Maybe this sounds stupid, but I was just curious how many people have close friends they hang out with on a regular basis. I have friends I talk to at work, but I don't get together with them outside of work. I have two best friends that I would do anything for. One lives over an hour away and we try to get together a few times a year (she has a 10 yr old son so she is always going to baseball games, football games, etc); the other lives in Florida. I fell out of touch with a lot of my old friends when I moved away for 4 yrs, and now they're all married with families of their own. I'm married, but no kids. I think that's why I'm on here so much. Because I don't have anything else to do with my free time (well, house work, but what fun is that!
)
