Q: 14/F
Okay, in first grade, I made a really good friend. In fourth grade (four years ago), I moved to another state. Me and my friend (let's call her Kat) were stripped away from each other.
When I moved, I met a new girl (let's call her Amy). Amy and I became very very very very very close over four years.
Now I'm about to move back to Kat's state, and I regret it a lot, because I'm making Amy cry.
Amy is actually mentally dependent on me, she literally tells me everything, and if she doesn't I can tell she's not telling me something.
Though I know she'll get over it eventually. I've been trying to introduce her to new people to befriend, but she's still attached to me.

Long story short-ish, I am going to move into Kat's house so I can go to a really good school. Which makes Amy even more depressed.

What should I do to make Amy cry less and make my parting easier for her?
(I'm an unfeeling monster, I realize. I know I won't cry. I've scolded myself for that. I know I have mental issues, but I keep them to myself)
Sorry times 50 billion for typing so much!!!!!!
Please help!
You're leaving Amy in body, but that doesn't mean you won't be friends. I've moved six times in my life (15f), and it never really gets easier.
You can't disappear completely from Amy's life; and if you think that you want to, you ARE an unfeeling monster! Luckily, in today's age, we have computers, and cell phones, and planes, trains and cars for visits.
Kat and Amy are two different kinds of friends. Make sure Amy knows that its not her you're leaving, its just the place. She will eventually meet someone new, but you should be there for her until she's ready to drift apart. Call/Text/Email/IM her after school every day for the first two weeks or so, then dwindle it to every other, then every three days, then twice a week, and so on. If you really want to stay close with her, then do so, but if not, break it slowly... like a drifting thing, not a "look I'm moving, and I don't care about you really, go kill yourself" way.

thanks
