I know I haven't posted in such a long time! I never have anytime doing school work! But you know what? Advice giving KATE needs advice. This will not be a contest, but still try your best!
I, Kate Ask, am losing a REALLY, REALLY good friend. Actually, you might know her. Her name is Kel. She is moving to another state, pretty far from me, and I am really, really sad. I know I will still see her a lot, but I might not. I need advice. She has comforted me a lot so much, I want to also thank her for being my best friend.
Yours Truly,
I have a friend who once moved really far away from me too. We met each other in the 5th grade. She and I shared the same interests and use to spend time together. Her parents were missionaries, so they moved to Tanzania at the end of our 5th grade year.
ReplyDeleteMy friend and I have not talked to each other for quite some time, but I have an idea for you and your friend. How about if you email each other? It is faster than sending letters through postal mail and it is free. You two can also talk on Facebook. Of course ask whoever is in charge of the both of you before creating an account. How about if you give her a special gift or spend some time with each other before she leaves, too? I hope this is helpful.
My friend is a lot like me too! Every day we email back and forth. Thanks for the advice!
DeleteHappy to help. :)
ReplyDeleteHmmmm, advice giving is NOT my forte, but, I'll give it my best shot. Stay in touch, thats the best thing to do. Email, write letters, heck, even call her every now and then. Definently hang with her as much as you can now, and even when she moves. You said that you will see her, so try to hang out with her as much as you can when she comes back. Thats all I have.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! Great advice!
DeleteRight, then. Well, I moved away from a friend several years ago... At that time, I didn't have email, facebook, or anything else to keep in touch with her besides traditional letters. Of course, it takes months to send it, have the other person receive it, and write back, so we drifted apart. I suggest taking advantage of the internet and email each other. I have another friend who I knew for several months before I had an opportunity to meet her in person. *online school... It wasn't like we were total strangers before we emailed. ;-)* We emailed back and forth daily, and now we're like best friends. That's what I suggest. And make every effort when you/she visits and before she goes to spend as much time together as possible. My brother's in a long term relationship with someone, but he texts her, emails her, and calls her on a pretty much daily schedule. He makes it a priority. So, that's my advice. :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I am sorry that happened to you and your friend:( I appreciate your advice:)
