judo Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Twice now in the past 15 years my so called best friends have moved out of state. This isn't necessarily what you would think would be a big deal with emails, cell phones, etc. I made attempts to stay in touch, calling, writing but each attempt was ignored.... Why is it that they felt the need to just forget me? It hurts and baffles me at the same time. Was I that much a lame friend that it was so easy to forget me? I wonder if we were truely firends for all those years to begin with if they could just go on with thier lives so quickly... Im hurt and angry is this justified? Link to post Share on other sites

Best friends never forget other best friends. They just move on in life and their status no longer has any connection with you. It's similar to breaking up with a lover. Don't take it personally. When people move they have so many things to do and think about they push others to the side sometimes. After a time in a new place, people of the past take on a different relevance that really isn't of an immediate nature. I promise that one day your friends will return to your life. It always happens. Meantime, be a good friend to them by giving them their time and space, by being patient, by not demanding that they call or write, etc. You will find, in time, that just chilling and letting the world happen the way it will will get you through life the happiest. If you sit around and mope about people or close friends breaking contact, you will waste a LOT of what could be good days on this planet. Link to post Share on other sites
