Where do you know most of your friends from?

In the real world, I have two friends - one from early 1990s (we were together studying computers) and another my wife - I met her when I was interviewing for a position and we became colleagues (in 2004-5). Most of my acquaintances of today are from work or even those whom I studied with at school (these used to be friends during school, but today, it is just that I happen to know them). On the online world, 99% of my friends come from MyLot. The only 1% are from a few other forums that I used to visit/manage when MyLot was not paying.

I met one foirned from here named @wiLLMAH . i dont know whether she is in here or not. but we are good friends in facebook!

My closest friend is from my childhood. Even though we are far apart we stay connect by phone, text, facebook, and see each other once a year. My closest friends in Florida were former neighbors and present neighbors. I also have friends from both of my children's schools and therapies. I also cherish the friends I made on here @DaddyEvil, and @fishtiger58.

I have few friends from work. Most of friends that we get together are people I know through my husband. He's the friendly sort and becomes friends to many that I wouldn't even guess sometimes, like the stall owners at the hawker-style food court he frequents...

My husband and I, have common friends. We knew most of them during the time we lived in France. Many are from the computer world, programmers, software developers. We are still friends with all those who have common interests.

Uhm... I really don't have any ... uhm ... how to say this.... There aren't any people I go hang out with left to me now, pony, no close friends... I have many online friends! You already know a lot of them. I have Gloria, the friend from WebAnswers, I have Jabo from Bubbs, I have Nameless from WA and Bubbs I have some here, like my King, fishtiger and sishy, Yuki, much2say, vanny and PA, JJ and... hmmm ... I feel like I am forgetting someone important to me, but can't come up with a name.. Let me think about it, okay? Uhm... I would include you in my list, too, pony. I won't pretend to leave mommaj out anymore, either. I am positive I have not mentioned many others I love in this list, but there are so many from here on myLot and from WA and Bubbs, too. Can you count on friends you only know online? In some ways you can... Although, I think I could count on some of my online friends if I really needed them, I think some of them would bust a gut trying to do whatever I needed online and in the real world. Yeah, I know, this is really lame, isn't it? LOL. I know where all the people I used to call friends are... I'd rather not say any more, okay? Things happen... Life happens, mostly.

A lot of my f riends came from fellow workers in the hosp ital where i wo rked and then later I worked in the Tustin iibrary and all the crew I worked with were friends so some still are.

Most of my friends are from our place of worship and from past businesses.

I met my best friend in Italy. We met during a vacation in Italy and stayed in touch when we returned to Denmark. Most of my other friends are old classmates, old neighbours and online friends who became offline friends when we met. My husband and I moved 6 months ago and we have met some of our new neighbours, but we don't know many people from this area.

Most of my friendships are from the Church I go to. Others are from when I provided childcare for them.

Our real friends are back in New Jersey - we just have a few close acquaintances in TN

A few are from childhood and some from school.

I have so many friends I met when I was 9 years old and my family moved to another town. I went to 4th grade with them and we are still friends for almost 55 years. Some of them were Girl Scouts with me. Luckily I have not lost many to illness, etc. We all went to school together and after graduation we went our separate ways but still keep in touch and see each other at weddings or class reunions. Another group of friends I met when I started working many years ago and I also keep in touch with some of them. I was a hairdresser on cruise ships when I was 20 and still keep in touch with one of my room mates and she is the godmother for my daughter and my daughter has her middle name. After I went back to work when the kids started school I have lots of friends from there and finally the last 20 years of my life I worked in retail and have lots of friends from there as I became a manager and was transferred to so many different stores to help train people and design the garden departments. I have a lot of friends from there too. I guess you notice I have a pattern, I like to keep the friends I make and everyone of them has the same outgoing personality as I do and want to have fun. We may not see each other all the time but we can pick up the conversation that we left off of the last time we met.

They used to be from work, but more recently they are neighbors or people I have met through activities.

I have friends at work and friends that my wife knows.

Hi, I know most of my friends from childhood, work, school, church and community service.

Most of my friends are from high school the rest are childhood friends that grew together on the streets of Brooklyn New York

Neighbours, through my child's activities, through work, through church, neighbours. I seem to know a lot of people.

This is an interesting one. Most I guess have come from sharing activities or events of one sort or another. One I met through bookclub, Vince has met some through golf or business associates turned friends.

Most people who became my close friends are a couple from my school days and then people I worked with.
