When you were a kid your friends would be the neighbors due to proximity more than anything else. If you lived in the suburbs your parents probably knew the names and occupations of every person on your street. If you wanted to hang out or play you'd physically walk to the kids house and knock on the door.
When you were older and capable of driving or using other transit by yourself, you'd make plans with people at school, specify a time and place, and then that was pretty much it - you'd go there and have to be punctual and meet them. In contrast plans these days are always temporary and transitory since people can text each other in real time and say they're running late etc.
