I had a close friend when I was in middle school. He was a little dorky, but I was also an asian kid going to school in an all white community and was getting teased a lot so I never even noticed. We were so close, almost unseperable. It was sweet.
Then we entered high school - he grew into his gangly body, grew long legs and joined sports - while I remained short, round and he was no longer interested in my funny witty self - but with double Ds. I didn't care for sports - instead I was all about my grades. (Well, Luke S. of the awesome arms and nice aftershave in spanish class) We grew apart and by junior year we didn't even speak. We were not rude or mean to each other - just didn't care anymore
Almost seven years later I was reading in the newspaper tonight that he overdosed from sniffing household chemicals.
That sweet little boy was now gone. I hadn't realized how much I looked forward to seeing him at the ten year reunion.

I know what you're going through. But, everything happens for a reason. You lost touch with this person because the stars have more in store for you. Had you and he still been as close as you were before high school, you would have been with him doing what took his life. Sometimes losing touch with friends is a blessing. You are alive today because of it. Remember him for the good things, you'll always have that sweet little boy.

That's really sad.... you do lose touch
The girl I was closest to in high school was someone I hardly kept in touch with in college.... we touched base a couple of times here & there after that, but not for years..... then a couple of years ago I found out she died from a brain tumor....
