I have 2 good friends from highschool.

I have 2 roommates that I can hang out with and chill.

I have 2 pretty good friends from Kung Fu.

I have 2 very good friends form TaeKwonDo.

I have 2 good friends that used to be in Kung Fu.

I have a few acquaintences I've met over the years from college.

They have a few friends/significant others of their own as well, and I meet them/do stuff with them.

If I played that stupid "6 degrees of . . ." game, I bet I prolly know all the people in my town!

I was on a first-name basis with all 130 in my high school class, and lots in the other classes as well. The town I live in is small (~3000), so it's easy to get to know everyone. Out of those, there's a core group of about 8-10 that I hung out with a lot.

Down at college, I bet I easily know 250+ people -- and wouldn't be afraid to just drop by any of their rooms and chill -- and hang out with maybe 50 or so of them on a semi-regular basis, with a group of about 10 again forming a core that I see regularly.

I try to get to know everyone that I meet, and have them know me. I guess it comes from being the son of a resorting family for the past 11 out of my 21 years ... :)

You must be good with names. I'm not sure you could convince me that you're really close to 300 people though.

On Friday I hang out with my roomate's family and some of their friends. We roleplay. That's in danger now.

I don't know. I asked earlier in this thread and no one has answered me either. *sigh*

I found out who my best friends are when I moved an hour and a half away at the beginning of the summer. The people I see when I visit are my good friends. Have probably really seen 6-7 people quite regularly when I visit. And some other people I have seen randomly. It's good though - I like it like that.
