You keep in touch with your friend, and support them, believe me they have the worst end of the deal because they are leaving everyone they know, and don't feel guilty when they are gone to get a new friend yourself, life is too short to think you can only have one close friend. Best of Luck for the both of you =)

There is nothing more precious than a true friend. Not many people get to experience an honest, fearless friendship where there is no lying, backstabbing, ill-intent or ultimate betrayal.
If you are lucky to have already found something so precious, never let go. Hold onto it like your last breath in the arctic sea.
Cellphone, Email, IM, Chat keeps you in touch on a semi-personal level. Take advantage of webcams (great Xmas gift on your part!) so you can chat face to face.
Get involved in a project together (send weekly video journal messages to each other).
Set up 3 times to meet a year. Whether you visit him/her, She/He visits you or you meet each other halfway. Just be sure to plan it so that you have it to look forward to. If you are not old enough to do this, have your parents keep in touch so that you two can meet up this way.
The point is to keep the fun and the authenticity in your friendship. With so much distance between the two of you it is impossible to grab a late movie or crash at your place, so you'll have to keep the 'desire' there by creating other things to look forward to.
You definitely do not want to let such a friendship go.
Don't do anything drastic like run away together. Changes happen in our lives for a reason.
Before you do anything make sure your friend knows how much he/she will be missed. Spend as much time as you can before they leave and don't skimp on the hugs.
It's also a good idea to go and befriend that quiet character that always seems to be 'in a mood'. Because while no one will ever take your friends' place, you're gonna need someone else to fill that void. And said character could probably use a friend. You two can't be lonesome forever.
Good Luck.

If your relationship has been true and "tight" then I don't think distance will effect the situation. This can actually, in a way prove if your relationship with your friend was special for the past years, and that it still can be...when my friend went to a different school...we kept in touch, talked on the phone...but months later I didnt have time to call her and see her and the same with her..and then it became a normal thing if we didn't get calls and see eachother....and now after 2 years..my bestfriend comes to my school again..however..its not the same anymore...we lost the connection..even though were right by eachtoher...so do all the possibilities to get the chance to call her, e-mail her..and just make her feel that she has been a special person in your life..and hopefully the same with her towards you...hope it happens...

Dont worry, you friendship won't end b/c of how far you live apart. I know how you feel! my friend moved to Pasadena and I was really sad at first, but now we like talk to each other like evveryday! You can keep in contact through email, iming, and calling each other on the phone. And when you visit her it makes it extra speacial when you see her and you will have loads of fun! So don't worry everything willl be okay//:-]!!!

Its very hard when someone close to ur heart moves away - but i have heard & i wish u to believe that distance makes the heart grow fonder. Nowadays you have so many options at ur disposal to remain in touch. World is getting smaller day by day & hope u will be together soon - REAL SOON!
