writes:My best friend and I are amazingly close friends. But the last few months or so she seems to be very insecure, UNiversity is coming up soon and we won't get to see each other as often. She keeps making comments like, "I should get use to being alone again" and "We should hang out less, so I won't be so attached". Also she keeps trying to tell me that I should hang out with other people, that they are more entertaining then her, which isn't true, I love hanging out with her, but she doesn't believe me. What can I do to get to realize that I really value her as a friend and that I don't want to lose her.

She may drift away a bit when she makes new friends so be prepared for that. Maybe the two of you could talk about it. It sounds like you think a lot of each other and strong friendships do survive.
