Have you ever lost a best friend?

Hi Andrew, Yes, of course. I lost my best friends as I grow up. We just grew apart I think and things are different already. They just stopped talking to me and I think that it is not right for me to keep on dragging their tail. I have better things to do than that.

i lost a best friend in my life and i felt completely lonely , like i keep thinking about all the memories we shared but i understand your situation and it can be hard to lose a best friend if you was really close to that person.

Yes, I have lost friends during my life and I am sure everyone does. I have also refound old friend. I think that we all change during our life and if the friend does not change the same direction, then we will seperate and new people enter our life instead. -

Yes, I too lost a very dear friend of mine. We both were very close in school time. After 10th grade her father got transferred to another city, but we kept contact through phone, greetings and letters until she got married. After her marriage she never contacted me. I did call her on her old number which was then with her brother. I asked him to give me her new number. I contacted her on that number, but it went unanswered and she didn't even reply me back. Then I found her on orkut and sent her a friend request, which she accepted after a couple of months, but I was happy at least we had a word although it was after 5 years. After a short while her account got deleted. Then I contacted her on FB, but she didn't accept my friend request and I could never find her on FB again. She did mention she had some problem, while we were chatting on orkut, but she did not mention it. I did find very close and caring friends in my life after she left and I am glad we are all still in contact and meet each other, but it is always painful to think about her. We were really close in school, she could have told me her problem. I really wish may life bring us face to face someday so that I can ask her what made her do this to me? Why couldn't she tell me her problems? Why she lost trust in me? There are so many Whys that I need an explanation for...

Yes I have lost a lot of friends in my life but I've also gained a lot of new ones. What I've basically learned is some people are in your life for a lifetime and others are just in your life for a season. The lifetime friends you might not talk to everyday but whenever you do talk it's like no time has passed at all. The seasonal people come into your life at different periods in your life and then they're gone. Sometimes I'll sit back and wonder what happened to a particular person who I hung out with everyday for years and then it just stopped. No arguments or fall outs. They're season was over. A lot of times your friends also depend on your interests. When I was into partying my friends partied too. Now that I don't, I have an altogether different group of friends who enjoy what I enjoy.

Hi, I have moved house way to many times in the past. I have found some of my friends from the past via Facebook. Then again there are some people I do not want to talk to. I find that it is not easy to lose and make friends. I think for me it is easier to say good-bye than hello.\

I have lost some of my best friends. One best friend that I was very close with left the place to another place for the job.

I have lost many people I treated as my best friends. They have changed when they met new people. They left me alone. Now I don't treat people as my best friend because I am afraid they will leave me like the people I treat as my best friend but there are people around me now who are still there when ever I need them which are my close friends.

Hey Andrew. :) Yes, I have lost a few best friends in my life similar to your situation. For example, I lost one when we started to not hang out anymore and we feel more distant from each other and I lost another two years later, when he changed class and started to mix with the bad boys. From then, I started to realize that friends will continuously come and go as we go through life. But you will also continuously make new ones and maybe you'll meet the right friend that will stick with you for a lifetime. For the moment, just be yourself and live life the way you want it to be. :)

I was into the same situation, I lost my best friend who doomed in water.
