You are missing the point entirely, at no point on his argument he claims that he can't make friends. He did provide a few examples of why people have trouble getting people to play certain content. I'd add times and life commitments to the list of obstacles that some of us face while grouping to play. I for one just get interrupted by my kids or my work all the time and the little time I can dedicate to playing often is when most of my friends have already done the activities or are sleeping/working because they live all over the world its certainly not our fault that Bungie has decided that you can only do some of the activities once a week if you expect any rewards. its is hard/uncomfortable to keep asking for people to repeat the already too familiar activities knowing full well they are not getting anything till the next week. Its not impossible though, just nothing like hitting play and letting the game find me willing players at that particular moment through optional matchmaking.
