I’m in my first month of college right now, but I’m missing my best friend from high school like crazy.

We had a complicated relationship, but when it boiled down, we were just best friends. She’s in Michigan, and I’m in Illinois. She surprise visited me on my birthday, and also came down another week before she had to start college (I’m in football, so I had to leave early). I’ve tried making new girls for friends, but none seem to connect with me, and I always think of her when I’m around other girls. We have skyped and talked over the phone about 3 times a week, but I can’t stop thinking of her. I don’t know how she feels though. Lately on the phone, she always abruptly says “Here can I call you back” and like calls back in like an hour. I’m scared that she doesn’t want our friendship to last as much as I do? What should I do? I’m pretty miserable…

Have you told her exactly how you feel? That you don’t want to lose her friendship? I think she might have been waiting for you to take that friendship to the next level and you just did not see the signs and maybe she resigned herself and wants to move on. Have you spoken to her about this?

Yeah, I always tell her that this relationship is going to last even after we’re out of college. I am the one who had a major crush on her, and told her, but she didn’t feel the same way. I used to be a extremely shy kid, and she kinda helped me break out of my shell. And this summer we talked about us maybe dating, and we both agreed that we really should have, and we kinda were screwed up because of the timing (we just became friends senior year). And we are both like super jealous people when each other hangs out and talks to other people. She always says our relationship is like we were dating like emotionally, but not physically. She also made me promised to her that if we both are single after our sophomore year that I had to take her out on a date.
