How many people from uni are you still friends with ? And how old are you?

[Kittencuddler]

only 4 here at late 40s but string friendships that have lasted over 2 decades so feel secure and see often

None of them. I’m 36.

0 from undergraduate
from post grad study about 10 but not close - meet up sporadically for reunions on big dates ( 5/10 years since we left)
sixth form 5 of us still close- message several times a week and meet up every few years (scattered all over the country)

edited to say I am 60

45 and none! To be fair I went to uni at 21 so already had pretty established friendships in other areas. I was on a weird course (media related) where it was every person for themself so that might have influenced it too.

I have other friendships that are over 25 years old but they’ve stemmed from previous jobs and hobbies.

I’m 40. One very close friend, two less close but still in regular contact. Quite a few others I am ‘Instagram close’ to and might see every few years at a wedding/college reunion type event. I was close to another until recently but got ghosted about a year ago - I’m still sad and confused about that.

55 and close friends with 7 from uni. Only made a couple of good friends since uni.

0 from undergrad and post grad. 30 years ago in another country though.

One from my legal practice course of 10 years ago. The latter is thanks to facebook being invented though.
I'm 52

0 but I didn't live in halls and so missed out on the social aspects. I had friends where I lived and went out with them. I'm 45.

Of undergraduate friends, only DH and one other, Most of my university friends are from my postgraduate years — probably ten, including my still-closest friends, though we’re all scattered internationally. I’m 53.

7 and I’m 65, including one who I was at secondary school with too( and university, we went to the same one!)

I'm in my fifties and am in touch with one person from university. She lives overseas though so probably only see her maybe once a year if that. I have various other people on Facebook, Instagram etc, but probably couldn't be arsed to actually meet up with them. I have loads of close friends from secondary school, though.

3 friends from University, I am 59.

Longest friendship is 54 years, met first day of primary school.

Longest friendship that I’m in touch with multiple times a week is 38 years from my first professional job. Have 3 friends of 20 to 25 years. My closest friend who I met when I was 12 died 5 years ago and also 2 other friends, lovely women I knew at University also died within the last 5 years.

0 am I am 36.

3 who I would class as very good friends
maybe 5 who I keep in sporadic touch with over social media
I’m 44

None. But I have four very close friends from sixth form college and another dozen friends from those years too.

I am sixty

11, one of whom is my best friend. I’m 45.

I'm 57 and still in contact with my Uni flatmates from 1987. We all live in different countries though and I haven't seen them in person for years. We keep talking about a meet up.

Me 37 - only 1. Don't see her often but message alot of the week.

DH is 39 and still got alot of uni friends. Meet regularly with local ones. Once a year probably with those not close by. Works with quite alot as well so that helps.

Mid fifties and none.

Late 50s.
1 that I see regularly.
Another 5 that I am in contact with.

6 very close, fairly active WhatsApp plus meets a couple of times a year
1 I was extremely close to but our lives got out of sync and I am not really in touch with
3 I was very close to at the time and still feel very fond of but in reality we only catch up on social media
A few other social media contacts

Most of my active friends are from when ds was a baby.

I am 54 and did a course in a niche area so I actually work alongside many college friends all these years later … socially my closest friends are all from college too

I'm 66. Friends with 4 of them.Meeting up in San Francisco next year

In my 50s. Only one (and a half?) from undergraduate really. But I have quite a close knit group of friends based around people who I met on my master's degree and we see them quite often. It made a difference that I met my DH at that time and they are very much mutual friends, plus they are quite local. Then I guess one from my PhD, though we weren't actually particularly close friends at the time, we have become friendlier since. The PhD was overseas so everyone else is very far away now - she happened to move close to me.We're going to meet up with another PhD friend early next year, but it's so long since I've seen her, I'm not sure it counts. Looking forward to it though!

Late 50s and three but very limited contact, Christmas cards, FB etc. Can go 10 years without seeing each other at all and very little in common.

6h form college OTOH, got a very close group of about 10 including partners who chat a lot and meet up regularly. I love them to bits.

Zero and I’m 49.

I’m still good friends with four people I was at secondary school with, though, and one person I was at primary school with. And also two people I met in my first job that I got six months after I graduated!

It’s interesting that my uni friendships were the ones that didn’t endure. I enjoyed uni and had friends and housemates throughout, but I do remember being very ready to graduate and move on.
