I have a couple of amazing friends I've known for almost 20 years. One lives in LA and the other in TN, but we keep in touch. I have a couple friends I've known for 5 years or less and that about does it for me. I have little desire to meet new people, but occasionally put myself in new situations.

Jenn - Well I feel honored to get to hang out with you every now and then!!! Can't wait for the holidays to be over so we can meet up again!!!
Yari - move to Florida. I'll be your friend.
I have lots of friends from college and people that I know at work, but I don't really have any close friends. People don't get my digital scrapbooking thing or their kids are so much younger than mine (so then it makes it hard to hang out). My last close friendship ended when I got this job and I travel different places every day. We couldn't count on going to lunch once a week anymore and then she stopped making the effort - so I let it go (plus she told me waaaayyyy too much about her relationship with her husband and I began to hate him which made it hard to do couple stuff.)
Why is making friends so hard as an adult????
