Everytime I make best friends with someone, they move away.

I was best friends with this girl named, Ashlea. Me and her have known each other ever since we were born. How did we know each other when we were newborns? Our moms were best friends. Self explainitory. She moved away to Hampton when I was in the 7th grade.

After she left, I had no one, then I made best friends with Megan. me and her went everywhere together in the 7th and 8th grade. She moved away to another county, making her go to a new school. She never talked to me since. She avoids me because of her "REPUTATION".

When I was friends with Ashlea, I had another Best friend, Michael. He and I were next door neighbors when we were little, I moved away to another neighborhood, but we kept in touch. We kept still being best friends. We had a little "relationship" going on. he moved all the way down to Florida. I barely hear from him.


Everytime I make a best friend, they move away. Im tired of getting hurt! It hurts so bad. So, im just sticking with just making friends at school...but not making a best friend. No matter how much my body yearns for one, Im not going to let myself have one. Because i know they will be taken away from me.

My mom sat me down and asked me what happened to the friends coming over to the house, and I said, "im perfectly fine just reading and staying in the house."


She thinks im being anti-social, when im really not.


God--no one understands what im going through...

I understand. The same thing happened to me. All my friends eventually find somewhere else, but everyone has a reason for moving on.

ummm, no purposly distancing yourself from other people (weather from a fear of being hurt of not) is being anti-scocial. but that doesnt mean its a bad thing. im anti scocial too!

also i am sorry about your friends. all of my friends are moving away/ graduating at once and im going to be all alone for the rest of high school D: oh well.

Talk to your mum about it. Mums are often best, because their wisdom has stretched back down the years. I do feel sad for you though.
