Relationships evolve, and so do we as people- if we have evolved beyond what we sought to be and focus on during that important time, it is not to be shallow toward that experience, it is to be reverent toward it, that it helped us to grow beyond where we were when we entered that time. We've 'graduated'.
Some of my best friends growing up will always be in my heart. Always.
They are suspended there in my 10 year old girl, 15 year old girl, 22 year old girl memories. They are a part of me.

Sometimes this happens in love relationships too.. marriages and long relationships are tough...the synastry of unions must be nurtured. The other things that make up our psyche must be nurtured.... nothing is static. Lessons sometimes sting, but if we can move with the river of life, all of us- all of our components, and theirs, as things change, you can continually evolve together and be new and wonderful people relating always.


Very eloquently said.

Here is an old song (1955) from our Indian film. On how ppl meet and depart leaving us to bear the sorrow when lonely. I know most of us here will not understand the language but i thought since music has no boundries it can be enjoyed anyway.......The first is in a light mood, in the initial part of the movie when they meet and are going in their different ways. And the later when they have fallen in love and are to part. (If i remember correctly, its been ages since i saw the movie). Correct me pl if i am wrong.

Someone once said, "When the Universe closes one door,it opens another."

This is true even though any sort of loss is painful

BINGO! This is so true and I see this in some of my friendships. No time is invested and it seems like the friends drop off the face of this earth. I have been the type who has always kept in touch.

I just said GOODBYE to friends that I have known for almost 20 years. They don't have any time for me and when I phone they would get extremely angry at the distraction. I thought they were good friends.

Time to move, let go and live my life.

I think if you look at Death as the ultimate loss,it helps when you lose friends.
We can't hang on to anything ,really,not even the greatest and most perfect love

Overly-social people stay very light-hearted and don't throw down roots; I would gather this is a reflection of their motivations, and maybe emotional depth.

It sounds like you want something more long-lasting, Starfox... so, why waste your time on flighty types? They're not so hard to pick out... just look at their other relationships.

Not to say that flighty people don't have nice qualities - only that you should sort of not put too much into them... as they will likely not understand the kind of pain they will cause when they leave, again and again.

Personally, I don't make "quick friends" anymore. I look for those who are likely to value a friendship with me, and those who I have something in common with... I also check for certain traits that are really undesirable - like superficiality.


Feeling the pain currently, I totally agree with this... but it's hard to see that shallowness if it's hidden...
