Daily was common when I was a teenager. Every other day was common in college. Weekly was common right after college. Now with a full time job, family, house maintenance, etc. I probably average once every 2 months or so and I'm amazed I even have that much time to spend with friends. I'm looking forward to retirement.

I wonder how it was when people didn't move as far as today. Geographical proximity might surely help emotional proximity.

Not really. Almost my entire extended family lives withing a single county and I basically never see them.

I live within blocks of most of my friends. But they are as busy as I am.
