Don't be afraid cause you'll never loose your friend. I have the same situation: after so many years of our friendship I had to move. But we still communicate with each other. She has new friends so do I. But we still miss each other and hope to meet one day.

I can understand how you feel. But with todays technology you have nothing to worry about. You two will meet other to hang out with and will have new friends. You were friends first and always will be. Just keep in touch by computer and phone if you can, or writing letters. You are only 2 states from each others. When I had to move from my friend it was 5 states and no computers. Hang in there. Just get the email or address, ask about the ball game and new friend and go out to meet some friends yourself. This way you will not miss your friend so much.

You say it is a great friendship so why do you feel so insecure? did you expect your friend to stay at home and mope just because she moved miles away? Is that what you do? Mope and just miss her? I don't think she would like you to be sad and unhappy just because she's so far away. and shouldn't you be happy she has found a friend in a new place? It csan be scary and lonely to be new in a place where you don't know anyone so be happy instead that she has found another friend. it does not mean she forgot you. It means another opportunity for you to gain a friend through her.

Pashun, why would you be scared. Remember the one's we take has best friends also have another circle of friends. She has now move to another community but that does not mean that your friendship is lost. It is just like going to College and your friend is going to another. But that friendship is still there. Best friends cannot be lost.

I know how you feel. My friend left for Dubai in Feb to work there. You don't have to worry, your friend will always be your friend no matter how many new ones she makes. As you long as you constantly keep in touch with each other everything should be fine. And you'll see how even stronger your friendship gets when you miss each other.

You both can still keep in touch very easily as there are so many technologies for it today. However, you shouldn't get scared if she has gone out to a baseball game with a friend. Because, after all, she needs some company too. If she had no one to go out with, wouldn't you feel sad for her? So do realize that she is just trying to adjust to her new surroundings by making some new friends. It doesn't mean she has forgotten you. Just keep in touch with her often and, if possible, make plans to meet once in a while. then you should be fine!
