I feel weird as fuck for posting this but I've had a different best friends almost every year since 2010. It's always made me feel a bit snakey but I don't have any grudges or ill feelings against each any of them, life just simply took us in different directions.

Brief summary: 2010: My childhood best friend (who I've known since nursery) and I go to different colleges. Which made it hard to meet up more than 2/3 times a year. So naturally we drift away a little.

2011: 2 girls I met in college became my best friends but at the end of the year, 1 girl failed and dropped out and I too leave college as I was offered a good job and my financial circumstances at the time meant I couldn't say no. Slowly but surely we started talking/seeing each other less.

Early 2012: My boss was my best friend during this time (I didn't really socialise much with anyone else during this period, but I wouldn't be who I am today without him) My financial issues where resolved and I left the job after just 7 months. I also realised I needed a degree to get to the position/level that I wanted.

Mid 2012: Return to college (to complete a intensive 3 month course so I can go uni) and met my fiance during this time. Her and her best friend became my 2 best friends during this time.

1. Fiance passes away in a car accident, and it was too awkward/depressing for me to spend time with my other best friend. So we slowly drifted out of each others lives. I still regret this tbh but I don't know how or if it would be possible to rekindle that friendship.

2014-2015 After a long time of being depressed and anti social after my fiance's death, 2 guys from my uni class slowly become my best friends and these guys are still in my life... Although we don't speak/spend time together as often as we once did once I start my business.

2015: I start spending more hours on the business and my business partner becomes my best friend (another guy I met in uni). For most of the year we only socialised with each other.

2016: My old childhood friend and I (the one who I mentioned for 2010) start spending time together again and he's become my best friend along with my business partner. However I suspect with us all graduating this summer and them both getting married and starting families soon, I feel they won't have as much time to spend on me understandably as our lifestyles will be considerably different. This may or may not eventually lead to us drifting away slowly for people who's life's are more compatible with ours.
