Friends growing apart?

84% Normal
7 Comments

So I'm in high school and so is the friend in question. We used to be inseparable and now it like we hardly ever even talk and when we do it feels awkward as I don't know what to say and neither does he. It feels as though our friendship is slowly disintegrating. Has this happened to anyone else. :(

Let me clarify. I know this sounds real cheesy but I seriously do want ideas of how to revive the friendship.

    yep thats normal. i dont see anyone from high school because we just dont have anything in common anymore. i tried catching up with old buddies but i realised their priorities were drinking and being idiots and thats not my thing anymore. you will make new friends and lose old ones all through life.

    You started your first sentence with the word "so" .....So, it's very likely you're ....very young. as are most your commentators. talk to the person you're wondering about - then move on

    Yep its all part of growing up you get new best friends your partner your kids and they take up all of your time.

    Still it is nice to meet up with old friends once i a while.

    I used to be friends with this guy I knew from when we were both 8 years old and were neighbors, then when I was 13 my family moved away but I could still visit him because his house was only a 15 minute car ride away. During high school we were friends too even though we went to different high schools. But after high school we definitely grew apart, he moved to a different state for college while I stayed in the same state, and he just wasn't interested in hanging out with me anymore.

    I've seen this movie.... wait, let me think....
    One or the other of you goes from being a nerd to being accepted into the popular set, right? The now cool one forgets all his nerd friends and even gets laid by the head cheerleader, right?
    And then, oh but of course, you know the story because you are living it, right?
