Catcher in the Rye- Chapter 18

Holden goes to the drugstore for a sandwich. Again, he thinks about calling Jane. He lets his mind wander for a little while, but finally decides to call her. As the phone rings, he becomes very nervous, but he is sad when no one answers. He then calls Carl Luce, who he used to go to school with. Carl and Holden make plans to have drinks later that night. To make the time go by faster, Holden goes to movie, which he says was really boring. After the movie he went to the bar to meet Carl.

Holden is desperate for company. Does he even like Carl or is he just sick of being alone?
