I donāt have any childhood friends anymore except my sister. I had my first friend in the first grade and she wasnāt 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 werenāt 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 couldnāt leave, I tried mingling better with them. I kinda brainwashed myself into liking them for awhile, then it didnāt work and I tried to leave a few times, theyād just follow me and I couldnāt 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 hadnāt 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 didnāt just ghost me. So my only friends are my own blood.

I 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.

friends 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 happens
Lost track of almost all of them. One of them canāt stop, wonāt stop robbing banks, lmfao. Heās off doing a stretch right now, I think.

A few of them. Still have my childhood best friend by my side, that's the important one.
I have about 3-5 good friendsā¦ true, donāt see them like when weād were little/single. Me guilty of that.
I have one in HK. One an hour away.
the other 3 also an hour awayā¦I try to call them oftenā¦I have made more friends because i am socialā¦ but no time to keep up.
We 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 frequentlyWe'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
Honestly, 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.
Some! We all went different paths, but still keep in touch. Only like 3 from childhood. Just 2 from high school.
nope, stopped talking to all of them a long time ago
Yeah we used do be friends with benefits at some point and stopped when they got in a relationship, but after their breakups we met and remembered our old times. So we're in touch these days
I have one amazing friend from childhood and family friends
I Had Them On FB for Awhile and Then Got Rid of Them when I Had Met my Muslim Hubby From Egypt. We Met on FB and I Then Traveled Out There and We Had Gotten Married. lolxxoo
Nope. They all keep having kids, or losing them due to drugs and poor choices, or they all poshy married or they are impulsive and donāt communicate healthy, or always asking for five bucks, lots of things that I donāt put up with in my life anymore.
I am still friend with a few people from my childhood.
Most of my childhood friends moved away. I have one that moved to Texas but she visits me every year.
Well me and a lot of my elementary school friends kinda drifted apart when middle school started but I am still friends with two people I met in middle school
It worked for a while.
But one after the other have become 'normal'.
One is left. But he also begins to do the 'old people things' now.
Many. I have had the same best friend since I was four.
