"Friendship Recession" is a term used to describe a decline in the number of close friends that adults have in the United States and Canada.

Does this ring true for you? Did a Friendship Recession or friendship decline happening in your life? And when did it start? Is life better with less friends, or does it become lonelier overtime?
