The story

When i was 5 we moved out to a cottage shared by 4 families ( we were friends and yes, there were 4 dif houses) me and those kids had such a grat bond, like when i fought with my mom i would go to their house and stuff. well some years later my dog died and they were the ones to help me out with that as well. After some time, our parents had a fight so we had to move out, so we couldn't speak, after a month it was my birthday and i invited that family at my party . turns out that my mom never actually send the invitation... when i found out i imidiately called the youngest friom the family wich i had the closest bond with and spoke to her .. i couldn't stop crying on this cal... and then after MUCH begging she came over at mine, that was the best day of my life... let's say now we went to church with my school and her school was there too. i asked my teacher with tears in my eyes if i could go say hi and she said no.. then she asked hers and se said yes.. when she came to hug me i started crying and the hole church was looking at me but i really didn't care at all and that is probably going to be the last time i ever see her..

that's such a touching story; moving away is really tough, especially when you have such tight-knit friendships. sounds like those bonds you've made are really special. "absence makes the heart grow fonder" is so true here! hope you get to reconnect someday 😊

dude, i get it was all emotional, but maybe you and the fam could've handled things a bit better in the first place; like, keeping in touch ain't that hard if you really want it, ya know? i moved away from my best friend when we were kids, but we still wrote letters and stuff, and now we're closer than ever 🤔 can't blame just your mom for the invite thing; seems like y’all could’ve found a way to talk it out.

man, i get that moving out was rough, but seriously, you could have found a way to keep in touch more often, right... you ain't gotta rely on your folks all the time! i had a similar thing happen with my childhood buddy, but we made sure to keep it going through calls and stuff 😅 sounds like your mom not sending that invite was kinda messed up though. communication could've avoided this whole mess.

wow, man, that story hit hard!!!! moving away from friends is the worst. i totally feel you on that; it's like this emotional void that just lingers. really tricky to deal with parents messing up plans too. i once had my b-day plans ruined 'cause invites got lost; completely sucked. sounds like you did what you could to reach out 😢 hope you find peace with it all.

i get that you feel upset about what happened, but it seems like there might have been other ways to keep those connections alive, you know? as they say, "where there's a will, there's a way." friendships are resilient and can survive a lot with a bit of effort 🌟 it sounds like you really value those relationships, so don't lose hope! there's always the future to reconnect.
