Printablechanges in friendships used to really bother me and sometimes i would feel as though i would never get over losing certain friends.
Now that i'm older i see it as a more natural thing. Relationships are fluid. I've found that it's much better to just be at peace with it and let the changes happen. Nothing good happens from being resentful about it, although it can be a very sad experience.  [Edited 12/1/06 9:04am] | |

I wish they would have at least told us why they left or why they must leave and never return. In some ways I feel deep sadness and hurt. All you others say Hell Yea!!  | |

I'm pretty desensitised to losing friends (for the most part). I've moved around my entire life and the truth is, most of our friendships are proximity based. Come on---how many of your high-school friends are you still in regular contact with if you live 100s of miles away? Some do this, I'm sure, but they're the exception.
Friends come and go in our lives. But I was watching "Clerks 2" Tuesday night when I got it on DVD and Randal's monologue about making new friends in your 30s really got to me. I cried my eyes out. | |

I think that is the hardest part after breaking up.

I joine the military when I was 19 and chose to go overseas. My life since then can be viewed in 2 year increments in which my friend cycle in and out of my life. Some have moved on, and I have moved on from others. Though since I've been in the same job and same house for 5 years, I feel as if I'm kind of wasting, and others are moving on. You know the weird thing? I've refound my friends on myspace, and all of sudden it doesn't feel so lonely. dont you have any pictures of you in uniform? | |

I've learned that people come and go, it’s sad to say I have gotten use to it so much so that now I don't even expect people to stay and it’s made me a bit colder but I've learned to just deal with it no matter how much it hurt you have to keep going, hell, they have. | |

so am I and it's hard to do because it's embedded in the way I think, I have to stop believing that every single person who comes into my life won't leave...I have to figure out how to stop doing that.  | |

it only bothers me when a friend gets married and/or has kids, and i know that there's a part of my past with them that will be gone forever...which i can accept, and i'm always very happy for them, but i still can't help but be selfish and wish they were still around to be goofy drunken morons with. | |
