Despite the fact all of us gain a lot of friends, most of us lose a lot of friends over time, willingly or not. Are there any friends you want back?

After I moved countries I didn't really keep in touch with anyone. I missed my friend Jared a lot, but then I realized he'd changed when I actually -did- get in touch with him and found out that with our different personalities now, we wouldn't be good friends anymore. It was heartbreaking

I've moved a lot, so I know what it's like to lose friends. Sometimes it's for the best, though, especially if you grow apart and meet new people. A lot of my friends want to keep in touch with me, but I just can't find the time to get together, especially since most live so far away. :(

I know the feeling.. I've moved around a bit and the people in my new area I'd call friends most of them live an hour away and we've both got our separate schedules so it's really hard to find the time to have proper friends time. :(

With different surroundings and interests even the school friends in the same city are difficult to stay in touch with,then if the separation is overseas the interests are bound to be varient and there is always the problem of being unable to see each other.Under those conditions I guess new friends provide the much needed comfort,provided one is open to the inevitable changes.

I met a girl friend of mine again that I hadnt seen in a few years, and she was completley different I was really upset but I think that she thought I was quite different myself.

you are actually right. even as i keep on moving from one place to other and made many friends , still i see that when i try to get in contact with my friends of the old place, they treat me completely as a starnger. and thats really bad

hey baggybean...i totally understand how u feel..i had this great friend i met thru a newsletter. we used to write letters without fail, and of course we'd email n talk on the phone also.but with him the fun was in writing letters to each other. in a week we'd exchanged at least 2-3 letters of 3-4pages or more.we met few times too. bt because of some misunderstanding.... we lost contact, now after 5yrs, i really want to get back in touch with him... i miss my friend so much, he was like my big bro, always there to advise me in times of need.i tried mailing him, hoping his mail add is stil valid, im just waiting till he replies... god knows if ever he will????

It's not easy to keep all your friends since school!! Nothing is the same after that... but you have to choose who are the best one to keep in touch! I kept a lot of friends who are not in the country but when they are in holidays and come back they will never forget to tell it to me and that's very nice!!
I have my best friend since school too and she's the only one i know i will keep for all my life!!
