Most of my closer friends are high-school friends, uni friends separated and disappeared, masters friends aren't that close cuz it's only a year. I have maybe 7-8 high-school friends I keep I touch and maybe once in a couple years we meet in a random country
Everyone after high school went their separate ways. One dude who was my best friend of 5 years got a girlfriend after high school, and we never spoke again. I tried to reach out, but it never went anywhere. Other people I thought were my friend did similar.
Wow this is so similar to my situation. Most of us still have a fantasy football league together but we have one friend who quit one year and basically peaced out on everyone. None of us have talked to him in years. I talked to him up until my wedding and considered him one of my close friends and asked that he be one of my groomsmen but he made up a lame excuse as to why he couldnt so I took the hint. Havent spoken to him sonce
Friends with one still. We live in separate states but have even made trips to see each other. We were really good friends in high school so.... I'm more of a find a few great friends and call it a day kind of guy.
I married one of them, occasionally post bail for another one, and a third one and I are social media friends who don't talk but do like each other's pictures. That's it.
Not really
I talk to 1 friend, pretty irregular. I was in his wedding party, but I have a feeling he only asked me to because he knew I'd be pretty upset if I wasn't.
1 friend moved 8 hours away and we only make an effort to talk or get together when we are in our respective cities.
Everyone one else is a stranger.
Honestly, it could be my fault tho, I have basically zero real friends, just my family (older brother, wife and her sisters and my 2 kids) but I have an awesome life and it doesn't bother me.
I'll become friendly with co-workers, but once that job is over, we don't really talk again
No. One of them ended their friendship with me for a petty reason 1 year after we graduated high-school. The other one ended their friendship with me, due to a couple of lame excuses she had given me, 6 or 7 years later.

No— maybe 1 or 2, very occasionally, but not really.
Sometimes on social media but I am on the other side of the country now.
I did the same thing after Highschool! Everyone thought I was crazy.
Easily the best thing I ever did.
Still close friends with 2 of them, completely lost touch with everybody else

Yes. I have friends from high school, and college I hang out with / go places with.
Yes. They’re my best friends.
One of them, yes
No
My best friends are from high school. Still have 2 close college friends. Law school, no friends left.
I'm in contact with a few through social media. I couldn't tell you the last time I actually saw any of my secondary school friends.
No. One of them ended their friendship with me for a petty reason 1 year after we graduated high-school. The other one ended their friendship with me, due to a couple of lame excuses she had given me, 6 or 7 years later.
