COUNTING OUR FRIENDS. HOW MANY CLOSE FRIENDS DO YOU HAVE?

prediction : relationship :
[+] serious ballot by contragrain
created Tue Sep 26, 06

This came up in an reply comment I made to a respected user on another recent ballot. It's estimated by some that 40 is the maximum number of close friends that ANYONE could POSSIBLY have. I assume he/she would be way out on the end of the bell curve for gregarious behavior.
I also read that an incredibly large number of folks today (in the US, anyway) don't consider themselves to have ANY close friends. I find that hard to believe; and, it's really sad if it's true.
How many close (human) friends do you have with whom you are NOT connected by blood (genetics) or marriage?

none
one
< 5; > 1
< 10; >5
< 15; >10
< 20; > 15
< 30; >20
< 40; > 30

I've prob got close to that, maybe more. I have about 18 or so close friends who I grew up with from school. We still meet regularly for card games, nights out etc. I've got a lot more who I consider friends but not as close as the other guys.

Voted : one
I have several people (6 or 8) that I enjoy being around. I have ONE (1) true friend. Friendship, like love is not easily found and it is taken to lightly by most. My true friend would lay down his life for me.
