KNX In Depth's Charles Feldman and Rob Archer discuss friends and romantic relationships.
As people get older, some might starting feeling a void in their life if they're single. The emphasis in their social life then becomes about meeting a romantic partner.

There's growing research now that finds friends can lead to a healthy life and maybe platonic love is better for people than romantic love.
