and yet I feel like I'm 10 years old. I understand that as you get older, things change, people drift apart, and life goes on. I understand but it doesn't hurt any less Since I was 10 years old I have had the same best friend, always in my life, understanding me as no one does and now she is moving to Chicago As much as tell myself I'm being silly and acting like a kid, I still cry. And as many times I tell myself she might come back and I will still talk to her, I still feel more alone than I ever have since I met her. Stupid, huh?
No, I don't think it's stupid I've never been fortunate enough to have a real friend so.. I think that it's cool that you found somebody who means enough to cry over!! I'm sure things will work out for you just give it some time
i understand completly. i've known my best friend since i was 5, although we only talk yearly now i think of her often. we share a bond and history that i share with noone else.
I know how you feel.. It seems like all of my friends are moving in a different direction than me. I'm not sure that this will help, but that 10 year old in you is a wonderful gift to have. I know it hurts.
I kinda know how you feel, well I mean..... thank god for IM, I would have lost contact with so many good friends if it wasnt for MSN and AIM
my best friend since I was 13 and I broke up in August because I was seeing her older brother but it was a really unhealthy friendship anyway she became really weird as she got older. anyway you guys can still talk and visit and all that don't be sad
Aw, honey, thats not stupid! *hugs* I've had a friend since I was 8, we lost touch for 7 years, I missed her so much, it was like losing a sister, no-one ever has or ever will share the bond we do. We picked up again a couple of years ago, and although our lives are at different stages right now, we're still close. Can't you keep in contact with email / IM, I know its not the same, but better than nothing? x
i left my hometown four yrs ago but my two best friends then are still my two best friends today, even though my phone bill isn't a pretty site!!! There are always visits (which means travel!!!) and nothing changes, infact over time you realise that you could go anywhere and do anything but they will still mean the same thing and always understand yu better than anyone could...in the beginning there is re-adjustment, sometimes even bad misunderstandings, but in truth it strengthens your friendship, helps you to be less inter-dependant and allows you to go further in life and lead seperate lives, but still have the most special thing in the world: friendship!
I love you too, Chica,. and I'll see you soon. I shall call upon the powers of the universe to move you to CHICAGO too!!!
I've decided You can't go! sorry, I mean I don't want you to go I love ya, dog *in best Driving Miss Daisy voice* you're my best friend
see, my whole point is--what can you buddies do in real life that you can't do on the internet? (And if the obvious answer applys please post some pics). I feel as close to some of the people in here as I do to anybody in real life. If anything bodies just complicate things.
I understand and I understand the original poster, too. My friend just moved as far away as she could and I cried, too. Age doesn't matter. NaykidApe, sometimes we just need a real hug from a sympathetic person.
