I do not live in the same city as any of my childhood, high school, college, or late 20s friends.
Basically, I never see them.
We text, sometimes.
I do not spend social time with my coworkers.
I have maybe 1 “friend” I have developed locally.
My social life consists of my kids, their school activities, my wife’s family, and my wife’s friends & husbands, whom I don’t really like spending time with that much.
I consider you my friend

On the other hand, my wife has several high school friends that are local, and an endless pool of “mom friends”, with a few very close mom friends. She sees some of them at least once a week. Often multiple friend outings in a week, but this is her life being the caretaker of the children. They do activities while I am at work.
