writes:Hey,Well, a great friend who is also my teacher is leaving my school tomorrow to move far away and I don't expect to see him again.He has helped me through so much. He talked and encouraged me when I needed it most and when no one was there for me. After 7 years of knowing him, I just have no idea what to say to him before he leaves! I want to tell him how much encouragement and help he gave me, but I know that when I see him and talk to him for the last time, I'll say something stupid and regret it later wishing I'd said something else. I've done this before you see, so I'm particularly worried about this on this occasion, especially when he is so dear to me. I feel so sad that he's going. It feels like I'm losing a best friend because he was always there to help me through difficult times. I'm scared of what school will be like without him there, and how weird it's going to be when i have lessons in his room and he's not gonna be there to chat to. It feels like the place is already missing something. There's so much to say, but I don't have the right words or a lot of time to say it.Could anyone help me on how I could be more confident about talking to him for the last time and what I could possibly say to cover 7 years of friendship?Thanks

Me and my friend made a book filled with photos in which we wrote down all that we wanted to say to him.
Thank you for all your help and Gecko12, I hope that you are ok and were able to talk to your friend before they left/leave.
Thanks everyone and take care

Again contact is good. Use this site for support if you want.
Use me for support as well. Just message me. I'll be going through exactly the same thing within hours...

 Well if you worry about forgeting or not knowing what to say then why don't you write your feelings down in a letter. You can give it to him or, you can read it to him and just explain why you had to write your words down.
It doesn't have to be the end you can give him your e-mail address and you guys can stay in contact. Just say to him what you have told us right now. Also add what else you would like to say. Really don't think of it as the last time you are seeing him because there are many ways you can remain in contact with him. Good luck!!

Just pour your heart in the letter, I'm pretty sure that whatever you write, as long as it is sincere, he will like hearing it.
