Maybe you should try talking to your friend to find out whats going on.
I moved away 5 years ago from what I thought were my best friends.
Needless to say they don't call me. Except one very special one. And her mom has cancer right now and they don't expect her to make it another 3 weeks.
Her bf is in the hospital. But she was there for me when my mom died a year and a half ago. We have a special bond that when anything major happens we are there for each other. I love her like a sister.
You never know this may make your friendship stronger. If it was meant to be it will turn out for the best. I wish you all the best. I know how hard it is to be on the losing end. You feel like your all alone in the world. You want the world to stop but it just keeps going. But if I were you talk to your friend. She could feel the same way. You won't know till you talk to her. Your in my thoughts and prayers.

Mandee, I'm so sorry. I remember when my "best friend" moved away (I cried too so you aren't alone in that). You're right, it probably won't be exactly the same, but you'll make new friends and hopefully remain in contact with your friend who has moved. Even though it won't be the same as it is now, you never know, it could actually be better... Life can be surprising like that...

I am sorry your friend "surprised" you like that, yes she should have told you about her plans since she is your best friend, imo, best friends do share everything, specially when she is involved in your business.
I agree, it's not the same when one moves, but you will meet other people, and make new friends. When one door closes, a new one opens.

Mandee, I know how you are feeling only my best friend didn't move. As a matter of fact, she lives less than 5 miles from me. She just became a recluse except for her family. I miss her so much and I need her more than she'll ever know. My marriage sucks too and now mom is in failing health. I have other friends now and you'll be able to do that to.

Two out of my 3 best friends are moving, we just shut down our Women's Center,
and being retired you do lose a lot of peole you thought were friends. It's very hard, but good friendships know no distance.

My dearest friend is my Aunt. I can't even keep track of this wonderful 85 year old woman. Sometimes she's in Florida, sometimes Maryland, sometimes upstate NY.
She's always in my heart though and I'm always in hers. When something happens in one of our lives, the other will know and there's always a phone call.

I hope this is what ends up happening with your friend.
