Other people wrote that they just want to see their friend, that they chat online and stuff. I spoke to my best friend for an hour on the phone and saw her for 3 hours, and that was it for a whole year. On the one hand, is she still my friend? But on the other the thought of never seeing her again, of never saying “I love you” and having a great big hug, of just letting this go because we are useless at staying in touch is… unbearable. Maybe I will send her a snail mail. I want her to know I still cherish what we have together and when i am back on her continent we are going to see each other again.
