If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense.
Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't.


Alright, so this past week has been hell, and this upcoming week will be, too. But the week after this one is going to be one of the hardest of my Life. >_<

My best friend and ex, whom I still love, is moving away to Texas. We're in Jacksonville, Florida right now. Sunday night, he picked me up from my Dad's to take me home and told me. Funny thing is, he said he had to talk to me before he got me, and I got a feeling he was gonna say he was moving - I just thought he was going back home to Alabama. Not to TEXAS. Anyways, Monday - slept almost all day. Tuesday, my mom drops me off at his house so I can spend the day with them, and Tuesday was great. Riding around with Shane and Dillan, the man I love and our mutual best friend, nothing beats that. I get home Tuesday and I can't sleep, so Wednesday and Thursday I busy myself. Clean, schoolwork (home schooled), IM other people, anything I can to distract myself. But at night I always ended up getting 3 hours of sleep at the most and crying or watching anime all the other time that I was awake and couldn't sleep. Yesterday, Friday, I get a call at 10 30 from Shane on Dillan's phone - "Hey! Get ready to go, we'll be there in 10 minutes!"
"...What?"
*click*
-_-
Five minutes later as I'm brushing my teeth, my door opens.
>_<
We run by get breakfast, and while they do the yard sale, I babysit Shane's four year old sister, who I adore and she absoltely loves me. She started crying when I had to leave. She asked me to move to Texas with them. This four year old precious little girl, who's the sister of the man I've loved for almost two years. So I go home, pass out cause watching her all day wore me out (got paid $15 though for it, which is more than Shane gets paid. XD rofl I didn't wanna take it but they made me >_< I love the girl so much I'll watch her for free whenever). Anyways. Mother drops me off again this morning, Saturday, to watch her while they do the yard sale again. I stay until 10. And while his sister's getting ready for bed, when she tells me good night, she says, "I really do wuvs you, Ashy."
.......Like, seriously?!
I tell his step dad good night, cause he's leaving a week early tomorrow morning to make sure everything's set up for them.
Tomorrow afternoon, father's droppinng me off there again and I'll go home later tomorrow night....and I already know I'm gonna be there again next Tuesday and Friday, if not all week, hopefully.
And Tuesday's just supposed to be our day. Just Shane and I, no Dillan, no sister, no mom, or anything. Just us. We've been together this whole time, holfing each other, kissing each other, just making sure the other's there for dear Life. Neither of us want to let this go, but we've only got a week left and we're gonna most the most of it as mich as we can.
The only thing is, he's the only person who's ever always been able to get me out when I need to leave to go somewhere or something. He's my best friend, and I'm not gonna have him to hold onto when things get rough anymore - not his hugs, not him buying me Cokes, not sitting with him when he has a smoke, not him kissing my forhead and telling me it'll all be alright, he's right there with me. All I'm gonna ahve is his messages and his phone calls and his poems he wrote for me forever ago. I'm trying to not let the reality of it all hit me until it actually happens in a week, but with him holding me and knowing it'll be gone soon; with his sister asking me to move with them; with her telling me she loves me and giving me hugs and kisses good night, it's really hard not to yet. He's my best friend and my personal escape, and Idk what I'm gonna do without him here.

I know this all seems whiny and extreme, but I'm sure everyone knows what it's like to lose someone you love; a best friend,; someone who's always there when you need them. I'm sure all of you can relate in SOME way, and I've never had anything this big happen to me before, so I'm not wuite sure how to cope with it all so suddenly. I got a two week notice and the first week has gone by in a matter of what seems like two or three days. It's allhappening too fast!! They're gonna be gone too soon and there's nothing I can do about it.

Anyways, just needed to get it all out...he does turn 18 soon, and he said he might come back, but he's not sure if he'll be able to yet or not. If he doesn't and he's still down there in November when I turn 18 myself, my parents are supposed to by me a plane ticket as mu present to fly me down there for my birthday, and he's gonna pick me up and take me to the Wonderland Amusement Park in Amarillo. I know it's not like I'm never gonna see him again; I'm going to, no matter what! It's just hard going through something this major since I never have had to before and it's all coming on so quickly. I mean, only two weeks, and I'm probably only seeing them a total of five or six days out of the fourteen., for sure. Hopefully more, but that's debatable....=/

Idk, if you respond please don't be negative about it. I feel terrible as it is, and I don't need negative comments making it any worse. I honestly don't care if anyone responds or not - I just needed to vent and get it out and I'm glad I have these places to do so.

