Why Do Friends Drift Apart?
A common occurrence in life is drifting apart of friends. We all have someone in our past that we were very close with, however, in the present day, we see very little of them if any at all. Unfortunately, things in life can get in the way of our relationships/friendships, so if we want these bonds to survive, it will require positive action. If you have not been in close contact for a long time, you may feel award in picking up the phone to call them or send them a message. The truth is, if you are already not talking as much as you used to, what harm can it do? Life often brings us the greatest rewards when we are willing to take risks, so why not put yourself out there so you can save your friendship?
How to Reconnect with Old Friends
Knowing how to reconnect with an old friend is one thing, however, actually doing so is another. It is also important for you to be honest about the friendship you had, was it truly as good as you remember, or are you looking at it through rose-tinted glasses? You may find that your friendship wasn’t actually that strong, however, seeing as you can only remember the good times, you have tricked yourself into believing that every aspect of it was wonderful. That said, if it was time that tore you apart, we believe that looking after positive relationships is important for our mental and spiritual well-being.
If you have not spent time with an old friend in a while, do not try to plan overly complicated for a first meeting. Do something simple like going out for a coffee, dinner, or to the movies; thanks to social media, you can reconnect with people from your past pretty easily. Maybe their interests have changed, maybe you have new interests that you now share. it is important to keep all of these things in mind when reaching out to someone as doing so will make for a better/more productive experience.
Taking Care of Your Friendships
If you want the relationships you enjoy to be lifelong, you have to be proactive in them. Trust and thoughtfulness go both ways; if only one person is trying to maintain a friendship, it won’t last long. Eventually, the person who is always putting themselves out there will feel like their energy will be better spent elsewhere. Having people in your life who will always be there for you is wonderful, however, your friends must be able to count on you too. While we understand that life can be busy, if you want your bonds to last, you must make time for the people who matter to you.
