Who was you first friend you can remember?

Mine was a little girl in kindergarten that was the only girl to play with me. Her name was Cindy. Now I am 36 and I still value the memory of her. What about you, who was your first friend?

My first friend was Mary, a little girl who lived a few houses down from us. We enjoyed riding our tricycles together and playing in our neighborhood. Unfortunately she drowned in her backyard swimming pool when we were two years old. I still have the teddy bear her mother gave to me as a keepsake.

I am so sorry to hear that, you've brought tears to my eyes. It's wonderful you have kept her Teddy Bear all these year in remembrance. You are a good friend.

The first friend I can remember is Kim. We met when I was about 5. I remember that day like it was yesterday (almost 40 years later). We just moved into a new house and these two girls came over and asked my mom if she had any girls they could play with. My mom sent me and my sisters out with them. They were sisters also. Me and my one sister were inseperable from them that from that day. They moved to another state a few years later, but me and Kim always wrote letters and kept in touch. I just talked to her on the phone about a week ago.

My very first TRUE friend was this girl name Toree that i met in 4th grade.We stayed friends all the way til highschool.Seem like after graduation it just faded away.We had good times,many laughs.I really do miss her til this day.Actually I am trying to get in contact with her.She is not even on myspace.I'm thinking about joining classmates.com but I just dont want to pay.It just might be worth it finding a good friend like her.

Now you are really asking me to think hard. I remember a girl named Paula that lived down the street from me. She was in the 2nd grade, I was in the 3rd. She would come up the street to play. We often spent many hours playing marbles, hopscotch or jump rope. When she got a new bicycle, she would let me ride it. I ran into her about 9 years ago. I hadn't seen her in so long. She still looked the same. She remembered my face, but not my name. She actually was surprised that I her at at all as many of her old friends don't recognize her anymore.

My first friend was a girl named Angel. We were in second grade together. I moved out of state before the end of the year. Fastforward to the 10th grade. I moved back to the same town with no real recollection of this girl. My older sister introduced me to her friend daughter who was my age. It was Angel! That was so many years ago and we have always talked even if only a few times a year. Now I once again moved close to her and we talk on the phone usually daily and see each other usually once a week!

The first friend that I remember is April Davies. We lived in Vallejo, California in Naval housing and she lived down the street from me. I think I was 6 or 7. I am 36 also and she is the earliest I can recall. I think that I still have her picture. I wrote on the back " April Davies is my best friend."

Greg Little, and I wish I could find him. We met in preschool then went to the same elementary school. He was black and we lived in a very homogeneous suburb. His family was the only black family in the school system at the time. They were basically run out of the schools. The last I heard, which was in 3rd grade, he and his family moved to Chicago and opened a pizza place. I also have a friend I have been friends with since kindergarten. We are still friends.

Mine was the boy next door, Michael. I loved him and I had the biggest crush on him all through grade school. He ended up going out with another girl in the neighborhood when we got older, though.
