Social Life

Recently I’ve been hearing from so many tech bros and young devs who lack a social life, who are really lonely and are in need of some social circles, these guys make a ton of money but still they are deeply unhappy because of no social interactions or social life, Bangalore can actually be depressing if you move there to work, don’t have college friends around, really difficult to find groups where you would fit in, everyone needs an out, what are your thoughts?
