Do you still have friends from your younger days?

I graduated high school 5 years ago and I've kept 5 good friends since then that I still hang out with.

Obviously I've made new friends at college, work and social events but my childhood friends have gone their own way.

I knew this one guy. We've been friends since we were 6. We were like brothers by the time we were 13. By the time we were 15 he started to hang out with his cousins and I basically only got to see him in school. After high school he spent one semester at the college I went to before he dropped out. I haven't heard anything from him since then. That was 4 and a half years ago.

Man I hate how things changed between me and him.

I've feathered away after high school, but I still keep in touch with a few people that date back to early grade school.

the longest ive had a friend is maybe 3-4 years tops. all the others just commme and go. thats normal!

I only keep in touch with maybe 3 of the group of ten that used to chill together.One of my buddies I started smokeing weed in high school with...now,I am back....smoking with him again,LOL.

the closest one i had, got me arrested, then wouldnt come bail my ass out of jail when i called.... and i still talk to him every now and then, and when hes back in town i still hang out with him.... other than that, its only been a year since i got out of school, and i talk to hardly anyone, just my girlfriend and a couple of her friends out of the school now. and noone out of my class unless if i see them around

Yeah, i've got a couple mates from REALLY young, 5 years old upwards, and a couple from my teens. I supose i've got about 15- 20 friends that i've grown up with.

I occasionally bump into a few friends from school but now all my current friends have been met since leaving school, my oldest friend I have had for about 20 years or so.

I haven't seen anyone since my high school reunion, four years ago.

I graduated high school 30 years ago and still have two close friends from those days. One I've actually known since I was about 18 months old and our parents used to walk together while taking us out in our strollers. We were childhood playmates who grew into adult playmates. The other I've known since I was 14, which is 32 years. I have a few other acquaintances who were school colleagues that I keep up with through my parents, who socialize with their parents. Those are mostly "hearsay" acquaintances instead of friends.

From high school, no, I hated HS. :p I got kicked out after the 2nd semester after they realized suspensions were giving me more pleasure than harm. :D

But, I did graduate 2 years ago finally, and no, I don't keep in touch with any of my classmates. It's too bad really because we had a lot of fun. It was HS work, but at age 23 at a college, with a bar, it seemed more like a vacation than work.

My junior high buddies though I keep in touch with one. I still saw other friends from back then, but I never really called them, but this 1 guy I have known since I was about 11. He's a good guy, but he has some problems and our differences kind of clash now, so we talk, not really hang out.

So to answer the question, I guess not really. Too bad really, but when you change your life for the better, friends are one of the first things to go.
