Reconnecting and patching up an old friendship

[Roadtrip]

Wow, I hadn't realized so many of us had relationships like this!! I've had two friendships that I felt a strong emotional bond with these friends, but we drifted.. and drifted.

I've tried to press the one into what was wrong or what I did, but ultimately gave up and just let go. Surprisingly we are Facebook "friends" but do not talk.

The second friendship was a long distance friendship and I was young, so of course I was preoccupied with life and was drifted apart. We would ocationally find one another and catch up and I found she had a Facebook page and friended her... only to find she had can cancer and was really sick. We only exchanged a few emails after that where I found she was in the middle of round two of an aggressive chemotherapy and was real sick. We cleared the air so to speak and a month or so later, she passed away, so I was glad we reconnected when we did if even for a moment. While it still hurts knowing shes not there I can smile at the fun times we had together!

Good luck!!
