More Gen Z are attending social dinner parties to combat loneliness. Some young adults are finding post-college life challenging, especially in a remote work setup. So, they’re joining social dining events organized by groups like The Girls NYC, Skip the Small Talk, Bestie Brunch, the Aperitivo Society, and the Dinner Party Project. These gatherings aim to fight loneliness among Gen Z by connecting people over themed meals. While some attendees have formed meaningful friendships, some can still find it difficult to establish a deep connection. Despite mixed results, participants remain optimistic, viewing these events as opportunities for potential friendships and connection in an increasingly isolated world. (Bonappetit)