Aw, I don't think anything I say could really help, but I did read it all, and I hope you feel happier soon; I understand that it can be very difficult when things like this happen.

Hm..Going through something simmilar to this myself at the minute, though at the same time something entriely diffrent..I'll say this much.

It IS hard..And you'll find for a while that NOTHING will help.

If you're anything like me. (which for your own sake I hope not, but unfortunately the world doesn't work like that :/ ) You'll find yourself lost for a while, you'll spend alot of time staring into blank space and dwelling on things if you don't try to keep yourself active.

Try to keep venting on people, because given time and kind words it helps alleviate the stress and sence of loss.

Talk to him via the internet as much as possible, if it's possible at all and write a letter once a week, even if he never gets to read it..it's still another way to release built up emotion. (and trust me you need to get rid of it somewhere or you'll explode)

Dispite your feelings now, time does heal all wounds, it won't get better, or hurt less, but you'll learn to deal with it and handle the pain without second thought. At first the weeks will seem like a seven day eternity, you'll count each hour.. Just give it some time, be patient and find people you can lean on when you need that extra bit of support and you'll be fine Alice.

Awe Honey, it'll be alright.
Tough, yes.
But things will work out.

My best friend (Dessy/Cat of Spades) is moving up to Pennsylvania for next school year. I've known for...a couple months I think (can't even remember when she decided sweatdrop ) and it still hasn't sunk in for me. Even with planning/putting together her going away party. Granted, she'll be here until May, but...

But really, it will be ok.
I promise.
Just keep your chin up, don't be afraid to cry ('cause there's nothing wrong with that), and know that you do have friends that will be there for you. Not all of us can hug you when you need to be hugged, but listening to you when you just need to talk, making you laugh, and taking your mind off of things when we can - that's what friends are for.
Stay strong girl.
We're here for ya.

*~*~*
*agrees with Hattress*

Deary, things will be okay. Things will hurt for a while, I won't tell you they will be all peaches and strawberry custard. But you will learn to adapt.

I've had to let go of some very strong bonds in the past. A guy that taught me how to live, how to laugh, and how to have fun - we were dating and then he broke it off. We still loved each other - and it hurt like hell. We talked, but we stopped hanging out to give us both a chance to get over the other. IT took a long time, but we stayed close friends. We shared everything over the internet and phone. After the romance and the love passed, what remained was a close bond of friendship that can't ever be broken. I still keep him, and our memories together, and the things he taught me close to my heart. I will always have fond memories rather than of a breaking apart relationship.

I know you may not want to hear this but maybe its in "the plan" for him to move away. Distance in a strong, resiliant love can only strengthen those bonds. He will never stop being your best friend. And nothing can change the fact that he has always been there for you (and your first love?)

As a side note: My boyfriend and I have been best friends for 4 years, but he lives in another state. 1000 miles away. We have been dating for 5 months now, and I've never been so happy. His emails, and IM's and phone conversations are no less sweet and caring for all the distance. If you can adapt to the distance, a long distance relationship isn't horrible. Especially since you are both growing up, and can eventually pay for plane tickets etc. TX isn't THAT far - just over the gulf. =]

And like hattress said. Many in this guild have been through similar things - Hattressand I especially. We'll be here to lend advice and a kind word whenever you need one. =] We are your friends.

Awe, honey, I send you an incredibly large hug. I had something similar to what you're going through happen to me. The only difference was his parents didn't like me which in the end was the reason we broke up, not the distance. You will always have him there as long as you both need the other. Long distance relationships are doable and the fact that he hasn't mentioned breaking up to save you from the distance relationship only means that you'll last long enough to perhaps see each other on vacations through the time that you can't move closer together.

My boyfriend as of now also had something similar happen to him. He dated this one girl for two years, all the time knowing that he had to move from Israel to Canada (where I live). He didn't date anyone for four years after that. Sure, he did date one other person whom he barely even remembers because he found her nowhere near as perfect as that girl back in Israel but now, finally, after eight years of missing her him and I started dating.

It took him ten months but now he finds that he can love someone else as well. You never forget your first true love, he will always be your rock and stone whome you can hold onto. E-mail him whenever you need to and I am sure that he will cling onto them as much as you will. Good-luck!

