change and what can younger men do now to have better social connections and communities as they grow older?
Coming at this from the perspective that having strong social circles and friendships has a direct correlation with improved quality of life and health as we age.
