Are there any old friends that you miss?
What was the reason that you are no longer friends with them?
I miss two of my old best friends.
The first one I was best friends with since 2nd Grade. Then in high school her and another group of my friends decided they wanted to move up the social ladder so dumped me. We made up kind of a couple years later, but never were like we used to be. We still send Christmas cards now, but never see each other, even though we live in the same town now.
Other one was my best friend from Senior Year. We moved in together after high school and that just ruined our friendship. When she moved out we tried to keep our friendship, but again it just wasn't the same.

There are definitely old friends that I miss very much and wish that I had continued to keep in touch with them or vice versa but they are married now and do not have time or interest in being friends still. I know they are doing well but I sure would love to get back in touch with them but just as friends. They were my best friends back in high school.

I miss my old friend Tami. We were best friends for many years. We spent a lot of time together. My mother and step-father didn't like our friendship. Our friendship endured despite their wishes.
Sadly, we grew apart. She moved away. I wrote her several letters, she occasionally would respond. Then the letters once again stopped. I know her brother's address, I found it on the net. I am going to contact him to get her address. It is not that I am hoping to restart the friendship we once had, I just want to know how she is doing.

There are plenty of old friends that I miss. Some, meaning most of them I did not know that long because we moved, I thought were my friends and they never kept in touch. I tried to keep in touch with some of my friends from middle school, when I was in 6th grade, but they just never called back or did not remember who I was!
Now, I have had some really great friends in Florida that I miss, and we still keep in touch! Its great. :D

I have a few old friends that I have lost track of and have been thinking about recently. I lost touch with most of them when I moved to another state when I was 12. We tried to keep in touch by writting, but after a while life took over and the letters stopped. I still keep in touch with a few friends from High School, however we hang in different circles and very rarely see eachother now.

I had a friend from 5th grade through the end of high school and beyond. Then I moved to Atlanta and she stayed in New England. I tried to keep in touch with her, but her letters were further and further apart. Calling long distance was very expensive for both of us, so that was not an option. The closeness we shared was lost. A few years later, about 15 actually, I visited and we got together and it was very strained, very uncomfortable. I never heard from her since. It is a shame, but we grew in different ways. I take my friendships now just as seriously but I understand that people are in your life for a finite time, and when that time is done, you can't force the friendship to thrive.

I found my best friend after high school, but she was the best. Eventually, her and her husband moved a couple states away and one thing led to another, we got in a fight and didn't talk for over a year. I missed her so much and tried to patch things up, but things have never been the same since!
