How do you decide when you need to make new friends or rekindle the friendships you have? Read further?

Asked by shortysith (688points) September 15th, 2009

I am in my mid-twenties and have made some pretty big changes in my life this past year (broke up with my my ex of six years, dating a new man, moved back in with my rents, just finishing school again…). I had a close group of friends in college that helped me through a lot. However, I find that I am not nearly as close to them as I used to be, my desire to speak with and keep in touch with these people has lessened a lot, and it bothers me. I have made a great group of friends through school again, but I am distant from my college friends who meant the world to me. I guess I am just wondering if I should be making more of an effort to save those relationships from being distant, or if it is best to accept that things change and friends come and go throughout life. What are your experiences with this? Do your opinions of friendship change when you get older??
