Just recently, I found out that a friend I have a very close relationship with(non-physical, mind you) is leaving the country for 19 months. I don't know when she's going, but I care very, very deeply for her, and 19 months seems like an absolute age. I've never been in a relationship, and my friendship with this girl is by far the closest friendship I've ever had. I'd go as far as saying that I love her, and have done for quite some time. She knows I care this much for her (at least I think she does), but when I did ask her out about 10 months ago, she explained to me that she doesn't seek relationships with anyone. Regardless, I 'stayed the course', determined not to let our friendship deteriorate, and we got closer to one another as friends. Heck, I even wrote on my birthday card to her that she's my best friend.
The problem is, we don't talk very much online. In fact we hardly ever talk online unless we haven't talked for a while (we live in different cities, so the only time I really spend with her is during college terms). Add to that the fact that she's rarely online as it is, and I'm seriously beginning to fear that I'll lose this close friendship with her as a result.
