After HIgh School people have to "grow up" so to speak. They get jobs or pursue their education. Some leave home, some stay home. It is a definite change in pace and responsibility. I found that as I grew older and changed I lost some of the things I had in common with my HS friends and our relationships went to the wayside. I still have the same best friend I have had since 8th grade, but we went to the same university and lived in the same dorm 1 floor away so we had no way to lose touch even if we wanted to...lol. I have many new friends that I have made through work and my husband over the years that have proved to be lasting. Friends come and go, its the natural progression of things. For example we are the first couple in our network to have children, so we don't go out with our single friends as much. We are still friends, just don't see as much of eachother. You will forge new relationships and hold on to the friendships that are dear to you. I hope you find some fun this summer. It is out there!

It's part of life:-\ After high school people go all different directions (jr college, university, work, etc which could be all over the country/world). Just survive the summer. If you're going to college, you'll make lots of friends there. If you're not, try getting a job somewhere with a lot of employees and make friends there. Throughout life friends will come and go, and the going is never the fun part, but sometimes it ends up being a ton of fun to get back in touch with them after not talking for years. Have fun and make new friends:)

Ive kept in touch with all the people I talked to in high school or the ones that mattered at least, well not that mattered cause everyone matters but the closest ones I guess I can say. Its pretty amazing that we all still talk and everything but as time goes by we get introduced to different people and we make more friends (still talking to the same high school people) so its now like bigger gatherings. Anyway, you'll make more friends in college, just kinda get out and make new friends. Or join a study group or something and you'll meet new people you can hang out with.
Take care!

We all have times in our lives when we have trouble connecting with friends and people. The best thing to do is get involved. Sitting around the house feeling lonely isn't going to make you feel better or solve the problems.
- Join a club
- Become involved with a sport
- Call your friends from high school and organize a night out or invite them over
Remember that when you start working or go to college you will make new friends.

Sadly Andrea,
I think this happens a lot! After I graduated college none of my best friends (two of whom I was pretty attached at the hip to) kept in contact. We exchanged letters for about a month but then they stopped. You can mope, you can write them, or you can write it off as not a friendship to begin with and find something really meaningful, which is what I found in graduate school.
You're still young and still have a lot of people to meet. If this friend in Kansas is special then don't loose it and keep in touch as much as possible, emails, postcards, IMs, little care packages...whatever!
Good luck!

Oh god yeah. I hardly talk to anyone from high school. And, it seems to be the same with a lot of people I know. College is where a lot of the lasting friends are found. You meet the people that have the most in common with you. Sorry you feel sad. It will get better.

Its happened to me, I had my group of people that I hung out with. One of them was my roommate last year at college. We haven't spoken much this summer at all, and we even ended last year on good terms. I still hang out with a friend from high school, but it isn't the one that I hung out with the most. It takes work to keep friendships close, and sometimes that isn't easy, also after high school most college students work full time during the summer so that makes it hard too.

just like you. after highskool no one really matters anymore. you'll find new friends at college and those are the ones that are your real ones.
