i was looking at questions on this site and i came across one that i'm positive my "best friend" asked. she doesn't want to be my best friend anymore. i'm just really confused. we're going into high school, and i figured we'd both meet new people and if we grew apart, then so be it & if we stayed close, good. but why would she want to deliberately push us apart? i'm not holding her back from anything. what could have caused her to think like this? is it just a phase or should i move on? i mean, i have lots of other close friends but i'm just kind of surprised. why does she want a new best friend? can't you make new best friends without ditching your old ones? what should i do? thanks so muchh.

But, that doesn't mean that you totally have to stop hanging out with your old best friends. I say you should talk to your best friend about it. Tell her even though you might not be in the same classes together and you'll both make new friends, you can still hang out together. Your best friend might be thinking that you guys will definetly not be as close in high school, but that's not neccesarily true. Hang out with your new friends and old friends; introduce them to each other. You can never have too many friends. If your best friend doesn't listen to you and insists that you shouldn't be friends, then maybe you don't have as much in common anymore. Don't worry; there are alot of people in high school to become friends with, just hang out with your close friends and make new ones. Good luck. =) [ NoLies_JustLove's advice column | Ask NoLies_JustLove A Question ]
