When a friend moves away it's sad, when a good friend moves away it takes some time to heal. But when your best friend who is family to you move halfway across the country, it's a feeling you can’t describe. The hurt and the loneliness that comes with the move is nothing that anyone wants to deal with. My best friend Kaylyn Hooge moved away from Beatrice and away from me June 22nd, 2017. She now lives 17 hours and 24 minutes away from me in the state of Virginia. Me and Kaylyn became good friends at the beginning of 7th grade. We instantly clicked and by the middle of 7th grade we were best friends. I took her to Yellowstone National Park for vacation that summer. As we got older we became closer and closer. She was one of my only true friends at the time. Kaylyn is the best friend that I have ever met. She is there for me in the good times, the bad times, and everything in between. Nothing could separate us come freshman year. I thought that we were gonna be able to graduate together and have the best 4 years of high school together. It was about the middle of the school year, we were on the bus heading to our show choir competition. She was acting a little strange but only I seemed to notice it. I had pulled her to the back of our group as soon as we got off of the bus. I asked “is everything okay?” She responded to me by saying “ My dad might be getting a promotion”. I was happy for her dad and I didn't know why that was making her sad. She then finished what she was saying and it was “but the promotion is back in Virginia”. The smile on my face went away once it sunk in that the promotion would mean that she would be moving. We tried to not think about it anymore that day but never left each others side for a minute. Some time later towards the end of the school year I had forgotten about the promotion. Until she was acting weird in class again. This time she's the one that pulled me aside, she told me that her sisters were telling their best friends so she needed to tell me. I got kinda scared when she said that. The next thing that I heard was “ dad got the promotion, I am moving back to Virginia”. Before I knew what was happening I was crying, everyone in the class was staring at me, but I didn’t
She had been my best friend for a long time, so it was probably a good thing we only saw each other once or twice a month since she moved. That made it a little bit easier.
It was early spring of 2013, and I decided to message a girl who I had heard a lot of amazing things about. Her name was Moriah Ebron, but I learned that she went by Mo instead. She was incredibly kind, and we had a lot in common. As the year went on, we learned more about each other and we wanted to meet in person. It was odd to me, having a best friend who lived so far away, but while her parents were planning a camping trip to Virginia, she was planning a visit to West Virginia. During the middle of fall, Mo started the journey from Delaware to West Virginia. It was early morning and I was at the Kingdom Hall when my friend Shannon, whom Mo was staying with, walked up to me and asked me to go outside with her. Once outside,
But the day she moved I was crying but I had to get over it one day.When she got in the car to leave I gave her a hug and told her that I would miss her but she had to leave.Then she got in the car to go and as they passed i waved at her good by.
I moved away from my friends and town i grew up in. I thought that moving away well decrease my intelleges and well become a bad influence and depressed. I was already depressed since we started packing, but i tried so hard to hangout has much as possible, they even helped me pack things and get back into my house when i was locked out when my parents left without warning. I was also sad because i broke up with my girlfriend because i was moving, she didn't do long-distance relationships, she’d helped me smile and enjoy life, but it change now. All i say to her was bye and couldn't bare remembering but it was hard to forget something beautiful. My friend surprised me and cheered me up a little and then
But I have dealt with the same feelings that Penelope has felt of missing someone dearly. As over the summer, my ex-best friend and I ceased our friendship. Before the summer had started, she and I were as close as we could be. We had sleepovers almost every weekend and went on vacations together.
It was the summer of sixth grade year and I was living in Calumet City, IL. Me, my mom, and my sister were on our way to Burger King, but before we got there my mom had to stop at the bank and get some money. When she turned to the bank’s parking lot, some papers fell and so I picked them up. Since I’m nosey I checked out what the papers were for and once I read the title “Divorce Documents”, I was completely shocked but didn’t show any emotion. Once my mom came back out I didn’t say anything. I thought to myself, “She’ll tell me when she thinks is the right time.” but little did I know that on that day my mom was already planning to tell us about it.
