moving away


Question Posted Sunday September 25 2005, 5:27 pm

My best friend always gets into arguements with her dad. And now she wants to move back in with her mom. And that means she'll be switching schools, and moving like 30 minutes away. And I don't know what to say to her. I want her to stay, and I've tried everything to get her to stay. Can someone please help me with this? I really don't want her to leave me. Because if she moves, my other best friend is going to move schools to a Lutheran school because she doesn't want to deal with having her move... What should I do?

ok i have divorced parents. so i cant really tell you to try and make her stay. i think you should just let her go ahead and move to her mom's house.
but, i think you should ask her if you guys can write each other each day and if you guys can talk on the phone or internet each day so that way you can still keep in touch.
also you guys could set up a fun day on the weekends on like a staturday so you guys could go see a movie or crash at the mall or go to a school football game. I know its hard to let your best friend go!

hope i helped

I know this may sound bad..but this decision is really all hers..if she is unhappy living with her father..its very unfair for you to put all this pressure on her to stay. All you can do is be a great friend by supporting her in everything she does..whether you make like it or not. Its a hard thing for a best friend to move..I have had so many close friends move away but its a part of life. You can of course tell her what you think and be like I want you to stay but ultametly in the end its all her decision. I am sorry!
Hope I was of help

Let your friend move, don't be so selfish. Thirty minutes away isn't that far, and she'll be happier. I seriously advise that you don't say anything to her about not moving away. I know I'd be pissed and insulted if my friend did that.

I know this must be hard for you. Ive never been in your situation but in your best friends'. Ive moved 4 times in my life.. all the places i have lived in i had really good friends. BEST FRIENDS. And im still friends with them! Some even live 2 hours away. Just because your friend is moving, doesnt mean your gonna lose touch with each other. Trust me.. if yall are best friends like you think yall are, nothing will happen to yalls relationship except you wont see each other everyday.
Anyways.. dont talk your friend out of moving because thats her decision. But just let her know that you dont wanna lose touch. I hope i helped. =)

Tell your friend how you feel. Let her know how sad you would be if you didnt go to the same school. If this doesnt work and she still switches school it really wont be as bad as you think. Me and a friend went to school for many years and one year she moved and had to start a new school. i was very upset but after the year started i wasnt that bad. If you have and other friends try to hang out with them more or even try to make new friends.Join a sport or a club you might find a new really good friend, you never know.

i know just how you feel, i had to move away from my firends and they have moved from me but its not that bad. as her best friend you should respect her choice. Tell her if she really wants to move away think about what ur leaving behind. Tell her that you will be behind her 100% with whatever she does but she should really think about it. Tell her to keep in touch of she does move away. Good luck.
