[quote=Anonymous]I'm close to several of mine (I have over 30 1st cousins and I don't actually know how many 2nd+ but it's a lot). There's an annual reunion and now that we're adults the core group of us keep in touch and even get together when we can despite living a few states apart. Some of my other cousins I'm not close with despite playing with them a lot as kids because we just ended up as very different people in life. We're friendly when we see each other, but don't really keep in touch outside of big family gatherings.

My child is an only (rare in my family as you could probably guess) and she only has 3 1st cousins. She's very close with my sibling's kids and I imagine they'll be lifelong friends. Her cousin on DH's side has always been raised to view my dd as competition and despite dd always trying to be friends with her is always pretty salty that she has to share the grandparents/attention when we're in town. I would be surprised if they are friends in adulthood, but we'll see.[/quote]
