This school year, my parent pulled me out of public school into catholic school. Freshman year so far has been great, except my old public school friends are starting to not understand me. They get mad everytime I hang out with school friends, and whenever I can't be with them they feel like they're completely losing me. But the thing is, they're not! I love them to death and they're my BEST FRIENDS but they don't really understand that. How can I fix our relationship? I don't know what to do with myself if I lose them. And everytime I tell them this they don't find it genuine. Please give me some tips on how to make our relationship better, and to make that best friends forever promise stay forever?

because where ever you go you're going to meet new people and any of them can become close to you.
i have moved alot and everywhere i go i have best friends and so now i have alot of best friends because they are all different and special to me.
so you should tell your "best friends" that in a new school you need to meet new people, someone to ask for the homework and to talk about the teachers and what went on in class. tell your friends that you do "love them to death" and tell them that in no way are you trying to desert them and that you just need to know people in your new seeting and that it might make it hard if you had no friends in your new school.
hope they understand that and if they dont i would stop telling them this and would just continue hanging out with both groups of friends and forget about what they think
good luck :) [ TheAnnie's advice column | Ask TheAnnie A Question ]

Either they get it, or they don't. & That end of the problem is theirs to figure out. 'True' friends wouldn't be giving you a hard time about this.
