I dont have a huge circle of friends really I have a best friend but she is also my manager and work disagreements have tainted the friendship slightly. Sure it will sort itself out eventually though and we would both be there for each other if needed.
I have a lot of colleagues who I am friendly with but dont see outside work.
Probably the one I am closest too now is someone I have only met since lockdown ( we live on the same street but only started talking last summer). She suffered a horrific family tragedy just before lockdown so I would like to think even though I didn't know her at the time i have supported her in some dark times since (court cases etc...) its difficult with lockdown as cant go in each others house but we go on walks regularly and chat every day on the phone. I would love that friendship to grow when things get back to normal as I have a huge amount of respect for how she is dealing with this new life she finds herself in and we have a lot in common.
