RE: One Last Lunch

in #story12 days ago

Any friendship that lasts more than 7 years can make it through a geographical divide that happens. I have a friend I met in grade 6 that moved across the country and, though it has been different, we have maintained that connection and still see each other on special occasions.

Friends like that are such a big piece of us, no matter if they are next door or across the globe. One of the blessings you can count.

Sort:  

That's great that you two have been able to maintain that connection! I've had old friends who just completely fell off radar. I think the key thing is both parties have to be willing to make an effort. I don't know about you but I appreciate friendships so much more now than I did twenty years ago.

Oh definitely. I also choose new ones a little more carefully because I am too old to spend my time with twits! ;)

It gets more difficult as we get older to make friends for a variety of reasons. Being more "choosy" is definitely one of those. We learn how to spot all those pesky red flags. : )
