Sorta me too, except I'm in my late 50s. I'm not really friends with "a group." I'm friends with individuals, many of whom know each other or don't, and they contact me.

It's a solved problem, since before the web, and even before the internet.

Yeah, I think that may be the main difference from folks that feel disconnected when they are off FB. I have relationships with individuals (or sometimes couples), but never with 'groups'. Probably the most group thing I do is people that play tennis where I do, but again, I have their phones and whenever I want a pick up game, I just do a few calls. I love leaving my laptop/smartphone behind and just go enjoy doing something without the fear of missing something.
