5 Things My Long Distance Friend Needs to Know

Wow, who would’ve known that we would be battling the geography barrier? Who would’ve ever guessed we would be living in different time zones?

I just have a few things to say to you, though.

1) No matter how far the distance gets, you're always right next to my heart

You could be 3000 miles away and I love you just as much as if you were 3 miles away, if not more. I have friends close by who I'm able to see as often as I want but I know it's not that simple for us so yes, I keep you closer to my heart than you know.

2) Thank you for only being a text or phone call away

With technology now a days, I'm so glad you are very familiar with for the times that I need to vent or cry or simply hear your voice. You never hestitate to pick up the phone or text me when you see my name come across the screen. I text you out of the blue for absolutley nothing and you manage to \work my random texts and calls into your busy scehdule.

3) I’m still cheering you on, even from miles away

I see you having fun with all your new friends. I see you doing things that we used to do. I see you moving forward with school and new jobs. It sucks that I don't get to be a part of all of that but you need to know that more than that, I'm so happy cheering you on from the sidelines. Watching you grow into who you're becoming has become one of my favorite things.

4) I miss you each and every day

It was very weird going from seeing you every single day and having a constant lunch date. It was weird no longer having someone to do dumb things with me. There isn't a day that goes by where I don't wish you were back home. While facetiming you while you get ready or texting you while you're eating, it's never gonna beat us dancing around my room or just being lazy all day.

5) My ‘goodbye’ is never a goodbye

I never mean the word "goodbye." Goodbye, by definition is a farewell. My intentions are never to say bye to you for good. I plan on seeing you again. You aren't a good friend for no reason. Our paths are bound to cross again at some point. I'll keeping saying "till next time" to you.

Whether you’re up the coast or across the country, no distance is too far for my heart. Seeing you after such a long period of time is one of the sweetest hellos and hardest see-you-later's, but the distance between us is only making our friendship grow stronger.I'm being patient until i get to see you again. Know, long-distance best friend, I love you more than anything and no distance between us could every change that.

When I was learning how to talk, I was taught both Portuguese and English at the same time. In elementary school, I started taking mandatory Spanish classes, which I did well in because of my knowledge of Portuguese. Then in high school, on top of taking Spanish, I also started taking French. Now, in college, already fluent in English and Portuguese, I'm in the process of becoming fluent in Spanish, and I have a standard high school level understanding of French.
