I’m curious how you all tend to keep in touch with your friends. For reference I’m late 20s/early 30s age range. I can remember talking on the phone all day when I was younger but after about middle school that type of communication just stopped. Now I don’t really feel like I keep up with people aside from social media or the occasional text. Other than that, any communication is to make plans to meet and catch up. I’m curious how other adults are keeping in touch with their friends.

I don’t want or need to be on the phone all day like we used to be, but I feel like there has to be some in between that others are doing to communicate with their friends when they’re not together. Do you mostly text, do you call randomly, do you set up a time to call, do you also only really talk during meetups? I know there’s no real right or wrong way but I’m just curious what the majority of people are doing so that I have realistic expectations and also don’t do too much or too little for the health of my friendships. I feel like I’m not really close with anyone and I’d imagine it’s at least partly because I’m not reaching out enough.
