I grew up here and my friends are here. There's nothing wrong with here.

If you have two friends in your lifetime, you're lucky. If you have one good friend, you're more than lucky.

I was a tomboy and most of my close friends were male.

My husband and I get along great. We're both introverts, and it's hard to make new friends.

When I was in high school, the genders were so separate from each other. If you weren't 'dating' somebody, you couldn't just be friends with somebody.

When I was young, all the books were about a Mary Jane and the football player and the prom and ending up with the quiet guy and making your mom happy.
