God, Covid has severely hurt my friendships. It's hard to even think about "schedules" or anything until the summer -- over a year with minimal friendship contacts.
Video calls don't work for me, and everything is closed in SF. It's hard to explain, but video calls just don't seem real to me. It does very little to energize me in my friendships. I don't know how people do it.
Half my friends have taken the opportunity to move away, so they're gone for good except for a few times a year that we travel to each other after Covid. The other half I'm desperately hoping things naturally get back to pre-covid friendship levels.
