Sit her down and tell her how you feel. You will be really glad you did. You guys can write and phone each other while she's gone. Good luck.

You should talk to her and tell her about how much you will miss her.... if she is going to broaden her knowledge or for work reasons, you should probably be happy for her that she is doing something with her life that she wants to do.... If she is only going for a year, maybe you could both set up a blog so that it is cheaper to keep in touch with what is going on in both of your lives.
It is really, really sad when this happens - my sister went to live in Spain for 18 months and missed her and my niece so much, but they came back about 6 months ago - it has made our relationship much stronger because we know what it is like to be without each other....
Let your sister know how you feel - she probably feels the same and she might not go....

I think that you should not pretend that you wont miss her, I think you should tell her how you feel but also let her go. im sure this is a decision she has not made lightly. Your life will go on without her and you can write email phone etc. The Best thing you could do is support your sister, bringing out what she loves about you the most.

I happen to live in British Columbia Canada (The west coast ) i think it is one of the most beauifull places on earth,,,,,,( origionaly i came from europe ) so dont fret too much about your sister moving here,,,,,,she will love it just as we do,,,and besides,,,,,
It's all part of growing in life,,,i have three sisters and one bother,,and we have all moved away at different times,,,, at first it was hard,,,but we got over it,,,,and we ended up moving to the same town after spending years apart,,,,Life is funny that way.
So dont be sad,,,she will know how much you miss her,,,and i'm sure she'll miss you too!!

You need to talk to your sister! Tell her how much you're going to miss her and that you wish she wouldn't go. You can't make her stay, but if she does end up going, be sure to keep in contact through phone and email. That will make the time pass faster. Of course you'll still miss her, but she'll be back before you know it!

Awww it's just a year. Make sure she has a IM account and ask here to chat with you as often as possible. I am away from my brother and it help take away some of the sadness of not having him around all the time.

You shouldn't stop her from going, she'd hate you for it in the long run.
There's this wonderful thing now days called the internet which will enable you to stay in constant contact with her. Make sure you've got each others email addresses and you can speak with her everyday, she can even send you pictures.

You may miss her, but you can still send her email and call her. There are lots of ways to keep in touch. Trying to persuade her not to go probably is not the best thing to do. Just keep in touch with her once she does go.

don't make her feel guilty for going but assure her you will keep in touch by email or something make sure you write her a note to read on the plane tell her how much you will miss her and love her.. good luck it's only a year...

Tell your sister the truth and dont foret that she will still be at the end of a phone. make sure your sister knows how you feel before she leaves.
