jumpjunkie2004 0 #1 August 8, 2006 The best friend thread made me think about the people I email, PM, IM, call, and see each week. How many people do you stay in touch with on a weekly basis?Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

popsjumper 2 #3 August 8, 2006 Anyone that will touch ME... On the other hand...how many people post here...since I'm such a post whore, does that count as "staying in touch?"My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

jumpjunkie2004 0 #4 August 8, 2006 I guess that posting here is a way in staying in contact with a number of people. However, I meant something more on a personal level. You can reach out and touch me! Of course, you'd have to have some super long arms!Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PLFXpert 0 #6 August 8, 2006 I'm not one to stay in touch with everyone. I definitely return calls/e-mails as received, but there are only two girlfriends I actually call and e-mail to on a regular basis. I think some people naturally feel obligated to keep in touch--like they're a cold person if they don't. I disagree. I think it's natural as people, things & environments change that most people are meant to be in your life when they're there and not when they're not. I have friends I run into or hear from out of nowhere b/c they've come to my area for one reason or another. We talk, have a blast, and then go another few years w/out talking again. It's just the way it's meant to be. No worries. No regrets. Then Billy and I have mutual friends we only call to see where we'll meet up on a weekend. We don't call during the week. We don't e-mail or go to one another's functions (w/ the exception of a wedding). They're good friends and I imagine we'd do almost anything for them if they needed it. But they're not needy people. Neither are we. And we just have fun going out with them for drinks or fishing sometimes. I speak to my family once/month usually. They do their own thing and are always busy, just as much as me. But, we love each other and would be there for one another in a heartbeat. We're just not that family that gets together for Uncle Joe's 46th B-day or calls you b/c you have a big car and they need help moving. We don't get together b/c we need favors. When we get together we're all sitting outside drinking, talking, eating & laughing and nothing else. I'm biased, obviously, but I like things that way.Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

d_squared431 0 #7 August 8, 2006 I maybe only keep in touch with ten or so. It seems to get harder each year that passes. I am always on line IM'ing family members though. My friends that live here I guess once or twice a week I talk to them.TPM Sister#130ONTIG#1 I love vodka.I love vodka cause it rhymes with Tuaca~LisaH You having a clean thought is like billyvance having a clean post.iluvtofly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
