Id known my friend for almost three years.

We became best friends really quickly as we just….Idk, gelled I guess. We became so close to the point where we told each other EVERYTHING (dreams, ambitions, who we liked, what scared us, etc). I felt warm and safe when I was around him and when we hugged it felt special and, although this may sound sad, magical. We had a real strong bond. Everything was great between us. Then he announced he was going away. I was broken. In pieces. It sounds over-dramatic but he really does mean the world to me and I never thought we’d have to be apart. He told me he and his family (Mum, Dad, brother, sister) were moving over abroad to be with the rest of their family. He seemed excited at the thought of it and I really didn’t want to bring him down by crying or anything. On his last day, we spent it together. We both cried and told each other we’d miss each other loads. We hugged for what was ages, but seemed like a matter of seconds. The next day he went to his new life. Now, I feel empty. I do have other friends, really close friends but none as close as him. I miss everything - our banter, his smiles, his laugh, his hugs. I miss him so so much. Since he’s been gone, we’ve shared one phone call (about 10 minutes long) and thats it. He promised he would ring as often as he could and I know that won’t be so often. I cant help but cry as I think of him. Every single sad-song or song about losing someone makes me cry. I guess you will think Im sad and need to geet over it but this is how I am atm. Is there any real way to get over this?
I dunno if I really need an answer to that - maybe I just needed this out of my head.
Please answer if you can.
Thanks xx

You will get over it, you just need time to come to terms with it and get used to the idea that he won’t be there all the time. Maybe instead of letting him call you, you could make the effort to call him sometimes?

There is always the computer, do you guys ever chat? Or you could play games online with each other, with what is available now a days there has to be a way to still have some connection with him even though he is far.

I know I will get over it as time goes on, but its just so hard now and I just can’t seem think of anything else but this at the moment. I can only ring him every now and again due to the cost of the call (parents’ rules, not my choice). Yeah, we can talk online and we should be doing as soon as his computer is set up again and his broadband is back activated. I think Ill just try and keep myself occupied and do other things and just, joeboxers32 said, be happy of the time we had together, then Ill just look forward to chatting to/with him.
Thank you for the answer - much appreciated =]
