its clear that you and your friend care a lot about each other..since you want 2 c her so bad..my advice is to finish school..and when your planning on going to college..attend the same college that she is! (sounds like your planning on doing that anyway)
But I have one thing for you to think about..going to this college..just because your friend is there..is that an advantage to what you want to do in your life or career area? well i hope i helped you! need any more help? you know where to find me! x0Lallyp0p [ x0Lallyp0p's advice column | Ask x0Lallyp0p A Question ]

I would tell them that i am a grown adult and i am responsible for my own actions. you will be faced with many decisions that people will not agree with you on, but if its truely what you want then you should be allowed to make them [ onetallguy's advice column | Ask onetallguy A Question ]

sunshine1030 answered Thursday November 25 2004, 3:36 pm: i know how hard it is to have a best friend go to college far away from you. i live in chicago, and left for college in boston this fall. all of my friends still live in the midwest, and it's really hard being away from all of them. but, if you want my honest advise, don't go to VA just for your friend. college is a time for people to move on with their lives, make new friends, figure out who they are. that doesn't mean that they forget about their old friends, such as you, because if you guys really are best friends, then you will stay in touch during college even if she is in VA and if you are in hawaii. my suggestion would be to look at colleges that YOU are interested in, and look outside of VA. it may seem like the ideal situation to go to school in Va and to live with her, but i've seen best friends who room together their freshman or sophomore year, and they ALWAYS end up getting in fights, and it never works out. please don't make your college decision based on where your friend is going. you have to pick a college that is right for you. maybe you guys can get an appartment after college, and go to the same grad school. i know this probably isn't what you wanted to hear, but i hope you see my point, and i hope this helped a little. good luck [ sunshine1030's advice column | Ask sunshine1030 A Question ]
