+1 yI don’t have any childhood friends anymore except my sister. I had my first friend in the first grade and she wasn’t a good person honestly. She hung out with me till she flat out would lie and say she was in ISS. She was just hanging around another group near the front of the school where you weren’t supposed to be at.(Stopped being friends in 5th grade) Then I got another friend which I chose, she was a new student. Long story short she moved away and I was sitting at the table she brought me too. I was there for 2 months asking every week before one of them told me she moved away after spring break.(6th grade) I couldn’t leave, I tried mingling better with them. I kinda brainwashed myself into liking them for awhile, then it didn’t work and I tried to leave a few times, they’d just follow me and I couldn’t tell them why I tried distancing myself. So I stayed friends with them till 9th grade.
I dropped out of school when I was fourteen. And during that entire time I was in school they hadn’t tried asking for my number or social media. (I never asked for theirs or offered mine) And my first friend had the audacity to ask why we stopped being friends when she saw me at the grocery store a few years ago. Like she didn’t just ghost me. So my only friends are my own blood.11 Reply
Asker+1 yEy fam is all you need Zia, the smaller the circles, the more healthy, if your sister is there for you, be there for her and y'all only need each other 💯

+1 yI don't know a single person from childhood. They are far flung. I hear about a few, but have had no contact in decades.
I have had three friends from high school, but one recently died. Another I just saw two weeks ago and a third is coming to visit in February. Others are still in town, but, again, no contact with them. Maybe I'll renew a few contacts at a 50th class reunion this year. We'll see.
I have two friends from college I'm still in contact with and another two friends from a National Science Foundation summer science program I still know. I've made one good friend in grad school
Knowing someone your entire life is a real gift. I only know a few people so lucky. To have that long of a history is amazing. Only my parents knew me for that length of time, but they're dead.
I do have and older brother and cousins who've known me since childhood. But that's it. No one outside my family.

m +1 yfriends as in friendly, and in touch, yes... with a few of them
but, not as in close, best friends...
I like to say that we're still great friends... but a distance
they just happened to move out during our teens, so we grew up apart for too long, and, that happens25 Reply
Asker+1 yWell as adults there's seems to always be a form of distance, I think if y'all are still close then it's the closest y'all can get considering that friends as adults, there's responsibilities that will keep y'all busy
- +1 y
that's very true yes... that's the challenge as you get older...
so the friendship does change and evolves, true
Asker+1 yYep, because it evolved doesn't make it any less of a friendship, sounds like you do got best friends

Asker+1 yLol wtf, tell him sharing is caring
- +1 y
Nah, he’s fucking terrible at it, gets caught every time. If anything, I should be helping him figure that shit out😂😂😂 But he’s probably gone for 7 years or so, maybe someone inside can teach him. Probably just watched The Town with Ben Affleck and got gassed up, fucked around and got arrested lmfao
Asker+1 yNo cap they can keep him bruh, they doing that man a favor 😂
- +1 y
Big facts lmfaoooo
Asker+1 y😂😂😂
- +1 y
Actually just remembered…he’s hitting banks UNARMED too. I’m guessing that’s a legal strategy to lessen the offense if he’s caught, but still, if he keeps that shit up, some 75 year old guard who doesn’t fuck around is gonna light his ass up with no hesitation. When we were kids, this dude also broke his wrist TWICE dunking on a lowered basketball net, and tried to fly down a hill and across a busy street on his bike without even thinking of maybe having to stop, and he of course got fuckin’ bundled by a motorcycle. We should’ve had this kid in a padded room by 14, the system failed him, lmao. I gave him the Heimlich Maneuver and saved him from choking on a piece of cornbread once…. I’m wondering if that was the right move😂
Asker+1 yWell I don't understand how way of thinking, I guess caring about his time when getting caught is one thing but imagine walking into something and purposely lowering your chances of success because you are worried about failing so bad that you lower your chances purposely which higher his chances of failure 😂
Asker+1 yHis*
- +1 y
He’s an egg short of an omelette, I hope someone gets him some actual help. He was like my little bro when we were kids, it’s tough to see him end up on this path. He’s had a rough life. He lived like two doors down from me, we kicked it almost every day, played ball, played Nintendo. His old man was a con man though, and he got RIDDLED when I was like 18, found him in a chair in his house with I think 32 bullets in him, so I’m sure that fucked my dude up. But I still have to laugh at how dumb he is at crime, lmao

+1 yWe have a discord server with people from primary school (8 years long in Poland) and we keep in contact. Most of us are spread worldwide, so it's the only available way.
With two people we are still very close friends and meet frequently11 Reply
Asker+1 yEy at least y'all stay in contact, there's many people that don't so some contact at least is a form of effort for the friendship.
725 opinions shared on Other topic. We're not close anymore, but every so often we'll catch up. But it's not the same anymore. Some people do stay best friends until adulthood and I think that's great

Asker+1 yWell life gets in the way, just keeping contact is a blessing isn't it nubes?
+1 yHonestly, I have not made any friends until I was a freshman in high school. But those friends, I do not talk to. If we ran into each other on the street, we would probably start talking but we do not text on a daily basis.

Anonymous(36-45)+1 yNope. They all keep having kids, or losing them due to drugs and poor choices, or they all poshy married or they are impulsive and don’t communicate healthy, or always asking for five bucks, lots of things that I don’t put up with in my life anymore.
11 Reply
Asker+1 yCan't really blame you, some people all they seem to do is drag others down, it's only healthy to want to separate from such individuals if you see that the results of being around them lead to destruction of not just themselves but it starts effecting you, it's only logical and healthy to want to distance yourself and love em from a distance.
