I've moved on a lot in recent years sometimes one has to move on and away from places that were once comfortable and are now no longer comfortable
an internet "friend" came to stay with me for a week while I was on holiday, not just with me - for I was on holiday with my son, so with us really
I was saddened, because the friend I thought I had didn't turn out to be particularly friendly; not in person, not towards me and especially not towards my son: I could have borne it if there had only been myself, but I did expect a little effort to be made towards other people sharing the house; so I made the decision to let go of this specific aquiantance

which requires my moving on in various other places too - not such a bad thing, I don't mind change (just not for the sake of it); perhaps I'm not good at "settling", I know I'm not in certain other areas of my life. . . and altho I don't like moving for the sake of it, the way the past panned out meant that I had to move homes many many times over, so perhaps I'm used to "moving on" from friendships
.
it's always sad, but sometimes it is what needs to be done (I hope I've got it right)

k....here's what appears to be a very benign remark, but it's very true:
We go through what we get to go through to get us to where we need to be.
You're exactly where you need to be, dearheart.
I trust that.
I don't always like what it takes to get me to that next point--but eventually, I 'get' that it took what it took--and A+B not equalling C happens. Sometimes it equals Em2.....it just does.
That's okay.
I don't necessarily 'like' what it took, but if it moved you to the 'next place', the 'next adventure'....so be it--it ain't an all bad thing.
Oh. And last I knew it was 'okay' to grieve the losses in life.
Sucks for the moment, but I'm trusting there was purpose in your life and in theirs.
Seems to me you've 'moved' forward and into something that's dufferent/better for you.
I'll hope they find the dignity and grace to 'move' as well.
