| Level: 43 Editor | As in, early tomorrow. Already-said-our-goodbyes tomorrow. I've had friends move away before of course, but not such a good friend, so far away, and in my adult life. My life up til this point has left me completely unprepared for how to act right now. Fuckin' sucks. Sorry, The Blog Network and all, I know. Just had to get it off my chest. --- "You're childish. What are you getting? Are you getting strawberry? Ha! That's such a childish flavor, only children eat strawberry." |

| Level: 49 Liberal Arts Major | Having had one of my best friends (Tiger!) move away for college, I am familiar with this. My advice to you is actually not to make unusual efforts to visit each other, since even if you do, there's still a very high probability you'll grow apart over time. ___ ~ Ogordemir ~ "The sciences have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age." ~ H.P Lovecraft, The Call of Cthulhu |

| Level: 49 Liberal Arts Major | I'm great moral support! ___ ~ Ogordemir ~ "The sciences have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age." ~ H.P Lovecraft, The Call of Cthulhu |

| Level: 43 Editor | Fuck, man. You're probably right but that's still exactly the thing I didn't want to hear. --- "You're childish. What are you getting? Are you getting strawberry? Ha! That's such a childish flavor, only children eat strawberry." |

| Level: 49 Liberal Arts Major | Better to hear it now than to figure it out when he gets married and you're not even in the wedding party. ___ ~ Ogordemir ~ "The sciences have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age." ~ H.P Lovecraft, The Call of Cthulhu |

| Level: 49 Liberal Arts Major | Is it really even possible with the internet? Keep in touch via e-mail, or facebook or something. <-> "What the fuck is Alice doing in Wonderland anyway?

| Level: 49 Liberal Arts Major | Well, I can share a success story to go with my failure story. I had a friend in kindergarten who moved away in first grade. I knew her for about a year. We became pen pals and have remained pen pals since, exchanging 2-4 letters a year. In the past year we've seen each other three times (since she recently moved to Arizona from Minnesota) and our friendship has never been stronger.

| Level: 49 Liberal Arts Major | Well, I'm not really in a position to offer any credible advice at all so you can just ignore me, but I think somewhere between Ogor and Kodan sounds about right here. It's a lot easier to keep in touch with the internet but I don't know if that'd be quite the same. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |

| Level: 49 Liberal Arts Major | I've lost so many internet friends over the years it's ridiculous :( Scorp, and another person I have on AIM are the only ones still around that I've known longer than 5 years. <-> "What the fuck is Alice doing in Wonderland anyway?

| Level: 49 Liberal Arts Major | ...Well. Not including you guys I guess? Wow. I sound like an asshole. I guess I should say people I've talked to personally on instant messengers. <-> "What the fuck is Alice doing in Wonderland anyway?

| Level: 49 Liberal Arts Major | The internet is a relatively poor way to keep in touch, in my experience. It's too impersonal. ___ ~ Ogordemir ~ "The sciences have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age." ~ H.P Lovecraft, The Call of Cthulhu |

| Level: 43 Editor | I appreciate the advice, I really do, but honestly I wasn't looking for it. It's just... man. You spend like every waking minute of your life for the last few months with someone and then suddenly they're just gone. I needed to vent about it somewhere. --- "You're childish.

| Level: 49 Liberal Arts Major | It's unpleasant. ___ ~ Ogordemir ~ "The sciences have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age." ~ H.P Lovecraft, The Call of Cthulhu |
