writes: The worst possible thing that could've happend to me, did. My best friend Tasha left me and moved to Texas. About 3 nights before she left, I went over to her house and she told me that she was going to Texas to stay. As soon as she said that I said well I have to go home. I said goodbye and left. Well I spent 2 days at home without contacting her and then went over there the end of the 3rd day and all of her stuff was gone. I can't believe she would just leave and not come over and say bye. We've been best friends for 8 years. Why would she do that? At the least she could have left a note but she didn't. I just don't understand. I didn't get to say goodbye.

Her parents won't tell you? That is pretty horrible of them really, considering you have been friends with their daughter for 8 years! I think you need to say to them how sorry you are things were left the way they were and you really want to make it up to your mate - they can't not give you her address! Try that and see what happens. Where there's a will, there's a way - you can find her if you really really want to! xxx

AndersAmanda is verified as being by the original poster of the questionThat's the sad part.....I don't know where she was going in Texas. That's a big state. Her parents won't tell me because we had a big argument and don't talk anymore.

Hey there petal,
You made a very bad move by leaving as soon as she told you she was moving. Can you imagine how hard that would have been for her to tell you, her best friend of 8 years, that she had to leave? She would have been so nervous about telling you and would have been expecting you to understand the reasons and to say you would miss her like crazy but you would make sure you kept in contact everyday etc, but you didn't. You ran because you were only thinking of yourself. I understand that it came as a shock to hear that, but you can't really blame her for not contacting you, when you ran a mile when she told you. She was probably thinking you didn't want to hear from her again!
My advice to you is to write a letter to her and send her photos and a care-package to her new home. Explain that you are sorry you ran off and why you reacted like that and say to her that you were disappointed she didn't make contact again before she left, but that you understand why. Don't throw away 8 years of a friendship by only thinking of yourself. I bet she is very upset by the way you acted and is waiting for YOU to make the first move. Tell her you miss her and maybe in the near future arrange a surprise visit to see her! xxx
