How many friends do you have?
Discussion
A few years ago I'd have said 3, maybe 4. Now the answer is none.
One I've known for over 40yrs, saw him through his 1st marriage & subsequent divorce, now married again & she doesn't like me (he & I have a very similar, dry humour & laugh without saying anything as we each know what the other is thinking), she hates that. Not seen or spoken to him for about 3yrs now, never fell out, just drifted apart. Bailed him out of many situations, all of his own drunken making but now realise it was very one sided.
Split with my OH about 5yrs ago, really telling who your real friends are when the chips are down, mine were mostly left wanting.

bury a body mates? probably 3 or 4
in the s
t middle of the night ring mates another 10 or so,
general out for a pint/other mates probably another 20,
for example a few years ago my wife was made redundant, a mate offered me a £10k loan no strings no questions until you can pay it back.
didnt need it thank god,

To dispose of a body, think I've only got one who'd do that. Maybe 2 but I think the second would do it more for wanting to do the deed than to help me.
Friends seemed to start dropping off the radar for me when I was about 23/24. People seem to change over the years and grow into different people than they were in their younger days, which is why I think people drift apart. Also, sometimes you just realise that a persons actually a bit of a tt!

I had a very close friend of over 20 years. I trusted her with everything. She was god mother to my first child.
The darkly devious bh stabbed me (and my family) in the back in a way someone I didn't trust could never have done.
Difficult to trust anyone now but apart from family I have 3 close friends.

I've got more people that would do that, than friends.I'd say I've about 6 "true friends", but they are spread all over the globe, so I see some so rarely now.
I've about a dozen "friends", but again, spread all over.
I've also about a dozen "mates" that I go drinking with and to events (motorsport, concerts, holidays).
