My best friend someone who I have had this close connection to nad opened up in ways i never thought i could for the last five years has graduated college before me and left for a very high profile job. The thing is she is now about 600miles away but upon leaving she barley said anything to me it was just like goodbye and good-luck. It was so deveasating beacuse she was almost so dismisive about it ; I mean she was more emotinol about leaving other friends and it has left me quite upset. I maen we've been so close for so long shes like a sister to me but i'm kinda diasspointed in her in the way we left off. Am I overreacting.

I also think there were tinges of a romantic attachment there so it was a little harder to let go than I imagined

yes, yes you are. one of the things you have to realise is that life goes on, and new friendships form. it's a part of life. all you can do is continue to be there for them. im in a situation myself with my best friend. sure, we're best friends, yet we've drifted apart from each other, gone our separate ways, and we've been best friends since the beginning of seventh grade, which is almost eight yrs. and soon she's going to sweden and me being in australia, we will be miles away, yet because i know we're best friends, it makes it ok not only because of that friendship we have made but that i know i will see her again

One of two things, either it was going to be difficult for her to leave you without getting upset, so she was dismissive about it.
Or
Unfortunately she did not view the friendship as intently as you did, although this is hard to believe given that you say she spent so much time with you.
I dont think you overreacting but i do think you should talk to her, the last thing you want to do is jump to conclusions and feel hurt when she may not have ment it that way!

Yes. Maybe it was too hard for her to get more emotional? Or maybe with you its not really goodbye to her just long-distance. Or maybe she meant alot more to you then you did to her. Time will tell, until then there is no need to jump around into conclusions and work yourself into a state over it.

Probably, yes!
She must be overwhelmed with so many sudden changes.
Let her be alone for a few days, and then call, e-m or write her, and see how it goes...
Tell her you'd like to pay her a visit.... and, by her reaction, you'll get some answers...
G'd Luck!!

Maybe it was harder for her to say goodbye to you than it was to the others, so she avoided it.
