Making the Distance

 

Check these out, too...

  • Wanna make a new friend? 4 festive ice breakers
  • How to work a party like it's your job
  • I'm freaked about befriending the populars
  • My bestie isn't acting like a very good friend

Everything may seem fine and dandy so far this year, but one thing is missing: your very best friend. Maybe she had to move because of her mom’s job, or her fab new house means a new school. You’re gonna miss her, but here’s how to stay close.
 
Ride the Tech Train
 
In today’s teched-out world, there’s no reason you and your friend can’t remain BFFs. Cells, IM, texts, e-mail and Facebook can help keep your friendship intact. Life can get super busy, so set a time in stone to chat each week.
 
Make Nice Much?
 
Refuse to be friendless when your opportunities are endless! Make it your mission to mingle with the masses. Get out there and be sociable. Like a butterfly.
 
Hit the Road
 
Why not spread those wings on over to your BFF’s new digs! Whether she’s one town over or clear across the country, consider planning a visit. For faraway BFFs, talk to your parents about letting you make the trip.
 
No Cloning Around
 

When making new acquaintances, no comparisons. OK? No one will be a carbon copy of her, and would you even want that?

My BFF is going 2 a different middle school and were in the 6th grade! Its been hard, mostly cause she doesnt have internet, a cell, or any other way to contact me in tech. sooooo we send letters 2 each other in code.Its also keeping our friendship interesting cause of the drama in both schools, its been zbwly (super) fun.

MOD!
I can't find a good BFF anywhere I go through friends faster than asnyone I know! My parents are getting frustrated because one day I'm making plans with one girl the next day I'm saying I don't wanna go to the movies with her. I just want somebody to be there for me but I don't even think it's possible! Help me! How can I have a solid BFF?

 

Hey girlie, give these new friends a chance. Hang out with them more before you decide they're not a good friend. A good BFF is hard to find and you can't force it. Find yourself a group of friends that you love to hang out with and wait for your BFF soulmate to find you.
