    first:this isn't a ranting thread.

    do you have a group of really close friends?
    i used to have a huge group of friends that i felt really close with and we hung out almost everyday and it was awsome.

    then i moved.

    I still have a good size group of friends that i'm really close with, some new, some from before, but i don't get to see them very often, at most 2 times a year. we talk on a regular basis but i miss hanging out and doing stuff with them, even if its just walkin to the mall etc...

    i've made friends where i am now, but i don't have that close bond with any of them and i keep forgetting that it takes a really long time for that to happen. especially when i'm not really big on the stuff that most people my age are, like bars, and clubs. i lived in my old town for 5 years before I found a group of people that i shared that bond with and i really don't wanna wait another 3 years to have that again.
    when you move how do you make that group allover for yourself?

    Show them your breasts...





    j/k of course..





    I have a group of friends and I've known some of them as long 12 years. I've moved here and there but I've always had my core friends in my hometown waiting when I came back. Its been nice cuz some of them have faded in and out and some are gone but the ones that are still here are like brothers to me and I hold their friendship very closely.



    I would really hate to have to start all over.

    I have four friends that I have known forever, they're like my family, we're really close and we share everything. Then I have lots of good friends and we are all very close as well. But they're all back in Finland and it sucks. :( I miss them and being with them so much.
    I've only lived in UK for about three months, so I haven't got CLOSE friends really. I have lots of friends who I hang out with a lot and we talk about pretty much everything, but it's still different. I'm not saying I don't appreciate my new friends, because I do. They're all really wonderful. But sometimes it gets really frustrating to get to know people... I mean REALLY get to know them... and also them getting to know you.
    I'm going to Finland next week for xmas and I'll get to see all my old friends, which is gonna be so great. I can't wait. :):):)

    Retro I went through that. Now I realize that is a thing of the past. I have only two really deathly close friends and I like it that way.

    I have two friends. My wife, and my pot dealer. Other than that, I don't talk to very many people.
