Keeping in Touch


Question Posted Friday November 13 2009, 12:01 pm

I'm TERRIBLE at keeping in touch with people. I had to do it all through high school because i switched to a private school so it was really hard to keep in touch with my public school friends but i struggled through it and mangaged to do it. but now that im in college its all happening all over again adn i hate it. I just "fb divorced my bf to be engaged to my friend here because she just broke up with her boyfriend and didn't know what to put her thing as" but now i feel bad about that (not that my friend really cares...its only facebook and we obvs weren't really married' but ugh i'm just so frusterated.

Stop feeling so guilty. One thing you'll learn as you get older is that some people come into your life for a certain period of time, for certain reasons, and then they're gone. Just because you may not be as close as you once were, or communicate every day, doesn't mean you don't care. A good friend is not always someone who you see or hear from every day, but someone who is there when you need them and who you can always pick right up with after you've left off. For now, just enjoy the new friendships you are making and check in with your old friends whenever you're curious enough about how they're doing or see something funny or interesting they posted on Facebook, etc. Don't think you're a horrible person because you don't talk to every person you've ever been close to every day. Life doesn't work like that. As you move through new stages of your life you'll make new friends. You're not a bad person, you're just normal. Trust me, your other friends are all feeling the same way. You can still be a good friend by just checking in from time to time and being the type of person that will always help when called on.

Trying to keep in touch with people when you've moved schools or house.
Like you said facebook is a good way to keep in touch and dont worry about the status, marriage thing. You didnt do anything wrong
Also texting, emailing and calling are good ways. And also just meeting up with people xxx
