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

Exactly this!

I have two on social media but we haven’t interacted since before Covid.

4, ,only see them occasionally as live all over the world. Went to uni 30 years ago!

I did place an undergrad and a post-grad and only keep in touch with one person. Sadly I don't see him often.

Five that I’m in contact with weekly and see at least
a couple of times a year and a larger group who I see very periodically.

(I am 52) Still in occasional contact with 6 or 7 from undergrad (they keep trying to meet up). Close regular contact still with 1.
2 have died.

Postgrad - in 2019 I could have said 4, but oddly no contact since Covid.

2 from school (since age 8). One close and regular. One very occasional texts and rare meet ups.

My 70 year old mum still meets her "girls" from nursing training in 1974 a couple of times a year!

I’m 58. I have 2 I’m in regular contact with. Another 10 or so I still chat with on SM. I’m also in a pretty active group on Facebook of people who went to my uni where people post photos and memories. I know loads of people in that group, but not all. I went to a foreign university so dynamics are different to a British uni.

I married one, very close to two others (who married each other) and distant friends with 2 others.
I'm 45.

I'm 61 and zero friends from university. I'm actually glad to see it's not just me. University wasn't the best time for me, life's got much better since.

One from uni. Also one from a summer job abroad I met when I was in uni. And my other best friend is my friend from when we met at toddlers aged 2.

other friends have come and gone but these 3 have been my lifelong friends. I’m 40.

61 and still friends with 7 from uni. One of whom is my best friend and godmother to my daughter.

I’m 52 and am very close to one friend still, although we live in different cities now. I have another I am in contact with on Instagram but haven’t seen in years. DP is 50 and has a gang of uni friends who he meets up with once a year (they are all over the UK and abroad) for a lads’ weekend, and some of them he sees a lot more regularly.

48 and one friend. Two if you count a friend I made while at uni who was a local rather than a student!

I went to Uni as a mature student, then took a year out to have DC.

I'm still in contact with 7 of the students (out of 12) who were on the same course as me, and with 1 of 2 who did the final modules with me when I returned from my 'maternity leave'. I'm also in contact with 2 of my former lecturers.

Having left school many years ago, I still see most of my old friendship group from senior school (we used to hang out when we were early teens). We're all in our 50s now.

47 and already knew a lot of people at uni before I went so am still tangentially in touch with some of them (posh networks) through social media. A couple of good ones I try and see. Lots from my boarding school.

Really didn’t enjoy uni having said all that.

I'm 46 and have 6 friends from my uni days. We don't see each other often as we all live in different areas. Another two are on Facebook but we don't really connect.

None from uni. We all went our separate ways into careers and family. I bump into them very occasionally at work related events and we have a good laugh about the old days but don't try to stay in touch.

Most of my friends are from shared hobbies, a couple from work. Some friendships are over 20 years old, some very recent.

I'm still friends with one classmate since secondary, age 12.

I went to uni as a mature student and although I still live in the city where I did all my degrees I am no longer in touch with any of the students on any of my courses. However I am still in touch with my doctoral supervisor and some of the tutors. When you go to uni in your 40s young people of 18-20s are not going to really want to socialise with you because it would be like socialising with their mum!.

I'm 53: one who is still a very good friend; several others who are now just Facebook friends.

49, 1 friend from uni. 7 friends from secondary school. I see 2 of my old school friends every other week as we live near each other.

I'm early 50s, and still good friends with half a dozen, but only really, really close (as in chat/message/visit very regularly despite living far apart) to one.

I'm 63. Kept up with my uni friends for a few years afterwards but that gradually fizzled- in touch with a few on social media, one who writes letters every Christmas (ex bf) and one from my post grad course by Xmas cards only, who I haven't met up with in person in 20 years now.

I am good friends still with two from sixth form and loosely another two. Most of my other long term friends I met through work or as flatmates of my school friends.

Late 50s none. I am however still in contact with 2 school friends.

None. Was part of a big friendship group with dp from uni. He turned out to have horrible kink/fetish and I was so mortified and terrified they’d find out and I’d be publicly shamed for being with him that I left him, left the friendship group and never looked back, never spoke to them again.

Early 40s and close friendships with 3 although we don’t get to see each other as often as we would like the group chat does go off daily though
