Advice PLease...Am I still their friend?

perfect, a situation everybody faces, but seldom cares... this was happening to me all the way in school, college, etc, friends i leave in one place would completely get lost... But then i realized, each of us is as busy as we are, and then in my last place i left over, from then on i started initiating conversations, i kept on pinging on them whenever i was free, also making sure i m not disturbing them or bugging them....now i still am prety close to them there, whenever i go there they make sure they get some time out for me, etc etc. So it all depends on us, we keep getting new friends, so its obvious we start giving lower preferences to the older freiends because we ve got to give time for the new friends now also right... So just keep going and things ll go fine, Have a nice day

This does not happen to you but all of us. When we work in a company we feel close to some person, something which can't be described, but after leaving that company slowy you will forgot them this is human nature. But Still you want to be in touch with them and do visit them regularly so you can keep your friendship alive.

just accept that it had changed. not being with them physically everyday like you used to just made things between you and your friends change. if they don't pay such attention to you anymore, with you making such a great effort to connect, then stop and move on. real friendship mustn't take much exertion to survive absence, it shouldn't drain you physically and mentally just to know or feel you are buddies. real friendship is just there, it flows continuously, naturally. so don't push it. if they come around, miss you and be the one to contact you later, good. if not, it's still good to know they aren't for real :)

i believe on one thing life must go on . :) u ll get to know new ppl. u ll b frends with them .. only few of them remains for . whole life . n 90% of them are temparary..

It seems our situations match.Donot intorspect much and decide on one thing until you have the proof.They may be busy. Ok!Leave everything.Nothing can be achieved by worrying. You are saying that they are like your sisters.Then ask them directly and epress your feelings.Because if they are really your sisterslike,they donot want to hurt you my dear friend. Donot worry,"True friends are forever" and I hope they are your true friends.

You don't know how much I also hate that feeling of losing someone who you thought was so important to your life. It is even harder nowadays with the internet and things like AIM, Myspace, Facebook, etc, when you can't help but see that someone is online and they don't respond to you. I have often thought that someone was ignoring me and felt like I'd done something wrong, only to hear from them weeks later and find out that all was well, but it does make one wonder how close these friends really are. The thing is, people come and go from our lives for a reason. Sometimes friendships end, and you have to do your best not to be bitter or resentful towards the people you feel have left your life before you were ready. I had a terrible time with this when I was younger. I had a friend, we were so incredibly close and talked every single day online, and we were so close that she sent me this _huge_ box of gifts for Christmas, mostly not new stuff mind you, but stuff that it took me like an hour to open, just having so much fun with it.. I'll never forget that, all of the thought that went into it. And then after about a year she just started to drift out of my life, and it hurt so much that I was bitter for I dont even know how long. In time I finally realized that she was just growing up and moving on with her life, doing things that she needed to do. Time heals all wounds. I haven't missed her in a long time, though I do sometimes wonder how she is doing. But life has provided me with new friends, and new experiences. And that will happen for you, too, if it is what you wish. Just try to feel positive and happy and think about the kinds of people that would love to have in your life. Keep your eyes open and meet new people. Eventually you will find people who will fill the spaces in your life even better than these other women. There is no point in holding onto their friendship if they aren't responding in the way that you need. Easier said than done, I know. But if you bear in mind that everything in life happens for a reason, it really does help. And I really believe it to be true. ^_^

you cant expect business relationships to continue because they are based on your proximity to them and the necessity of getting along

Obvivously u weren't that close like u taught u were. I guess it was just a work relationship nothing more. Did u do things outside the workplace. Shop, birthdays or activites?
