I love basing my friendships around things I like to do, and having an allocated person to do that with, also having a process / routine that this thing happens around. Like a tiny religious procession of two.
E.g. : one friend is my coffee and a walk friend, another is a person I only exclusively hang out with to eat tacos once a month, a third friend to only go to cinema screenings with, another friend will join me for exercise classes and we usually get dinner afterwards.
I like this approach to friendship in general because itβs less pressure to have to come up with new things to do, and if you stagger time well then you always have things to do and people to see.

Tired of running into your best friend at game nights and birthday parties of your mutual friends only to be reminded that you don't make enough time to see each other one-on-one? Invest in a high maintenance ritualized activity together that you MUST do regularly -- for me and my best friend this consists of biweekly gel manicure fills followed by a trip to our favorite diner. Even if we let the gels grow out embarrassingly long, we know we have to go back to fix them one way or the other so this helps motivate us to clear our mutually busy schedules. We're so full after the diner that whatever tasks we would have attempted to complete that day are relegated to some abstract future weekend as we are forced to go back to one of our apartments and digest together. Plus the manicures help us with our BFRB symptoms that focus on our nails and cuticles. :')
Note: If you know of equally high maintenance but less expensive rituals that have a similar sense of time-sensitivity we are all ears.
