need strength
 

My friend is leaving for a few months and Im sad. When we talked earlier, I just burst into tears. I'm gonna miss him so much but I feel bad because I started crying on the phone with him.

Crying is not a good way to end things.....

Why couldn't I just be strong and not cry? I care about him and I just want to be supportive.

It isn't bad that you cried. Crying is a natural reaction to having a strong emotion. What you choose to do from this point forward will decide whether or not you handled the situation well.

((((((Angelhugs))))))))) there is no shame in crying sweetheart its natural your oviously going to misss your friend a great deal and im sure he realises that ,on the bright side its just for a few months and you can always post on here when your feeling sad .....................love Lulu xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Was I unsupportive by crying while on the phone talking to him? I just don't want him to leave feeling bad thinking that I'm back here all upset and crying.

He didn't really show any emotion on the phone. He knew I was upset but he hung up and went the bed.

When you are sad and miss him, you cam come and be here with us!

Awww, thanks so much!

I think, it's nice you have a friend you care so much for. It's nice to not be numbed by something and be a caring person today.

Thanks for sharing
