Some acquantainces, for sure. My daughter is closer to me than anyone and she has recently left for college. I must say though that my writer friends are probably closer to me and know me better, than anyone. I couldn't get through a day without talking to them.Regina Carlyslehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06316730032624449669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3813931369346468387.post-42417824880415522332009-09-08T09:03:54.312-04:002009-09-08T09:03:54.312-04:00The ones that stick are the ones worth keeping.

Those friends are from all segments of our lives there. Since moving to Texas though, I must say my best friends are my writer friends, my critique group and my chapter buddies. Maybe 2 more from elsewhere.<br />Is age a factor in acquiring friends?Cerise DeLandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11964518502483682417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3813931369346468387.post-28424903975470910382009-09-05T08:41:20.490-04:002009-09-05T08:41:20.490-04:00Same here, Amber:) Girls were too catty in school...Same here, Amber:) Girls were too catty in school, but thankfully most of the girl friends I have now have matured:)<br /><br />Except one...several years ago, my bff and I discovered that while the three of us had been friends for years, she and I had 'moved forward' with our lives (married, kids, etc..) while our mutual friend was still acting as if she was stuck in high school/college years. We've 'grown up'; she hasn't. But she's a loyal fan of mine, so I patiently deal with her, even if sometimes I end up shaking the phone receiver and want to bang it against the wall at some if the idiotic stuff she says!

TOO much drama. And I seem to have a sign - GOT DRAMA, become my friend. LOL<br />I joke with husband that I should have been a therapist. Just charging my one friend, I'd be a miilionaire.

I do have two cousins I'm close with and one of my sisters with whom I'm very close. Plus my husband is my best friend, my dog my second best friend, and my kids are right up there too. It's kind of weird. I really don't like drama and the women I've met since I moved here (where we live) are all about drama. Too bad, huh...Julia Barretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02039544457172725396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3813931369346468387.post-49472691457789086052009-09-04T18:39:24.022-04:002009-09-04T18:39:24.022-04:00I know what you mean.

I still have a couple long term friends, but I've also had many fade away.<br /><br />My younger daughter's dealing with that now. she and her best friend are stronger than ever. However, they're drifting apart from the rest of their group and they're sad. I don't think it's anything they've done wrong.