@Dear Lady Azure:: It's fine. Thanks. ^_^;; I'm sure I will. I just need to.....adjust. >_< Which is gonna be hard, but I've got no other option. I'm gonna try to get out more with people from our old school like during Spring Break or whatever, just to take my mind of it when I have the chance. And btw, why did you say you weren't doing too great, either? =/ I hope you're okay. >_< And that you're a stronger girl than I. lol

@Underdog:: I'm sorry you're going through something, too. =/ Seems like everyone is these days. And I figure it'd be a while before anything can help. >_< Which I really am not looking forward to. >_> I'm definitely gonna talk to him whenever I get the chance, and my mom's encouraging the letter idea, too, so I'll definitely take that advice as well. Thank you so much. : )

@Hattress:: I'm sorry! I take it that's why she was asking about the Alice themed party earlier this week? =/ I'm glad you still have time with her, though! : ) Make that party amazing for her! I'm definitely not afraid to cry. x.x rofl I've been a total baby this whole week when I've been at home. When I'm actually with them, I thought it'd be harder, but it's so much easier cause I'm actually WITH them. I guess that makes sense. And thanks for the support. : ) I honestly appreciate it a lot.

@Cat:: I know he's moving away for a reason. >_< Ma and I have already discussed that. As much as I understand all the logic involved in it, I've just never had this huge of an experience so I'm like, "Wtfffff do I dooooooooo? >_<" lol And I'm glad for you and your boyfriend. : ) Congrats! ^_^ lol And I still wear a necklace he gave me when we were first together in August of 08. He's still my best friend AND yes, first love, no matter what. Ha. I lent him $20 to buy us daitos so he could teach me to sword fight, but he spent it on food. ^_^;; So he said when he got there and got a job, he'd buy me a few things from BudK to make up for it. rofl Thanks . ^_^

@GORE:: Aww, thank you! Haha I'm sorry the past one didn't work out cause of parents. =/ I hate when that happens to friends of mine. >_< As long as the kid's happy and safe, the parents shouldn't have a say, in my personal opinion. Either wayy.....I'm glad that you're happy now! And that your boyfriend as of right now is happy with you. : ) I'm probably gonna pretty much not date for a long while, like him. lol Just cause I wouldn't feel right being with someone else when I'm still so wrapped up with Shane. Thanks for the encouragement. ^_^ His mom said if he can't MOVE back up here after he's 18, we can at least see if he can come back here for the summer for a while and stay with someone if they can house him. Which I'm glad for. She's supposed to bring it back up to him today shortly after I get there. He already said he'd call me when they got down there and settled after they leave to let me know he and his family are there safe and so I can talk to his sister for a few minutes and make sure his mom and step-dad have everything settled.

Thanks to all of you. You're all wonderful, and thank you ever, ever so much. Idk how active I'll be next week, since I'll probably still be in shock. x.x Buuuuttt I might be on a lot to distract myself, and if not, then you all know why. >_< But you are all amazing. ^_^ Thank you!! So, so much. : )

Sweetie, I'm sorry to hear that he's moving. *hugs*


Just a few years ago I lived in New Jersey, my mom told the family we were going on a vacation to Tennessee and when we got halfway here, my mom told me that we were never coming back.

I was in the middle of of sophomore year of high school. It was devastating.
It got better though, as time went on. Just like everyone says. My best friends are still my best friends, even though we hardly ever talk to each other anymore(life gets in the way too much sometimes).
When my friends call me now, I drop everything to talk. lol
Just make sure to always make time for each other. Keep in contact.


I know it was the same advice everyone else gave you, just know that we're all here for you. ^_^

It's alright....the 27th marked exactly two months since he moved, but in a couple of days I'm flying out there to live with him and his family for five weeks. : ) So it all worked out well, I think. And he's doing LabourReady where you work day-to-day if they have jobs available for you, and if you do really well, you get a Weekly Ticket where you end up working every day. Hopefully he'll get the ticket so he can work ever day, and then he'll have a steady job to save up money for a license, car, and to get back to Jacksonville in a couple of months.....to come back home. ♥

I never thought I would end up moving to PA and yet here I am,
enjoying the lush mountains, the best job luck I've ever had, and in the company of the love of my life ^.^

funny how life works. >.<

<3 you Alice. Glad you are doing so much better.
