Email or text. I only talk on the phone with my BFF!

Email, text, dinner dates, occasional phone calls.

I still live within a 25 mile radius of where I grew up and so do all of my bridesmaids. So it's been easy to keep in touch via texting and also meeting up for lunch or dinner. Some of us moved away for college for a few years then returned home to start the next chapter of our lives, marriage and children. 2 other really close friends live in Boston and SF so I KIT with texting and FB.

Email and text! I rarely talk on the phone!

I have a group of 6 girlfriends who we've always been close, we always joke that each of us 'serves a purpose'. I'm usually the secret keeper/comic relief. Then there is practical, emotional/softie, fix-it(provides options to help w/problems) and we just try.to support each other how we can. 4 of 6 have kids, one is trying desperately and the other doesn't want any. That hasn't affected our dynamic too much. We all love one another fiercely.

I will say it's easier to share stories about j to the girls who have kids but the other two girls love him just as much! It's harder for our friend who hasn't gotten her BFP to hear stories bc she so badly wants it for herself, but she is so so amazing and spoils the kids like they were her own.

Lord this makes me miss mY girls!!!

txt, email, phone..

My close friends from high school and university are in Canada and I'm in Australia, so we keep in touch over facebook and email but unfortunately since I've been gone almost 9 years its become less and less frequent. Still, when I travel home I always make an effort to see them a few times and many of them have been over to visit.
With my friends here, my bestie moved to Melbourne this year from Sydney and due to her work she will be moving cities every year for the foreseeable future. We talk on the phone at least once a week and facebook chat probably 3 nights a week. She stays with my husband and I when she is in town and is throwing me my baby shower even though she has to plan it from afar! My other friends it depends - usually text, emails, and catching up in person. Its easy now that I don't have a baby yet, I'm sure keeping in touch will get harder once he or she is here.
I think as I've gotten older a lot of friendships have fallen by the wayside but the ones i've kept have grown stronger. It makes me feel like a loser sometimes to be able to count my close friends on maximum 2 hands, but I suppose thats just what happens!

I don't. What I mean by that is it's really hard with the extreme time difference. Plus, I'm a little put off because I've been the only one calling. I get that international calls cost money, but there's Skype and Facetime. I don't get why I'm the only one that calls, or that holiday cards rarely come, yet when it's for a gift registry, I get the card early. I'm a mom now, I don't have time for one way friendships.

But there are a few that keep in touch via FB, now IG.

Facebook, text, Twitter and we try to go out every once in a while.
