[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t understand not valuing a prospective relationship just because someone might only live near you for a year or two. Let’s face it a lot of kids’ friendships change anyways as they get older - why would you miss out on a nice friendship just because it might not last? I don’t think you should go out of your way if you don’t like the other person’s company of course, but someone who might enjoy a glass of wine on your check while your kids keep each other entertained? Sounds like a winner to me. [/quote]

I agree--yes, it's sad when friends move away, but that doesn't seem like a good reason not to allow a friendship develop if you otherwise like people.  I don't see friendships as "investments" that have to pay off.  I see them as relationships.  And we've benefited from friendships where one party moved away--we have friends that we visit all over the country and all over the world.  When we travel, we almost always have friends to spend time with or even stay with.  It's great!  We'd miss out on some great adventures if we only made friends with people who stayed put.  [/quote]
