if they're a true friend they will never forget you,but, you as a true friend, however, should always keep in contact with them whether by emails, phone calls, letters, whatever form of communication so that you and your friend would always have someone to confide in and be there for you and you for them. don't worry you never forget true friends and they never forget you.

believe in yourself.  When you leave highschool most of these people you will probably never see again. There is a WHOLE huge world out there you know?  And it really doesn't matter what they think. LOVE YOURSELF .. you are the one that has to live with you

Before you even consider moving , make sure you can take care of yourself.Obviously it is to your advantage to stay at home as long as you can, go to school-get a job- then worry about entering the "real world".  Its a jungle out there whether in KS or In or whereever -be prepared

As an adult in my forties, I regret that I didn't go to any of my high school functions so, I would tell you to go to your high school bonfire so you have no regrets later.  High school is a fun filled time in your life and you should take advantage of your ability to share experiences with your classmates before you go your separate ways once you graduate.  I encourage my son to participate in school activities while he has the chance because soon he will be an adult with responsibilities and obligations.  Go and have fun!!

Meet all the new people you can.  Of course you will miss your friends and what is familiar, but remember that there are all kinds of wonderful opportunities awaiting you at your new school.  Be open to the potential.  It's not an end, it's a beginning.

hey! i just finished my sophmore year. so it's fresh in my mind. \n\nit's almost like freshman year, but you'll probably (depending on your school's curiculum) have more classes with upperclassmean, which is a great opportunity to make new friends. a great way to make high school in general better, get involved in a club, sport, activity that you like or are interested. if there isn't one you know of that you like, go to a club that one of your friends goes to. having someone there you know will make you more comfortable. don't be afraid to try new things!\n\nhaving something besides schoolwork to focus on while at school (for example i'm on drumline), like a club, will give you a more positive idea about being there. some of the best memories of high school i have so far are of me and my friends hanging out in the empty school during drumline practices. \n\ni hope that helps some! don't worry too much and have fun.

the most important thing i'll tell you right now is that by one year after graduating you'll be lucky if you talk to half of your friends still. by two, you'll maybe have a handful. and by three to four years after school of you've kept one friend from school, you'll be lucky. most of us change and grow apart and go in all sorts of directions. this gives you the opportunities to make friends with similar interests, and connect with people that grow with you. and then families take up lot's of time and spouses. you see people you know and say hi, catch up, talk some gossip, and move on. and that's the way it should be. don't let irresponsible or immature friends hold you down.

If there are true friends, they will understand your feelings. Moving from one extreme to another has made you see what your preferences are as far as where you choose to live. You are happy. They shouldnt hold that against you. Just explain how going back made you feel, the good about seeing them and the bad about the city.

Not necessarily. I'm still friends with a friend I had in kindergarten, and I moved 1000 miles away.  (I'm 37 now!)

You can't help it if you guys are naturally drifting apart. If they no longer make the effort to see you, or each other, chances are that they don't deserve your company. You will make tons of new friends in life, it's ok to leave behind school buddies.

You will have a lot of 'friends' through your school life. It's very normal for friends to come and go in your life. I will tell you that I have been out of high school now for 30 years and I have 2 friends that I still keep in touch with from there.\n\nIn your life, you will have many acquaintences, but your true 'friends' you will be able to count on one hand and have fingers left over.

You don't need a lot of friends.  In fact the more friends you have the moe you have to help move.  Concentrat on establinshing one or 2 reall good friends who accept you the way you are.

Sweetie it is always a big transition going from jr high 2 high school. Some girls still act like their in jr high once they enter high school. Don't put limits on yourself when it comes to meeting new people, you are your own person and high school is a part of growing up not only does high school help you spread your wings but it also helps prepare you for the next level. Tell your friends that you enjoy meeting new people and that you are not gonna limit yourself to just one group of people. If they can't accept it then its their loss and you will always be their friend but you feel that you are maturing and its time that spread your wings and meet new people. They will probally be mad at first but once they realize that its not jr high anymore their whole attitudes will change and they will start to see the big picture. Trust me its okay to have new friends this happens everyday its a part of life and you just happen to be one of those young ladies that has matured a little faster than your friends. We all out grow our friends at one point or another its just that some of our friends choose not to grow up.

yes i agree with past answers that it depends on age. personally i think since you guys are so young, there shouldnt be a difference of more than 2-3 years. I mean junior high and high school are really different enviornments for you both. It'll be hard for you guys to relate on alot of things. So think hard about it before taking a step. goodluck :)

This is a normal part of growing up.  It happens to all of us.  I remember crying my eyes out with a friend because we hadn't spent that much time together, and now we're graduating and won't see each other in a while!  I have seen her twice since then; 14 years ago.\n\nYou'll miss your friends at first, then you move on.  If you go to college, you'll make lots of new friends, and they'll have a lot more in common with you.  If you work, you'll meet friends at jobs.\n\nKeep in mind that if you were very best friends, you will remain very best friends.  My friend since I was 10 and I talk every now and then, but we live in different cities and are in different points in our lives.  She's a single mom now going back to school, and I'm married with 3 kids and already graduated from college.  But we still talk, and I'd still consider her my friend!\n\nRelax and enjoy this moment in your life.  There are many big events to follow soon!  Your life will start changing dramatically as you grow up!  And you are ALWAYS growing up!\n\n(Your e mail address isn't confirmed so I can't write you back, so I'm editing this...)\n\nI'm sorry.  This is a normal part of growing up.  Changing friends, changing lives.  You met these friends, you will meet more!  Being sad is alright.  Let them know that you will miss them, and that you wish them luck.  Maybe in a few years after things cool down you'll see them again!  There is the internet, after all.  When I graduated, there was no internet or cell phones.  Getting in touch with people was much more difficult.  I've recently gotten in touch with some old friends; and it's nice because it's been so long we have so many stories to share!  I had lunch with a girl I haven't seen in 7 years a couple weeks ago, and I'm having dinner with a friend I haven't seen in 17 years Friday!  I'm really excited, and I'm bringing all kinds of pictures!  We met when we were 12, and now I have a daughter about that age!  Funny!\n\nLife is fun.  You'll enjoy it.  I'm glad to see that you are so aware of your feelings and not afraid to talk about them.  That's the first step in being an adult!  So many adults have trouble because they can't understand their feelings, and if they do, they won't talk about them!  You'll do well in your life!

If you don't think that you are learning, you need to talk to administrator and if he/she won't do anything you need to have a serious talk with you parents about switching schools. Don't be worried about the grade your friend got; only worry about yourself at this point. If it turns out that you do switch schools, forget about your social life for a while (yes it seems impossible) but it seriously helps if you have no distractions. You need to focus on catching up to where the rest of the class is. Talk to your teacher about times when you can go in and ask for help on homework. Surprisingly, you will find out that teachers do not want you to give you an F. If they could, they would give anyone who tries an A. Last year, I had really bad grades because I had switched to a harder school. But now, I am proud to say I am all caught up! I even managed to get in to English Honors! The people around you will give support to you when needed. Parents are the biggest help also. My parents went and talked to my teachers to tell them to take it a little easy on me. Keep you head up high! Never say to yourself that you can’t make it through because if you tell yourself that you will surely fail. Also remember that you are not the only person who has or will go through this. You are not alone! I wish you good luck!
