I am 19 years old, i went to a vocational high school and now i work full time in my trade of boilers. All my friends went to a normal high school and they all go to college now. I hang out with them when they are home and go visit them at school, but im afraid that when they graduate there all going to go there seperate ways and im never going to see them again. I have regular friends but these guys im talking about are my true best friends since ive been in elemetary school. So any advice on how to get over my curent "depresion" i guese would be appreciated.

You feel this way now because of ur age, when young guys want to hangout together. Yes, u probably will go ur separate ways, but there will come a day when u meet someone and marry and have a family, ur priorities will change, ur wife and family will be ur main concern. It`s life and life is not stagnant, it moves on and so must u. But for now, enjoy ur friends any way u can, phone, e-mails, short weekend visits, later there will be reunions, graduations, weddings,etc. they`re not lost forever and who knows, some may return to ur area to stay. Cheer up, this is a temporary thing, u don`t know what is ahead for u or ur friends.

My son is 38 yr old. He went to trade school instead of college. His high school buddies are now a physicist at Cal Tech, a loop lawyer in Chicago, a telephone repair man in Milwaukee, and a factory worker in western Wisc. They all get together whenever one is in town. Their main problem is not education differences, or jobs, but geography. They have been in each others' weddings, visited each other. They are still great buddies, but can't go out every Fri nite

Of course you are getting older and you have to venture out into the world. Your friends are always going to be your friends and you have to try to stay in contact. But dont worry they will be there but you still gotta live life and take those next steps.

In these days of computers, you can speak with each other daily! Use instant messaging, email- get a digital camera, you can share pictures daily!Know that the whole world changes continually...we all miss our old friends, our old times.

I just moved from Texas to Ohio and it sucked bc most of my friends were true friends. I kept in touch with most of them but the nyou have the jackasses that dont want to keep in touch. but yeah it sucks when people dont wanna keep in touch. Just try to keep an email and give it to them and you dont have to write every day just once or twice a week just to fill them in.

Just realize that what is meant to be is going to be and it ain't nothing you can do about it.
