Well...my husband is my friend.

I have 3 girlfriends with whom I grew up. So we've known each other for over 50 years (or more). I treasure them, but "see" them almost solely on Facebook. There's 1 I talk with on the phone every now and then.

I'm still in touch (online) with many of the people I went through school with, but they are acquaintances that I see only every 5 or 10 years at high school reunions.

There are a few I've been in NAMI groups with, but I very seldom see them.

So in real life, only my husband.
