Every friend I’ve ever gotten close with either moves away, or I move away from them. I’m so sick of always being alone. And once again my best friend is moving and I’m about to lose it. Maybe I just don’t deserve friends. Or a life. I’m so sick of seeing people with all their friends and parties and events on social media. I want that. Life is so unfair. I can’t even get a job to save up money. I just want some hope that things eventually won’t suck so badly. Sorry this is so random -xvxvx0
Hello lovely,
I’m sorry that you’re feeling this way. Having friends move away, or being separated from friends is not an easy thing to deal with. But the good thing is that with technology, it’s really easy to be able to still communicate with each other! Are you able to still talk to your friends through facebook, texting or another communication media? I find this is really helpful for talking to my friends from high school, since we’ve all moved away now. Another good thing is to plan to visit each other in advance. Set dates that work for both of you, and you have something that you can really look forward to. Remember that just because friends have moved away, it doesn’t mean that you can’t remain best friends!
Are there any other people that you know, that you are acquaintances with, and could start a friendship with? It may be easier on you to have some people to keep close with. If you don’t have other friends, I found what helped me was joining some clubs that interested me. I have social anxiety, so it’s very hard for me to make new friends, but I joined the school band and the local library group. Even though I didn’t talk the first few weeks, by that time, people had started to notice that I hadn’t quite found my place yet, and started talking with me. It was a really good way to meet people with similar interests, and make new friends.
You definitely deserve friends, lovely. Keep in contact with your friends that have moved away, and see if you can meet some new people in your area to keep you company.
Take care,Alexandria.
