They're Gone :(

They
Posted By: Ansley Merriweather on July 27, 2005


My two best friends aren't coming back to school here next semester. It is hurting me so much because they were the only two people that I can relate to who were my age. We shared everything with each other and it felt good that we were able to do that. Now I am really feeling the distance between us. Yeah we talk on the phone but, its not like having them right down the hall or in your room everyday. I only really kicked it with them so I have a problem with trying to make new "best friends".



There will never be any replacement for them and I will never try to replace them cause they are still my girls. They will forever be. I am friends with lots of people here and may even kick it with them from time to time but, I'd rather be around people that I will be able to "let it all hang out" around. Girls these days are messy and I just don't have time to be in any mess. I sit and observe how long some of these "so-called" friendships last and a majority of them don't. I'd rather be by myself. Don't get me wrong me and my girls are tight as ever its just that they aren't here. One is in another state and the other is at least 4 hours away.

Great You post Your true Luv like this.
True friends are never seperated by time, distance etc. Read through Proverbs sometimes about friends.
