friends forever?

[stagnalis]

just been having a chat with my mates about whether we'll all still be in touch later on in life - different careers,locations..etc..
how many of yous have stayed intouch with your childhood mates?

Well I am 22, so it wasn't so long ago for me I suppose, but a lot of my good schoolfriends that I grew up with are no longer in touch, and as I am about to leave Uni, I wonder if I will ever hear from most of my class again!

I do have some very special friends though, and I certainly intend to do my best to keep them! x

I am only in touch with 1 childhood friend.

They have all scattered and are up and down the country and even abroad!

[tickledtrout]

None now, Nobody believed our form tutor when she told us we would lose touch when we left school but not seen any of them for years

[Drisgirl]

Not in touch as such but if we meet up we have the craic.

The friends you make after school tend to be the ones who are the constants in your life.

I always remeber telling my two if they were upset cos of school and 'pals' and such like -dont worry about them because they wont be your special mainstay pals when you are older -and yip guess what i was right.

They both have terrific friends with R having been at Uni and J being at College and working in Perth -they have spread their wings and its good.

Sorry a bit of a tangent there -my closest pals are peeps I met online -but more offline now if you know what i mean -they are terrific and we have had the best laughs together.

Lucky or what !!!
