My best friend moved away........?
My best friend moved away about five years ago. We've kept in close contact since then, and we're still very close. We've grown different over the years, but we still care about each other just as much. Over the years my relationships with some of my other friends improved (in fact, two of them had the same thing happen), but I'm always going to stay close with my friend who moved. You two may remain best friends, or you may grow apart some. For now, do keep in close contact with her. Don't forget about her. Take the chance to get closer to some of your other friends, too, but that doesn't mean you have to replace her. If she's as good a friend as you say, she should do the same.
My friend is moving away?
my best friend is moving away and i don't know how i am going to be able to manage without her. She is leaving in July which means she will be missing my birthday. She has a choice whether or not she leaves but she wants to go. How can i tell her that i don't want her to leave without making her mad or upset ?
How do I cope with my boyfriend moving an hour away?
From what you tell us, I would not be optimistic about your relationship.His moving out to stay with him family even before he moves to another city is a sign that he is not making an effort to work things out with you.My advice? Start living every day as though you are on your own and have no boyfriend. Be cold and distant if he contacts you, speak to him as though he is a stranger. He left you and you are moving on with your life.We have no idea about your personality. You may be the most wonderful, loving and caring person in the world. You may be complaining and difficult and never satisfied. You have not told us any reasons why he may have moved out.Getting over being dumped by a BF or GF is never easy. It takes at least a few months to establish our own daily habits and a circle of friends. but moving forward with your own life will give you a strong, independent position.If he comes crawling back with “I made a huge mistake, blah blah blah” make sure he proves to you that his is worthwhile. Don’t rush back.
I'm scared of change and the idea of moving 3-4 hours away from my family?
How exciting to move away. You'll get to meet new people, see new places and experience new things. In my experience I think people/you tend waste more time and energy and become more anxious and stressed more so about the anticipation of something then the actual event. Once the actual event/situation takes place you tend to look back and want to kick yourself for making a big deal out of nothing. Change and sacrifice is a part of life and becoming an adult, which you will learn to deal with the more you mature. Look, you might miss your family a little bit, but they aren't that far away, besides they aren't always going to be in your life. I know that is said to think about and it's hard but it is a reality. You might miss your friends and doing things with them, but it would just be a matter of time until your relationships, routines, activities with them would change. If you didn't move away, eventually they will/would. Friends will come and go in your life. You aren't in high school anymore and sometimes I've found that kids in there 20's still tend to hold onto mentality more so then not. You are entering a new chapter in your life and instead of wasting time dreading it think of it as an adventure, an opportunity. I love my pets to and although I don't care for the type of dog you have and I get how much you love him and personally I think you should take him with you. You could take him with you for a month or so, see how he does and how you feel and if you/he is having issues either get him a companion; look for doggie daycare and or bring him back to your parents.
What are some unique ways to stay in touch with friends who live far away?
I had one dear friend who moved far away who didn’t use a computer because she was blind, and lacked access to the kind of resources she would have needed to get online. I wrote to her every week on paper, and someone read her the letters. After she died, the person who read my letters to her wrote me a really beautiful note about how much happiness I had brought my friend.I have another good friend who moved far away who meets me online once a week. Okay, it’s not every week. We’re both married, and have fairly busy lives, but we have a default weekly meeting which we keep more often than not.When you want to stay in touch, you figure out how to reach them. It could be using the same server for an MMO, or a regular online hangout via social media, or even old school paper correspondence. Whatever works — or, realistically, whatever works for them, if you’re the one making most of the effort.
Why do all friendships die after moving to a new city only 2 hrs away?
That you have had to reach out for help and that somebody chose to block you suggests that it could be that you are feeling a little desperate and over contacting your old friends. This is not behaviour you would necessarily notice about yourself right away but moving and settling in to a new city 2 hours away will take time and it can be lonely. At 1st you may overcompensate for loneliness by reaching out more than people really desire and as they pull away then anxiety creeps in too. Contain the feelings of loneliness and anxiety while resolving them and control your emotions when talking with people so you don't come across as pushy or needy. Join some local clubs and try meeting people so you have new friends where you are. The friends who you did have where you lived previously will filter down into just the true friends. You can know hundreds of people but still be lonely. Its when you have something like 5 friends that you can share anything with that you don't feel lonely anymore. True friends are people that can talk to you everyday no matter where you are in the world but even if you didn't talk to them for years you would connect as if no time had passed.Joining clubs and looking for new interests that match your life's purpose will also give you a better sense of fulfillment and you may find you start enjoying your alone time more too.
Boyfriend is moving away. Should I end the relationship now?
When my boyfriend of 1 year moved to a different city, it didn’t even occur to me that I should end the relationship. We are happily married for last 7 years now.I think the very reason you are asking this question is -- you have doubts about your relationship with him. You are not so comfortable in your relationship and fear that geographical distance will ruin it. If you love him enough and think that he is the one, you will make efforts to keep him in his life. The reason this question came up in your mind needs more contemplation and breaking up afterall is a good idea!!- Friends, family members or stories have ruined your faith in the fact that long distance relationships do no work. Do not listen to them, friends and family members do not want you to take risk as they think you might get hurt and stories - well they not always convey what is true!!Relationships are complicated, they need work and yet at the same time it should not feel like a work!! Listen to your intuition!!
