i recently finished high school and my friends and i swore we'd be friends forever (as u do) but now... well, i feel like i have no one. all of my friends were from school
so is it normal to lose touch and be alone for a while, until u make uni (college) friends? or is this not normal. any advice would be greatly appreciated

Yes it's normal. I had always had friends and we always promised to be friends forever (as we are lol) but yeah we are all busy and we all have our lives (you gotta move on with your life, you know BUT that doesn't mean you have to lose your friends) As long as you talk, call or E-mail them every once in awhile, it's cool!
Also you guys should like make a day to hang out every while! I always do that!

It is quite normal. The sad thought of losing your old friends and the fear of the unknow is so overwhleming that you make promises not to lose touch etc. But once you actually start to get a taste of the unknown (like college life) and all the fun and the excitement - the unknow doesnt seem to be so fearful anymore. As you get comfortable with your new life style, goals and objectives - you will start maing new friends. Dont worry, things will fall into place. But make sure to learn to let go and dont expect everything to be as easy as when you were in high school . Have an open mind, you will have plenty of friends.
Good Luck and all the best to you.

yeah it is normal. It's hard but you will find new friends in college and if the friendships are meant to be you may maintain a few from high school. If you put the work into maintaining them.

If you want to keep your friends you have to put in the effort. People get caught up with life sometimes, so you might not talk to friends for weeks or months. If they are really your friend you should be able to pick up where you left off when you talk to them again.

i think it is just normal to feel like you are losing in touch with your friends...but tell you this:
friendship does not just rely on the days you were together..that even hundred of miles keep you away from each other, if friendship still lingers in your heart you will know that you have your own lives to live with...but still a part of you is still with them...

the pressure of the graduates entering the real world makes them and you, to think and to choose. theres the fear of the unknown. but i do believe they doesnt want to lose contact with you. just as simple as hi and hello to start, and wait on there next move.
