Yes Angie, Mandy is so right. You have to nurture friendships and not put them on the back burner. It's hard enough when friends live close because of family, committments..etc. and even hard sometimes long distance.

I have had two friends like this. One was closer to our mother's age. She moved away & has now moved back but she seems different. I saw her when she first got back but not since then. That was around a month ago. I don't know where she moved or a number so I can't find her. The second I have only been talking to for a few weeks. She moved in next door & our kids hit it off so we met. I ended up staying just talking to her for 5 hrs until my hubby come to check on me at 1am. We didn't even realize the time. She is a wonderful person & we have much in common. Congrats Angie.

Angie,
I'm so happy for you. Good friends are a real blessing. They can help get you through just about anything, the good times and the bad.

Bad friends - who hasn't been through that! You're right Angie. It does make you appreciate the good ones.

That is wonderful Angie!! I've been through the same thing a little over a year ago. I lived for years right down our dirt road from a lady who I just never introduced myself to. Well, finally we met and we were instant friends.
I adore her and even though her and I went through some tough times together due to a jealous husband of hers our friendship made it through. She's the one I ride horses with a lot and if we don't talk daily "something's wrong". I hope you find yourself many years with your new friend and the bond continues. I agree w/ Mandy also. Friendships close or far need focus on "keeping in touch". I've seen friendships end because the time wasn't taken to care for the relationship.
