Growing up, Growing apart.

"Sometimes, friends just grow apart and it's not your fault and it's not their fault, these things just happen. It doesn't always take distance, something as simple as time can do the trick- weeks turn into months and then years pass, people grow up. The changes will be so subtle that you won't recognize them as they're happening through each passing day, but then one night you'll look at them, really look at them, and find that you have nothing left to say to this person that you spent so many years talking to. Even best friends can become strangers with nothing left in common but shared memories. Eventually, talking about the past gets old and pretending like nothing's different does too, so it'll be for the best, you'll tell yourself, when you finally go your seperate ways and become nothing more than a friend on Facebook and text every month or so, an old face in a photograph next to a version of yourself that you don't recognize anymore."
