It's possible, but you need to be very social. Basically you do group activities every few weeks, some people are friends but live further so you meet them rare

It's possible, but you need to be very social. Basically you do group activities every few weeks, some people are friends but live further so you meet them rarely, and some friends either need to live very close to you or share some activities (kids clubs, maybe some fitness activity, maybe work, etc). My sister has 10+ friends she actively maintains. I have 2 :)
