View all responses

A time in my life that was so hard to say goodbye to was when I lost my best friend. We talked every day and for several hours at a time. I could tell her everything, and she would faithfully accept me. She brought so much joy and comfort to my life. I really thought that I had found a friend for life. I never will know what happened to her, but she just disappeared one day. I tried everything to find her, but to no avail. For months I cried every day, until I knew in my heart, she was not going to come back. Was she dead? I didn’t know. I never have had closure over that friendship, and I probably will never have closure. It was so hard to let go of her and to say goodbye. But with time, the pain has gotten easier. I still think about her a lot, but I can’t dwell on it. For whatever reason, she had to go, and I need to come to terms with that. I will always miss her, but I have to say goodbye.

I miss you dear friend…
