When my kids were born, I was told that we\u2019d have no issues making friends with people who had kids in the same grade. For one reason or another, that really didn\u2019t come to play. As I finally attained age 50, I look at life and realize the best friends I ever met were from school.<\/p>\n
Maybe because I didn\u2019t live in a time of social media in school, but friends in school weren\u2019t so easily offended. Without Facebook and Twitter, there wasn\u2019t any miscommunication and you didn\u2019t know whose Sweet 16 or birthday party you weren\u2019t invited to. As an adult, the silliness over why you lost friends is absurd, just like the time I lost a good friend because I complained that her friend was taking too many pictures of her (the friend) kids while the camp photographer.<\/p>\n
I don\u2019t have many regrets in life, but losing touch with so many good friends is something I\u2019ve tried to rectify through Facebook. If I\u2019m in an area where a friend is, I take time to meet up with them.<\/p>\n
