My brother and I have been awesome friends my whole life. We are only a year apart so we have always been able to talk about pretty much everything. I will miss him a lot when he’s away to college. How am i supposed to manage without my big brother?

I’m in the exact situation right now. There’s not much you can do, but you’ll still get to see him once in a while, right? I mean, there’s always the possibility of calling him, texting him, Facebooking him… All those sorts of things. Ever heard of Skype? You can contact him through that, too. Maybe ask if he can visit over the weekends every here and there.

Managing without him? It’s very difficult, but possible. It takes a while to get used to without having an older brother around, but it’s very well possible… While he’s not around, just spend time like you normally would. Keep positive, you’ll still see him sometimes 🙂

go to college with him

Answer by MILD
Because he is going to college doesn’t mean you’ll lose him as your best friend..It’s very hard to keep up a normal life when the one you trust is away but see it on the bright side you can still call him time to time and see how he is doing or ask him if you can visit him sometime. Accept the fact he is away like it’s time to move on and time to look for something interesting for me to do..Like go out with friends, go shopping, get involve with the community, practice a sport you might like or get into a team..Go to the movies..Get involve in activities like drawing or singing or playing an instrument..Anyway this way you won’t feel as much his absence. Hope I helped and good luck.
