After graduating high school many people tell you that things will change, and boy are they right.
Once you start high school, you have about 10 to 15 friends. You all just came from the same middle school and know each other really well. As time goes on, those 10 to 15 people becomes about six or seven which then turns to three or five.
Point is, you might end up with one or two true friends at the end of your high school career. Then college comes and people go their separate ways, and that's what happened to me and a few close friends.
At the end of the day, I understand. You go off to college and you make new friends. You may even be hours away. Therefore, if you go off to college and you forget about me, that's not a problem.
If you wanted to be friends with me and talk to me more often, you would message me. It's ok to grow up and move on. I'm ok.
This doesn't mean that we won't be friends anymore. In fact, we could still be friends, we just won't be best friends.
There comes a point in life when you have to realize that people grow apart. They end up wanting different things and that's okay.
You don't need to feel like your tied or forced to talk to me just because we were really close back then. Things happen, life gets hectic and people sometimes change and that should be ok. It should be something that we all accept at one point or another.
Growing up can mean many different things. It means you have to mature, take care of yourself and figure out where you want to go in life. As you grow older many friends start becoming more distant and that is ok.
