I hear often or maybe just a couple times (not really sure but it came to me just now) that the people you choose to be friends with in college, or your close network of peers that you keep in touch with daily, have a very good chance of being the closest people to you outside of your family. I guess the reasoning is that you enter the workforce and at that point you don't get to choose co-workers so you may not like them, you have to work from 8-5, you start looking for an SO, may not go out as much, etc.
This is all very general, but for anyone who has been out of school for say, 10 years, how detailed is your level of contact with those you hung out with in college?
I don't really find it feasible to believe that you can't make close friends at any stage of your life; I can see people getting comfortable with what they have, but that doesn't make it any harder to make a close friend.
EDIT: I guess a lot of people have kept those close friends around. With that in mind, do you have any close people that you didn't pickup in college or before?
