![]() ![]() Reality isn’t like Friends or New Girl- you probably don’t live across the hall from or in one giant apartment with your adult friends.Īdult friendships are a lot harder to maintain than sitcoms would suggest, due to competing commitments. But in-person hangouts are far less frequent than as kids. Keeping in touch is easier now, of course: smartphones and social apps. ![]() Even before COVID, it wasn’t unusual to not see good friends for months and months. How can you even call yourselves friends, if you’re not seeing each other every day? Of course, as an adult, that speech now makes a lot of sense to me. She was my cousin’s best friend, and I remember her saying something along the lines of “we can go months without seeing each other, and then pick right back up where we left off.” To little me, the idea of not seeing your friends for months was preposterous. I have a distinct childhood memory of being at some older cousin’s wedding, listening to the Maid of Honour give a speech. ![]()
