On Facebook mainly. One of my old friends is now in upstate New York (I'm near Liverpool) and another is on the Gold Coast in Australia. I see them when they make rare visits to the UK.

No didnt like most the mfers when i was in school to begin with

Yes. One of my old college softball teammates lives in town and I didnt know. She coaches a girls travel team. I ran into her one day while walking around the ballpark by my home, where there was a fastpitch tournament. I was just missing it a little and stopped by to watch and she recognized me.
Lilymoon · F

Yes, all my buddies from high school in fact. We're all spread out around the country, but we keep in touch through Facebook and messanger.
texasborn89 · 31-35, M
yeah but my best friend pretty much stopped talking to me and my other friends out of nowhere ever since he started dating a girl he pretty much abandoned me and my friends and we can't understand why he just stopped talking to us out of nowhere. we used to be important to him he would always want to call us and catch up now he doesn't want to seem to care about it anymore

@texasborn89
Sounds like there's another side to the story you may not be hearing about.
texasborn89 · 31-35, M
@PatKirby true but the thing is that he's doing it too everyone pretty much and we don't know what's going on with him its just weird
PatKirby · M
@texasborn89
Something tells me your friend will appear on the horizon when least expected, and for good.
PatKirby · M
Yep, one since kindergarten/grade school who lives two blocks away. Another since high school lives across town.
SW-User

My best friend since we were 13 years old I met in school...43 years ago. My wife I also started going to school with at 13 but I never met her in school because...she is a girl and back then they terrified me (still do most of the time)
Jeephikelove · 46-50, F
Technically, yes. I know that if either of us reached out, we’d both find ways to stay in touch. It’s a busy time for most of my school friends. There weren’t many, but the ones that stuck around are priceless.
RedBaron · M
I am still friends with a guy who lived on my dorm corridor in our freshman year of college. We met on the first day, August 27, 1978, and saw each other in June at our class of 1982 40th reunion.
MartinTheFirst · 26-30, M
Me and one guy keep in touch. We weren't super close at the end of highschool, in fact we had a prolonged fight, but he messaged me sometimes and even though I pushed him away he stuck around. That shows a certain kind of loyalty that I can get behind, so once a year we try to meet up for dinner and a beer.
PatKirby · M
@MartinTheFirst

That's good you were able to see the good over the bad and preserved the friendship. Things take time.
ChipmunkErnie · 70-79, M
Not really friends, but a few people I'm in touch with via FaceBook. Maybe I should go to my 55th High School Reunion next year? Haven't made it to any in the past.
