QOTD

How many friends from your childhood are you still friends with? Meaning talk to them pretty often.

Re: QOTD

  • I have 3 that I talk to regularly.  One lives here and he works with L, and the other two both live in Alabama - one in Tuscaloosa and one in Auburn.  There are still several childhood friends that if I see them, we can pick up like we haven't missed anything.

  • Talk to pretty often 0.

    Talk to every once in a while and send christmas cards to 1.

    It wasn't cool in my circle of friends to go away to college and I lost touch with a lot of girls from childhood b/c I went away.

  • Childhood friends:

    Talk to regularly: 0

    Friends with and Connect directly with on Facebook occasionally: 4?

    Exchange holiday cards: 3 or 4 (that aren't on FB, btw).

     

    College friends (Keep in mind, I graduated 20 years ago, so, for some of you, that's as long as you've known some childhood friends! :-) )

    Talk to regularly: 6

    FB connecting regularly: 10-12

    Exchange holiday cards: 16 or so (including FB friends from previous line).

     

     

  • I guess one, and sometimes I don't even know why I'm friends with her.

    Ok, that made me sound like a jerk.  She's a sweet girl, she's just very self absorbed.  She always seems to be in competition with me.  In fact, when I called to tell her that I was pregnant the first time, the first thing out of her mouth was, "Yay, now I need to get pregnant!"  Yeah, you don't say that to somebody who has struggled for a year and half and had to do IVF to get pregnant.

  • What constitutes childhood? I will say my oldest friend is one I've had since 2nd grade, so 23 years. I was just in her wedding in April.

  • From childhood: only a couple from time to time on Facebook. I even lived with my BFF in high school and we lost touch :( I talk more to friends from college and I like them more anyways.

  • 2. One just moved back to the state after moving for college and staying and getting married. Luckily her DH got a job very close by so I see her and her cute baby at least once a week.

    The other I've known for literally my entire life. Our dads worked together and our moms were friends before we were born. Her life is insane busy so we try to catch up every couple of weeks at least.

  • We aren't super close but one of my best friends from about age 6-11 I see at most special occassions (showers, weddings). The nice thing about having sisters is that I have people to reminisce about childhood with.
