When long-term friendships feel stuck in outdated versions of yourselves

My two best friends from college and I have stayed close for twenty years but lately when we get together it feels like we're all performing our old selves and I wonder if we've outgrown this friendship but don't know how to let it evolve or let it go.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The archaeology of old intimacies can become a prison when we're afraid to discover who we've become in each other's presence.
