losing them

ai feel so stupid for crying rn.
Im so scared to oose my High-school friends, im still a first year and i know all of us are busy with the programs we took in college.
We didn't completely lost connections, we still chat each other when we have time. But it getting harder and harder to reach out with our scheds. And it scares me sm. I know ill meet new people in college and make new friends but i dont to lose this treasures i have. They've been there for 6 years by my side, they are the reason why i chose to stay fighting, been there through all my tough times. I love this people, i treasure them more than myself. They are the reason why Im here. And im so scared, what if we just stop talking. What am i gonna do with my promise with em that "ill stay alive as long as i have my friends" when they're not here anymore. I know i might be overthinking it too much. But i really am just scared to lose the people whom i made as my whole world. Like damn it i could lose everyone except them.

Aside from on facebook, I lost touch with all my HS friends except one. I occasionally see the people she keeps in touch with at her gatherings but otherwise I don't really talk to anyone from that time of my life.

I kept in touch with HS people through the middle of my 1st year but by 2nd I made a new set of friends whom are almost all still very close 2 decades later.

I'm sorry you're scared, and while I can't know it will be okay for you- I hope for you that it will and that you'll keep the people you love the most and gain some more life long buddies in the coming years.

I lost my best friend the month before he went to his college of choice. Had a blow up fight, it was just really a sad way to end such a long friendship, SO cherish them while you have them, and know that some friends are only in our lives for the time we need them there, and then they move on. You will make new friends and make all sorts of cool memories in College, JUST HAVE FUN!!!! don't let sadness keep you from having actual joy in this time of your life!

Well I think it happens to many of us. Our college schedules are different and then we get jobs and then most get married and some have kids. Be diligent about coordinating get togethers every so often. My school friends and I started seeing each other several times a year when we were about 40 cuz that’s when life kinda settled down for us. We still do our girls nights. Not everyone can come every time but we try!

“People come, people go – they’ll drift in and out of your life, almost like characters in a favorite book. When you finally close the cover, the characters have told their story and you start up again with another book, and complete with new characters and adventures. Then you find yourself focusing on the new ones, not the ones from the past.”
