Well remember, ur friend will always be there for u but guys come and go. If u end up w/him and eventually "u will" break up- odds are. Then what? u don't have him and ur best friend has found another. Let me tell u, I had a very best friend in high sch. and we were inseperable 1 day another friend of mine says;tell her or I will! Sooooo.. my frined say's I F*****-John (my bf) I was heart broken! she almost laughed. She was my best friend!? what the hell? but now he ended up being a loser and she ended up w/3 kids to 3 diff guys and she's w/none. I am married 16 yrs w/2 kids and happy. I know u didn't need to hear my life story but u got it anyway. Chose ur friend! plenty of guys will come along later. Don't b a friend like mine was to me.

Try not to take it personally that they want to spend time with others, too. I know it's hard-- everyone goes through it. Try to find someone or something else to occupy your thoughts and free time-- and really enjoy the next time you do hang out with your best friend. Just remember: "best friend" doesn't neccessarity translate into "only friend".

Make a vow to never stop calling each other, NEVER stop being best friends, and NEVER stop writing/emailing.\n\nI grew up in a military family so we moved constantly.  But I still remember when I was seven, moving away from my neighborhood and best friend Laura in Las Vegas.  Twenty years later we still have each other's phone numbers and emails.  So what ever you do, don't slack off on the writing and phone calling.  I am saving up for a trip from my neighborhood in upstate New York to see her in Las Vegas again.  Soon ....

this depends on how you feel about the person - have they been a good friend for a long time?  Do you just work with them and not socialize outside of work?  \n\nIf they are a good friend - show your true feelings - don't h old them back, b/c they may be feeling the same way and don't know how you would feel.. If you want to stay in touch - tell them that! (and make sure that you do!)  When my best friend moved away, I gave her flowers on the day she left, we are still best friends even though we never see each other but always e-mail!  \nSomeone from work?  depends on how you feel about that person too - but a nice gift is appropriate if you feel you want to - nothing elaborate - but something that shows them that they mean something to you and you wish them the best!\n\nIf, however, you LOVE this person (of the opposite sex) then TELL THEM before they leave if they don't already know!  You never know what may happen!

I, too have drifted away from friends I know since childhood. The best thing to do is have a peer mediation. Sounds totally, dorky, right?  Talk to her privately, so no one get embarrassed and tell her your honest feelings. i know it may be hard at first, but trust me, once you get going, it'll be easier. Set up some rules, like no interruptions, and let her talk. Tell her she's been hurting you, and that she's too bossy! don't raise your voice or tell her you hate her though. =P LET HER TALK TOO! Maybe she's been going through something. when my friends and I did this, I let them talk also. WE all ended on the floor bawling, but it was GOOD. I felt...RELIEVED. My friends and I are A LOT happier, and now, we know to talk BEFORE we blow up. Let her say what she needs too, but IF SHE starts getting aggressive, or rude-WALK AWAY. You don't deserve that. Maybe your friendship can be salvaged, most likely no, but at least you won't end the friendship on bad terms. Tell her that this is what's best for both of you, and you know longer desire her he company. Be the better person and walk away if things get ugly.\nGod bless, hun!

Pull out the knife and move on.  Best friends don't stab you in the back..... so perhaps the friendship was one-sided.\n\nBest Wishes,\n\nSue

If she was indeed your best friend, be straight forward and ask her why the sudden change in attitude?  If she says she is extending her network of friends, then let her be.  Remember, absence makes the heart grow fonder so when there has been enough time that has passed, she will (hopefully) realize you're not there and actually MISS you enough to CALL YOU!  Hope you all patch things up... make sure there wasn't a lack of communication or miscommunication.

It sounds to me like you need a new best friend.\nIf he acts like that toward you then he is NOT a friend.\n\nI doubt if he will change back to how he used to be.  I've never heard of THAT happening.\n\nSince the two of you were freinds for SO long, that tells me that YOU are a great friend to have.\n\nIt should be VERY easy to replace him with someone who will appreciate having you as their friend.\n\nLeave the loser alone, move on and find new freinds so you can go back to being happy!

Forget it and move on - if they are sad enough not to have anything else to do in their lives then thats up to them, make new friends and enjoy yourself!

wow you have a problem.  You are going to lose somebody.  If  you talk to your best freind,  Your sister is in big trouble and I'm sure you will be held responsible.  After all, she's not responsible enough to control her own life, its very likely she'll blame you.  If you say nothing and your Best friend finds out you knew,  you lost the Best friend.  I'd say you have to talk to the Best friend and let her know whats up.  She deserves to know so she doesn't make a decision that she will have to live with.

Leave it alone. NO guy is worth losing a best friend. None. It will probably all blow over eventually and you will later be glad that you didn't do anything.

How about asking your best friend to play with you and your new friends, so she may be able to make new friends too.  Don't turn your back on your friend, you may need her some day.  I have been best friends with mine for over 12 years now, and she is the greatest friend I have ever had, she is more like my sister than a friend, and I wouldn't trade her for the world.

If your best won't hang out with you then she isn't your best friend.  move on and find a new one.

They are leaving for a reason so that wouldn't work now would it. Try being supportive instead and telling them that you will keep in touch and the friendship won't change just because they have to move away.  True friendships last a lifetime.
