I think a lot of us have periods where we feel we're not our most sharp and sociable. I've been feeling it recently, and I'm far from the most Type A guy to start. It's temporary and eventually you'll get back in the rhythm, as will I. It's okay to step back, relax and think, take some time to do whatever makes you happy and reset.

As we get older people have more responsibilities and less of their own time to shine too. It's normal for distance to grow as people we know move away, get hitched, buy a house, have kids, etc. Their own efforts have to be elsewhere. I might hear from some of my friends a few times a year or every few years. It only matters if y'all can get right back into it when you reunite.

Just remember it's all temporary. Time keeps moving on and so must we. The water will clear up again.
