Hey! I need some advice.

Hey the advice I need is about my best friends and me.

I'm going to head off to college in September and I'm a little scared that me and my two best friends are going to pull apart.

We have been best friends since the 7th grade and I really don't want to see our friendship end.

The reason this is coming to my mind, is because lately we have been maturing and getting different views and hobbies. I don't know.....please just pray that we will stay friends or that whatever God wants done we will allow it to happen. :prayer:

Thanks for listening!!

Just tell yourself that you are not going to lose touch with one another. Set aside one day a week and call them. Take turns doing the calling. But if they don't seem to call you as often, then you may have to be the stronger person and call them.

Thank-you for posting this thread, because now I'm inspired to call some friends that I've lost touch with.

If you are true frenz, it WILL work. My best friend of now 11+ years and I met, too in the 7th gr. She move to SC and shortly thereafter my Dad was stationed 1 1/2 hrs from her. She then moved back to the Midwest and I moved further south. The last time we saw each other in person was a little over 8 yrs ago. Thank God for stamps, email, and phones. It's amazing how much our lives have paralled in the time we've been apart. She's still my "BESTEST" friend in the universe.

yeh - I went through the same thoughts when I moved off to uni and left my friend of 13 yrs behind. At first I was so worried that with meeting new people, and work, well yeh just everything that I would lose contact completely... However, I've found over the past while that a friend of that long, and someone you don't actualy want to lose contact with will always be in your mind, and in your thoughts. Just make sure that when you do catch up with that sort of person that you make the most of it - and I am sure things will be ok. I'm sure you have spoken with them about it - but also make sure to update each other on how you think the keeping in touch thing is going, what could be done better by each of you etc. That just my few views...

Let me know how you get on with this one,
