Why would you leave me?

Okay, so my friend who always hangs out with is starting to find that she doesnt fit in, but I think she fits in just fine to me. Shes freakin out because I might be heading to england to got o a boarding school, and she really doesnt want me to go, but like I really think it might be kool to go. And she keeps going on about if I leave shes going to leave are other friends and just be lonely. What should I tell her? Help?

Answer #1

Ok, it sounds like shes trying to guilt you into not going. If you think that this boarding school would be a good experince for you, then go ahead and do it. Theres nothing she can do to make you stay, but you do need to support her in finding new friends. Start making new friends of your own and introducing them to her. She might start to understand how you feel about doing something new, and this might also push her to try and do new things too. When/if you do go to the boarding school, set up a webcam and have a conversation with her face-to-face at least once a week, so she won’t feel so alone. Ask her a lot about how she’s doing, and if she has nothing to say, she’ll feel like she should do something so she can talk to you about it. If you talk too much about yourself in the beginning, she’ll feel even more left out and alone. Hope my advice helps!

Answer #2

Don’t let one person control your life… its the opportunity of a lifetime, dont throw that away. she’ll probably find other friends, you can always plan phone calls and write letters, etc.
