How have your friendships with other women changed as you’ve gotten older?

When we’re younger friendships often happen naturally through school or college. You see each other every day, talk about everything and staying connected feels easy. But as life moves forward things start to change. People move to different cities, get busy with work, relationships, marriage, divorce or their own responsibilities. Sometimes friendships grow deeper with time and sometimes it becomes harder to stay as close as before. Life just takes everyone in different directions. At the same time the friendships that do remain often feel more genuine and supportive. Curious to hear how others here feel about it. Have your friendships with other women changed over time or through different phases of life?
