I have always felt extremely fortunate to have had a hardcore group of friends that have remained friends for the last 30+ years. There's 7 or 8 of us guys who get together a few times a year, but with our wives and kids and other friends, there is a pool of many people that I feel close to. Big get togethers are rare but amazing, and the more regular stuff, though still rare, fills my cup to the point where I am ok with the more casual friendships I've made later in life. I enjoy being social with people without feeling like I'm trying to fill a friend-shaped hole.
