It doesn’t apply in my case. I’m a woman and I have a female friend (former coworker, she’s moved back to NI now) who I can just pick up with where we left off. She forgot to install telegram for almost a year on her new phone so I had to text her to remind her I exist, and we just went back to chatting like nothing happened. I’m autistic and she’s a bit weird, so I don’t know if that affects anything. But we can go a few months without chatting and it doesn’t matter. In my case, if someone is important/significant to me, then it doesn’t matter if a few months go by. Same with the few relatives I get on with. If we’re talking several years, then yeah, people change, grow, move on.
