March 8th

This is my best friends birthday!!! Although to be honest with you I don't think you could consider us best friends anymore.  She has moved to Mississippi with her fiance, no I'm not mad at her for that.  I chose to follow my path and move to North Carolina with Stefan and she has every right to follow her path as well,  however that being said she has not made much of an effort to stay in touch.  I'm upset that I have lost one of my closest and dearest friends of over 13 years!  Why do people drift apart?  I know that everyone lives their own lives and sometimes you get so caught up in your own life that you forget about others.  I'm not pointing fingers because I am guilty of this as well, it just sucks that it happens.  I sent her a couple of text wishing her a happy birthday and asking how her day went and so on....I received 1 text back and it said Thanks!!!  I know I could have called but I never know what her schedule is and didn't wanna interupt if she was working or something. I figured if she had text me back then I would call.  After recieving 1 text I figured she was busy with other things and didn't have time to talk.  I just wished we could have done all the things we said we would do when we were younger.   We talked about taking family trips together and our kids growing up together(allthough she is lacking in this department right now...LOL), just so much that now it looks like will never happen.  She has talked about moving to France or Spain, what for I have no clue, but again that's here new dreams.  

I guess it just hurts that on my best friends birthday I don't get to do anything else but send a few text and only get 1 response.  I know it's supposed to be the thought that counts and I know it does but still I want more...is that to much to ask from your friends?
