Close Friendships

This article on how many close friendships one can maintain just made me block out time on my calendar today to map out my friends. What an excellent and thought provoking read.

These two facts made me perk up:

“Falling in love will cost you two friendships.” and “It takes about 200 hours of investment in the space of a few months to move a stranger into being a good friend.”

  1. I love this visual and did a project about this 10 years ago called “people in my life”. See it here on my old site: http://cargocollective.com/JakeKahana/People-In-My-Life

    It’s a poster with an inside joke from 150 friends, family, and coworkers.
