growing apart?


Question Posted Thursday July 26 2007, 1:43 pm

3 years ago my best best best friend moved legit half way across the country. We still managed to saty the best of friends and got to visit eachother a couple times. then a year later she moved back a couple staes away and i was so happy! we got to see eachother all the time because it was only a few hours away. We called eachother everyday and always had stuff to talk about no matter what. We were the ideal best friends. We have never been in a fight we tell eachother EVERYTHING and were always there no matter what. Well lately we havent been talking much. yes its summer and were both busy and we keep missing eacothers calls and now we hardly even talk. And when i do call her there isnt much to talk about. Its seems weird or something. Im so afaid that were growning apart. I dont know what i would do witout her. I dont want to loose her she means more to me than my family. What should i do?

Well, if you call her and there is nothing to talk about, that means you probablly told her everything!! lol. You're not loosing her, you just might told her every single thing in your mind! So wait to call her and if something comes up, like, say your dog had puppies, or your mom is pregnant. You know, stuff like that. And she might have something to say too. So don't keep calling her and say nothing, because she might find that annoying after a while. Hope this helped.

To "rekindle" your friendship-- first buy a card and mail it to her. You know, one of those "I'm missing you" type cards.

Make a committment to yourself (a promise) to see her on a scheduled, regular basis no matter what. In other words, make the time. Put your other friends and boyfriend, on the back burner that weekend.

Spend the entire weekend at her house, and next time, she can spend the weekend at yours.

Continue to send cards periodically. You can get into a crazy contest to see who sends the funniest card to each other, constantly trying to out do the other. It's fun and satisfying.

Send her a little gift that means something to you both. A little treasure that has significant meaning to you. Maybe a friendship braclet, etc. Or anything that reminds you both of something you once enjoyed or shared together.

If you both have cell phones- text message each other throughout the day, or night, and chat online on a messenger.

Make a point to keep the friendship alive and nurture it as you would any valuable family member.

Use your imagination. Make mental notes to yourself to talk about a movie you saw, or a tv show episode, a music band and song, anything that you both have in common.

i know how you feel. i had a friend like that too. but my friend didn't move she just went to a different school. what you should do is call her and invite her to your house and hangout and keep doing that for a while and see how it goes. because the reason you feel distant from her is because you guys don't hangout with her enough well i hope i helped!
