closest friends while at school,with about a fifth saying they meet them at work.Social networks such as Facebook and Twitter now also play a major role in building new friendship.Theresearch points out that 25 to 34-year-olds make 22 friends via Facebook,compared to 18 to 24-year-olds whomake 12,and 35 to 44-year-olds who make just four.Forever Friends relationship coach Sam Owen says,“It is no coincidence that over a third of us meet our bestfriends at school.It is a key time in our lives when friendship is growing through sharing notes,giving gifts,seeingeach other regularly and laughing a lot.As adults we can often forget how powerful these small things are and howthe little things can make a difference.”Later in life we find ourselves losing friends.Over half of us lose friendship
