The length of friendship

How long do you think you will remember a friendship ?

The other day, I had an old labmate (student friend) visit me in Switzerland after something like 12 years of not talking to each other.

Somehow, it seemed that I saw him the previous day...

Memory is such an incredible thing, it is a major opener to higher functions...

I think there is a critical period to make long lasting relationship, from childhood up to the twenties

You are right, this is analogous to the "critical development stages" that one finds in biology..
