Are you still good friends with your university friends?

[Willowdenedixon]

Wondering if I’m unusual in that I haven’t really kept in touch with anyone from my uni days nor did I ever have a big gang of mates when I was there?
Everyone else I knowseems to have met their closest friends during this time of their life who are all now their bridesmaids, children’s godmother, etc.
While I did plenty of socialising, most were friends for that particular time only, I knew them from different places, so they weren’t one big gang and I don’t really look back on these days as ‘the glory days’.
Anyone else?

I'm at uni now, started out with two main friend groups but now have just the one. As of now I can't see us being that close post uni (2 aren't from the UK either and plan on moving home post uni so they're likely to just be facebook friends). Then again had I lived in a shared flat I could've made closer friendships.

I sometimes wish I had more close uni friends, but I'm then Iucky to still have close friends from school days which I hope to hold onto.

I am friends with one couple, both of whom I went to school with. I doubt I’d really still be in contact with the woman if I hadn’t been such good friends with her husband.

I developed some serious mental health problems at sixth form, though, and lost most of my childhood friends. I still wasn’t well when I went to uni, so disn’t Make any close friends, and haven’t had contact with anyone since graduation.

I do have mummy friends and Isocualise regularly with mums in the village, but I don’t feel that I’ve ever made any special friends since being ill, and often i do feel like a failure. The friends I have now are always spending weekends with uni friends, or school friends, or old colleagues, and just don’t have that. (DH still in contact with some uni friends, one who lives rights at the other end of the country try, and the others are mostly overseas).

No not really. One I see about twice a year. Was in a relationship all through uni, when we split up 18 months after we graduated, he sort of got all our mates. They lived nearer to each other.

My best friends were made travelling. I also have one good mate from secondary school, and one from each job ive9had since uni. Not many, but they're great. Obv.

I'm 62, so graduated many years ago. My two best female friends are from uni days. One of them married the boy (as he then was) who had the room next door to me, so he is still a friend too. I'm in contact with 3 old boyfriends from those days, mainly face book.
I also keep in touch with a group of 9 or 10 old school friends and although we don't meet often feel a real tie and lots of common ground.
