Long Distance Relationship with your Barkada/Friends.

[thesweetwitch]

Nakakarelate ako super.

Well, since nasa Manila sila and I'm staying here at Bulacan, yung best way to communicate with them is through FB and mobile. It's kinda sad nga lang sometimes kasi medyo malayo sila saken pero we still manage to see each other naman kapag may mga special occasion. Ayun. Share lang. 

[tomoyochan]

how do you handle and maintain this?

eh kasi, malapit na kaming magseparate ways ng mga barkada and highschool friends ko. and magkakahiwalay pang universities and places ang papasukan namin sa college. natatakot kasi akong mawalan kami ng communication. i just hope, friends pa rin despite the distance.

ayun, gusto ko lang pong malaman 'yung mga thoughts niyo about this kind of sitch.

Real friends will reach out to you (as you will do to them) no matter what and where. Dito  mo malalaman kung totoong friend sila or pag andyan ka lang saka kayo friends. I have experienced this when I went to abroad to study. I left my friends for almost 2 years. Of all those 2 years, iisa lang yung matiyagang nag eemail, nagtetext sa roaming ko at nagpapadala ng cards pag may occasion. Napagtanto ko na sya talaga yung totoong friend ko. She sends small gifts along with the cards, walang mintis for two years, pag birthday ko at pag Christmas. I feel blessed to have her. Laging andyan para mag reply lalo na pag nalulungkot ako. Ganun din ako sa kanya. Tatawagan ko sya, eemail-an, itetext etc. We go out of our way to give time for each other just to communicate. And that's what real friendship is about, it's never about the distance. It's always giving time to check on each other.

ah, yes, my good friend Ryuji. sya talaga best friend ko since 2005. although we never talk often lalo na nung andito na ako sa states, everytime i go back to pinas we would always go to these good places, and eat at fine restaurants, watch movies and go to bookstores.  (favourite namen japanese)

yan ang pleasure nameng dalawa, kumain ng masasarap at madami, at manuod ng movie. he's a really nice, smart intelligent funny guy. everything i can look for in a friend nasa kanya. once ill be back soon, sya una kong i-m-meet and relive the times gone by.

yung Best Friend ko, Best Friend ko since Grade. 4 (4th year HS na ako. )
Classmate kami nung Elementary, eh nagkaiba kami ng HS.
pero okay naman kami, kahit minsan lang mag-usap, yung pag-uusap na yun eh worth the days na hindi kami nag-uusap. Minsan umaalis alis kami, Minsan telebabad, Minsan naman Sleep Over, kaya nababawi din.
kahit kasi baliktarin ang mundo, siya parin ang best friend ko, kaya ayun.

Communication never fails friends, you know. Keep that and you'll see na parang hindi LDR yung meron kayo. Friends, especially barkadas, stay close no matter what naman eh, in my opinion. Distance does not necessarily matter as long as you continue to care for each other. Never forget to talk; ask one another how each is doing.

my bestfriend moved to singapore and we keep in touch through skype. we make kwento a lot so thank God talaga that skype was invented. the both of us have a moshi moshi handset.. both pink kasi we love pink! hahaha

[pooper]

My best friend for more than 10 years lives in Texas. We don'talk regularly but when we do, super tagal and lahat talaga ng dapat ikwento ikekewento namin sa isa't isa na parang walang nagbago. We were suppose to see each other last July but because of school and other things hindi matuloy tuloy. I really miss her. We're both looking forward na magkita next time na uuwi sila dito, tuloy na talaga yun rain or shine.

kami nung bff ko, two years ng hindi magkasama. pero we manage naman to keep in touch.text,kita,gala,chat ganon.kahit syempre nakakapanibago na wala siya minsan,may communication pa rin naman.

and this is the cause why internet is considered useful. Especially if that friend is on the other side of the world. The time difference is not really a problem, because there are still times when the both of us are still awake.

Communication is important. We should be open to each other to maintain a barkada factor.

i so agree with what you said. we are lucky internet nowadays is easily accessible and not THAT expensive.

communication is indeed important. me and my friend, we skype once a week just to catch up.. we use a pink moshi moshi handset to talk.

wew..i belong.. LDR din kme ng mga bff ko (3 kame)..we parted ways after high school since iba ibang college/universities ang pinasukan namin..for almost 4years na...but luckily ngreunion kme once last march nung nagpunta ako ng manila..nasa manila kase sila, ako lang ang naiwan sa province.. hayy..but anyway bitin din yung reunion namin kasi konti lang ang time na nagkasama kami...i think mga almost 4hours lang kami nagkasama...hayy..

at first i felt na okey lang naman ang paglalayo namin since i had my own fun in my college experience , i kinda felt that my life change 'coz... pag college kasi you experience MORE of excitement than your hs life...BUT di din nagtagal I LONG FOR MY BESTFRIENDs..i miss them kasi sila lang yung naituturing ko na my BEST & TRUE friends...yung tipong gusto kong masibahan ng mga problems ko...yung tipong I NEED THEIR SHOULDER TO LEAN ON..  :(and sometimes i cried at night when i'm remembering myself with them ..kasi pag sila ang kasama ko i feel na hindi sila gagawa ng mga bagay na makapagpapasakit saken..with them i DON'T FEEL PAIN...i'm just comfortable and happy 

it's so sad to be away with your bestfriend...kasi in time din may mga sari-sarili na din silang buhay..they'll meet new friends and their life will also changed..but i believed  na if you truly treasure your friendship and treat each other as BESTFRIENDS FOR LAYP...then no matter how distance and time will separate you... you're still gonna be friends not just for show but  it stays in your HEART. and whenever you see each other your feeling does not change at all.. they are what they are, and you are what you are... you're still willing to accept each other as bestfriends for life! 

in my case...sila pa rin ang bestfriend ever koh!
wala man kaming masyadong communication...infrequent lang din sa chat at fb..
but i'll always love them!

LDR din kami ng BFFs ko. Apat kasi kami. Yung dalawa they enrolled in the same university (almost an hour drive from my school) and the other one is in Baguio habang ako nagenroll sa isang school na malapit lang sa amin (10-15 minute drive from my house).

One of my bestfriends is in Japan. She comes home once or twice a year.

I think, the best way to keep an LDR is to make sure that you talk regularly. That's what we've been doing for 3 years now and we're as close as ever.

Communication is a must pag LDR.

I'm not a very vocal person, I have "social anxiety" ever since umalis kami sa Pinas kaya mas naging hindi ako vocal. I really want to preserve the friendship I left with my friends sa pinas pero yun nga I think I failed to do my part kaya distant na ako sa kanila ngayon. Umuwi ako nung 2010, after 2 years of being away... from 10 people which I used to call "best friends" I'm down to 3. Kaya ngayon I try to communicate with them as much as I could because I want to keep them. Gusto ko meron parin akong matawag na kaibigan at gusto kong matawag na kaibigan. Kaya yun nga, communication is a must.

i can totally relate with this!

ever since HS graduation, the BASTION, my-HS-friends-slash-classmates started to part ways... some of them continue their studies in Manila, others stayed here in Laguna... but we still find ways to see each other, especially during sem breaks... text messages, GM's, they're always there to keep in touch with one another... sometimes, we post to our Facebook group so that we could update each other about what's happening on us, and to tell each other how much we madly miss each other!!!

so with my college friends, the Bheckz... since we're on our 4th year, we're really busy with our OJT but we still manage to see each other once a week... actually, im gonna see them later for our grad pic! yay!

even if mountains and seas separate you from your circle of friends, just remember that you're still under one sky... finding ways to keep in touch with your friends... that's the key to a true friendship!
