time with friends

There used to be about 10 of us that always got together on weekends and holidays, Birthdays and Football Sundays. Now 3 moved away some moved to a different part of town so it's hard to get together anymore. We do spend Christmas and Thanksgiving together.

I don't normally spend alot fo time with my friends, but a lot of times, when given the opportunity to go shopping or out to eat or do homework, it's my friends hands down! My friends don't normally hang out with each other, they are all really different. There's always something about them that is similar to me, but completely opposite to each other. Plus, i don't like crowds and don't want one of my friends feeling left out if i'm interacting with the other more; because my friends are very opinionated, I could see them calshing, where as, I don't take things to personal and laugh things off - then move on to the next subject.

Because my friends are all parents now as I do. We don't have time to hang out together instead we see each other occasionally like baptismal or birthdays of their kids. We can only chat by phone most of the time.
