Do you have a best friend?
Are there times when you do, and times when you don't? That happens to all of us.
Sometimes we move and lose touch with our best friend. Sometimes our interests change. Your best friend spends most of her time playing hockey, and your new passion is chess.
Sometimes one of us finds a new best friend. That can hurt. No matter what happens, it's good to talk to someone about it.
