Best friends to strangers?
We’ve all had that friend. The one we thought we’d be friends with forever. That one person or a group of friends with whom you no longer talk. That adorable friend you used to hang out with all the time, shared secrets with, and made each other’s lives so much better. How you would laugh until your belly hurt. Those vibrant moments you had and thought to yourself “I can’t lose this one”.
Well, life isn’t always predictable, and neither are friendships. We’ve all felt the pain of losing a once-close friend, someone who was once a part of our daily lives. If you’re reading this, you’ve probably experienced something similar. Your best friend is no longer with you. It’s also painful.
You are not alone. Every year, millions of people are affected by this. And, while it is never easy, remember that you are not to blame. Friendships can sometimes run their course.
