Now I know how everyone has felt. My best friend here is moving. To Idaho. Now what do I do?
Most of you know I have a hard time making friends. I have one or two real friends from everyplace I've been and that's really it. It's actually all I need. I'm perfectly comfortable just having one or two true friends. I don't have the energy for more. And I don't have the patience for flighty friends. So, here I am. And, this friend isn't even in my ward! She's in the southernmost ward in our stake and I'm in the northernmost.
Is it rare to have found a true friend everywhere I've been? I know lots of women who don't seem to have that. I don't know how they do it. It's pretty critical for me. Will I survive this?
Probably. Is it lousy? For sure.

sounds like me... one or two really good friends where-ever we are. Stinks being on the leaving end (I bawled when I said goodbye to my friend Julie when we left Provo... and avoided saying goodbye to Kristi, which I regret), stinks being on the left end too. Splitting up friendships just stinks.
Maybe you should move this way too so then you'll still be close! I could handle that...
Yuck. I am so sick of good friends moving away. In the 11 years of my married life, I've made about six or so amazing friends that I want to keep in contact with. And of course they have all moved away (or will be moving soon) - and you are one of them, you abandoner!! :) I miss them so much, so I feel you on this one. Sucky, for sure.
