Not met with anyone from EP in real.
I know where some of them are, but unfortunately (and I said this before EP closed), EP was the glue that held us together.
I don't really make close friends anymore. My closest EP friends were made within my first year of joining...the ones I confided in and talked with all the time. Once EP went to the dogs, my friends started leaving over time. Many good people left, and I realized as a new Buddhist not to become attached to any new people because the pain of separation is too much to keep bearing, so I stopped chatting, and never made anymore deep connections.
People come and go, so I no longer become emotionally attached to anyone, though the bonds of friendship remain in my being with those friends back in 2011-12.
