[quote=Anonymous]When I think back to how I met any of the most important people in my life - my closest friends, longest relationships, DH - I recognize a common pattern. Basically, the friendships we make in our younger years stem from repeated, casual contact that gradually grows into spending time 1:1 which grows into spending more time together which blossoms into trust, sharing of confidences, and friendship. As our lives get busier (as we get older), the opportunities for that type of dynamic shrink or disappear. That doesn't mean you can't make new friends, but it means the dynamic will be different and/or you'll need to create an environment (join a sports league, get involved in local politics, look into socializing events at a religious institution) where you can gradually get to know people.
