Friends forever?

May 24, 2022 10:07am CST
After labelling ourselves friends forever we all go separate ways, miles away from each other. Thinking it would always remain like that. At first you call them occasionally, then slowly it turns to texting them occasionally, then over the time it becomes wishing them birthdays. And then you realise you don’t even remember their birthdays. Your wishes are gone, you are even afraid of forgetting their names along with the memories. Years later, you initiate a call and you catch up with many things. And it goes back to nothing again. But you have salvaged your memories and you are happy. I believe that’s the kind of forever I have with most of my friends.

I had the same experience with my BFF in college. We met again through Facebook and we can't help but reminisce about the old days. We laughed a lot then. Nowadays, we went back to being busy with our own personal lives again and have been calling each other less frequently. I guess that's life. Sometimes, you remember and sometimes you forget. But it's great to walk down the road of memory lane with friends when we were once young and carefree.

@Henanas I am sorry what happened with your friends. I have a few ones and have a decent relationship with them. Some are closer than others.

I wish it was like that, it would be way easier to rebuild. For me, we grew differently and we don't get along as much as we used to. That's the case with almost all my old friends.

yeah that's true after being separated since high school, and they went to college I feel like i have fewer friends starting from more than 30 friends now the closest is only 4-7. Sad? Yes but when we get back together there will be a lot of funny stories
