Perceptions of friendship?

Hello everyone!

Sorry for what seems random, but I’m genuinely interested in your answers to those questions to compare perceptions and expectations. Friendships have changed from one's 20s to one's 30s/40s.
I'm curious whether I have unrealistic expectations of friendship or perhaps an unusual high need for contact... or perhaps just not found close friendships yet.

How often do you have contact with your good friends? How often do you text and see each other?
How do you know whether your friend is just busy or not interested in a close friendship anymore?
How do you know whether you are a close friend or just a casual friend for someone?
How do you make close connections with people?