I fell in love with her at the age of six. Her and I were going to be together forever. When the teacher came up to me and told me how perfect we were each other at the bake sale in second grade, I knew. When I went to fairs to sell cell phone cases with my dad and she was always with me, I knew. As we grew older, the closer we got and the more her and I understood each other. At this point, she had turned into a part of me, it was no longer her and I but rather we. Coming to University of Texas at Austin, has admittedly created a strain on our relationship. I was not sure if our relationship should continue, were we really meant for each other? I did not know her, I did not know how we would change the world, but now I do. This is the story
Katelyn has been my best friend since before pre-school. Katelyn and I used to live next to each other. That was endless amounts of fun. Ever since then, we have stayed best friends. Katelyn is my rock when I go into a bad spell. She is the best support I have ever had. Besides all that, she is one of the funnies people I have ever met. We hang out all the time, and there is never a dull moment. I love her to death, and she is my best friend ever.
That’s true, it did suck that she was moving and her last years of high school wouldn’t be at Senior. I also remember wondering if we would still talk. I knew at first we would text each other but I was wondering after she met new friends that she went to school with, if we would still communicate on a regular basis.
My best friend is Erin Bowman. We have been best friends since the 2nd grade! Funny story, when we were in kindergarden, we actually hated each other! We have been friends for around 5 or 6 years now. I used to live in Van Buren, which is where I met Erin. Unfortunately, in the 5h grade, I had to move to greenbrier. I was really really sad, because I thought this meant losing my best friend! When I told her, the first, and only, thing she said to me was; “Sophie.. That’s.. Really sad. But, I’m not worried. If we’ve come this far, there is nothing that can stop us from being friends!”. Now we call each other about everyday and talk! We also play this game called ROBLOX. It’s really fun, and we can play it together! One thing I know for sure
Have you ever had your best friend in the whole world, who is like a sister, move to a whole different state? Well, if you have then you know that the feeling is horrible. It’s very sad and sometimes it can be depressing which makes it hard to deal with. It’s hard to know that Emily and I can’t just do the things we used to do because she is so far away. We can’t just hang out whenever we want to. Emily has always been my sister, by blood or not, it doesn’t matter to me.
Once I discovered she would be moving to Texas, I was concerned that I would lose my best friend. Against all odds, however, our friendship has endured five long years since. Our friendship has stayed strong for seven years ago now. Since meeting, we have gone through a multitude of experiences and have grown extremely close. Surviving Elle’s move has taught me multiple lessons, but the one that looms over all others is that no distance can separate the bonds of true
Moving away from all of your best friends can be a real tragedy in a sixteen-year-old teenagers life. It’s hard to get up and go eight hundred miles away from everyone you know and everything you grew up around. I had this happen to me about three years ago and it is the largest change I have ever had to adjust to in my life. It wasn’t the changes around me that I was bothered by; it was that I did not know one living soul for hundreds of miles and all I wanted was a friend.
Growing up I had a lot of older siblings. However, I only lived with two. The two I lived with were my two older sisters, Renee and Andrea. We became really close despite our age differences [Andrea was 6 and a half years older than me and Renee was 13 years older than me]. Of course we argued like all siblings do but it never lasted long. When I was in between the ages of 7-9 Renee moved out. I was absolutely heartbroken. It felt like my world was going to collapse. Since then Andrea and I argued more than ever. In 2015 Andrea graduated high school and got accepted into Grand Valley State University. I was happy she was moving out because of how often we argued. One day it was one of her normal trips home from college which turned out not so normal. She told us she was dropping out of college to join the Navy! My first thought was "She won't last a week,". I never thought, I don't think anyone thought, that she would ever go through with it. I'm still surprised to this day. Andrea is my Michigan Hero. Now that you know about her background, this is why she is my
Around the age of 10, we started getting very involved with school sports. She lived in Byrdstown and found her gift which was cheering, of course mine was Basketball. As time went on, we only got to see each other at basketball games and special occasions. But, we always knew that we would be best friends forever.
