Unfortunately, none of my childhood friends are close to me today, because I moved out of the area where we all lived a little over a decade ago.  For that very same reason, I can't say that my best friend during childhood is my best friend today.  We do still chat online once in a long while, though.

To be honest, I think it takes a very special set of circumstances for a group of people to be best friends during childhood and then successfully maintain that relationship as adults.  We end up taking different career paths, and in some cases move away -- sometimes just temporarily like when we go to college, other times permanently.  I think someone would need to have a close-knit group of friends who all stay locally for their entire lives, in order for them to be able to answer positively to both of the questions that you've posed here.

Your question has a emotional touch, Childhood & the friends we make at that time is completely pure. About all of my childhood friends still in my touch trough social medias. Though we are still connected to each others but we don't have that enjoyments we used to do in our childhood days.

And yes, my childhood best friend is still my best friend.

About two years ago i still had one of my childhood friends as my best friend but he later dissapointed me

when he betrayed me and ever since then i find it hard trusting him and i just had to stop making him my best

friend because as for me i believe it is weird to call someone my best friend when i do not even trust such

person so right now i know longer have a best friend that was my childhood friend...

Very few are still around me; time and circumstances have put some distance between us all. Some of them got married and relocated while for a few others, we developed different values along the way and grew apart
