When did you realize that you out grew your friends

Was it something they said ,or something they did
When they were talking about woman all the fuckin time and always want to get their drink on. I love women, but I like to talk business, I like to hear a persons ideas and how they plan on getting from point A to B.

When you are my age and your boy is talking about some chick, your mind visualizes some Hot Mature Chick, but in reality when you see the actual female she looks like one of your Moms friends when you were a kid. :(

Damn I'm getting old - HNIC :hmm:
 
I haven't out grown friends since I was in High School. The guys I grew up with in my neighborhood was on some "lets still rims and radios" shit and I was like naw I gotta get my academics right so I can get into college. We parted ways in the 9th grade and we've just been acquaintances ever since. They're still smoking weed, working day labor jobs, chasing strippers and some still living with their moms. Now granted we're all in our late 40s...
 
Was it something they said ,or something they did

when my best friend for 30 years robbed another friend for 10k. I had one foot on the boat and one foot on the dock trying to keep it real and had to take my foot off the dock and sail
 
Im still cool with the homiez, but when I realized they rather stay local, then travel...

I knew I had to part ways an do me... and the only thing is, I love traveling by myself now..

and avoid group travel... I hate havin to follow someone elses itenerary....

fuck dat!!
 
40 still living at home that's scary but I realize that when the Same talk we used to talk when we was in early our 20s didn't get any better and plus guys are turning into the old-timers we used to see when we was coming up and we were shaking our heads with them now that's a few of my friends
 
When the conversation doesn't change as decades pass. When they keep talkin about you rich or boujie for becoming a home owner instead of congratulations on your new home. When you try to give game on gettin ahead but they always have a reason they can't do it.
 
I went home 20 years later and a few are still on the block drinking 40s. Most of my friends are like this. Sometimes I get survivor's remorse.
 
I come to the conclusion that relationships are a lot like hurricanes or tornadoes..

It takes specific types of elements to bring it together...they build in intensity...and if one element is changed the whole thing can dissipate sometimes rather quickly.

Losing common of interests is a huge factor in outgrowing a friendship. A job change, a location change, other people showing up...alot of factors but particularly losing interest in the thing or things you shared. Commonality of interest IS what relationships are.
