"Like, when some people graduate, they tend to start cutting back on communication/wean off contact so that when they do leave it doesn't hurt as badly as it would if you were still talking 25/7.

Instead of going cold turkey with friendships, you just cease slowly. It's not something that I'm saying should be happening. It's really not a good thing. But for some, it makes sense.

And I'm guessing in the end it is less painful.

It's still harder in the long run I think."

You would be right.

But I think it's ironic that it's what we just did, even though we always promised we wouldn't.
