Moving on and dealing with it

India

For last two years I have experienced something I would call 'Distances' in friendship. I don't know, but after I had finished my graduation in 2009, all my friends have moved on, most being my college mates. Most of college friends got new jobs, some into serious relationship...and myself I had to continue my masters. So after every semester I visit my country, all my friends have scattered and moved on. So I was like, what the----I was quite lonely thinking that now my college friends have their new colleagues, coworkers or some new people as their friends. I am quite sad about this fact. I am still in India pursuing my masters and I don't feel like going home. All I am thinking is TO MOVE ON and live my own life. Tell me, have you felt this way before?

Unfortunately, I think this is the norm. They say friends are forever, but I think that they actually come and go. You'll rarely find someone who will stay in you life forever. With the exception family. If your families like mine, you don't see or speak to them often either. Life is just to busy. I hope that you find someone where you are that you want to spend your life with. This will make your time out of the country seem better. GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR MASTERS

So many times. You never know. Like The person I was best friend with few years back, is just like any other acquaintance. Friends are like out of sight, out of mind; most of the times. The only ones who stays, does matter. In the end I am here left with beautiful memories of our mischievous acts, dreams and doings. We all gotta eventually move on..

That is what's happening to me now...best friends are more like acquaintances or just like any other regular people you just say hi/bye. Yes, eventually we are left with beautiful memories of our mischievous acts..... Moving on is a only the last hope left!!!! thanks....there, that helped!

Yes, and I totally understand what you feel and went through. Its really tough to deal with it when you just see yourself like being alone. Its good thing at some point that we meet people who share same sentiment as we do. Things drastically change and somehow, I think it is essential as well to reach to them. And yes, we have to move on and start building our own circle. Have fun though, get engaged or simply have fun with the studies and career. Good luck !

My problem is I like to reach them..I don't know why but I don't like being alone and I can't stand that...so I like to reach out to them. Anyways, thanks I needed to discuss about how people would react to this kind of situation. Anyways, discussing this helped! Happy mylotting!
