hey i'm a 16 year-old guy and lately my best friend and i have been kind of drifting apart. we met through a common friend last april, so it's been a year that we've known each other. the thing is, she lives in florida and i live in new york, and we've never met each other in real life, however we have talked on the phone a lot, and used to talk online every single day. we were close instantly, and were very open with each other and could talk about anything. basically i love her. as a friend that is. and during most of the time i've known her, she's been single, except for a week back in october, which didnt work out too well lol. but near the end of january she started dating a guy and ever since then we've been talking less and less. it's gotten to the point now where we talk AT MOST once a week texting each other, and we havent talked on the phone since i broke up with my girlfriend just after new years, and we havent talked online in at least a month. it's like her bf has completely taken over her life (as well as her job, but thats a minor issue as far as this goes), as her friends that i've become friends with all say that she never really hangs out with them anymore. she is my favorite person in the entire world and i have cried over the fact that i feel like shes going to be gone out of my life forever, possibly soon. can anyone please give me any advice at all? thanks a lot.
Well if she is busy, or with a guy who doesn't let her online much, not much you can do but wait for some answers. Wish I could be more helpful, sorry.
If she's really into this guy, then he will become her best friend. And as so, he is probably filling the void that not talking to you would normally create.
Friends sometimes grow apart, but that's life and there's little you can do to change it. However, once you are in a serious relationship, you too will learn how easy it is for your love interest to be your best friend.
yea i get whatcha mean. like im definitely happy for her and everything that she found someone who cares about her a lot, i just wish that she would realize that i care about her just as much as he does.
I have a girlfriend that I only hear from when she is between boyfriends. We were real close as coworkers years ago but only email now. It is difficult to keep a relationship long distance.
It would be more fulfilling if you met friends in real life.
Online friends are a dime a dozen - they come and go.
Real life friends can REALLY be there for you and you can REALLY be there for them.
I have online friends, so I'm not bashing it.
I really enjoy my online friends.
Mingle, have conversation, be supportive, enjoy yourself with online friends -
just try not to consume your life around a stranger.
Well that is cool im 14 and live in Florida how cool. But well what i would say is that either she really loves this guy. And she has practically devoted her life to him. I dont think what she is doing to you is really fair. Cause with my last bf cause im single now kinda I used to talk to my best friend i met on myspace he lives in Tx and he comes to FL every now and again and im gonna meet him in a few months. But that outta the subject. But what i think is that she wants to spend as much time with him as possible.
yeah we'd been talking about her coming up to rochester on a road trip with another of her friends that im good friends with sometime in the summer, and i was planning on going down to fort myers next spring break or somethin' like that.
but on a different note, how can you devote your whole life to a guy when your only in 10th GRADE.
