Thread: Friendship: The Good, The Bad, and Everything in Between

It's strange when you think the people you've grown up with are people you'll know for the rest of your life, and then suddenly you lose touch and you know you'll never see them again. But I'm actually kind of happy about that for some reason.

:hug: Sometimes the best thing for a friendship is a time out. Hopefully she will realize that she's missing out by not maintaining your friendship.

It can be hard to stay in touch. There's one friend I've known for years and we're not really close but when you've known someone for a long time it's like they become a keeper of your memories and it's nice not to lose that.

Me too. I lost touch with my former best friends.

Carol, I don't like Facebook to be honest. Not only because I have to insert my real name and all, but the fact that it's not like if I join Facebook, people from way back then would be interested in catching up with me.

It's really awkward when the folks and many family members have it, much less bring it up during conversations.

:look: I still don't have any truly close friends IRL. But I'm trying to work on it.

dreamerforlife That's very true that some people change for life :nod:

Kris Facebook has helped me reconnect with old friends from high school.

I'm very horrible in keeping contact with the friends I've made in high school. There's probably only one that I still keep in touch with (only because she lives a couple of blocks away from me and we often go out when we can) and two that I semi talk to (This is more of the fact that what's been going on our lives has deterred us in different directions).

I love making new friends, although insecurity does get the best of me at times. Still, it's nice to still keep in touch with them and all. If not, it's nothing really personal.

I have two best friends and we can preety much talk openly about everything.

Thanks for the advice everyone
I'm gonna try to talk to her one more time, but if it doesn't work, then whatever. Some people change. It's just part of life.
