My parents were immigrants and really did not let me have that many friends growing up. I really was allowed to have one friend to do things with, and if anything went wrong in school, then she got blamed for my academic failures. I think that's why to this day I really don't have many "in person" friends besides my husband. We get along just fine, so that is a good thing I guess. And I am not upset about that.
I chat with my sister everyday. She is 14 years my junior, and I was gone by the time she came an age where the age difference between us wouldn't have been an issue.
I have quite a few online friends that I chat with, so I am much more social online than in person.
