OK , Boomer
You sound old as fuck.
Me and my mates would hang out all the time during the week and all weekend when we were young bucks. Nowadays we're all wifed and childed and that shit just ain't possible. So we have a few different WhatsApp groups which are constantly Active by a least a couple of the guys at different times to spin the shit, banter, have a laugh etc. It's an awesome way of keeping the relationships going when you have no time or a disrupted schedule around kids etc.
Your parents would tell you "all your Friends will completely change after you have kids" but due to things like texting and shit that doesn't need to be the default anymore
