Life advice... You should treat everyone like they are a person. It's kinda just polite, ya know?

Also chill dude, you don't even know this girl. You're 18 and horny. Even if that's not what you think is happening, that's the truth. Get her socials, potentially even be a good friend to her and see where that leads to but seriously all this angst over some chick you barely know is not going to help you.

When she switched from advanced to regular, her coordinator strongly advised against it and so she requested a move, we met afterwards and the move just came into affect. But yeah I don’t have a full liscence and so fourth. I’m going to stay in contact of course but I just can’t fathom only having digital communication. Either way it is what it is.

I’m kinda in a similar situation where i find myself falling in love with my really close friend and I’m what passes for an adult. Good on ya for trying, i don’t think have the guts to try anything with my situation because i don’t want to lose an otherwise really great friend by being what i consider selfish.

Well I think you should tell her how you feel you’re young and don’t know when you’ll see her again (if you see her again) it’ll suck in the end if didn’t convey what you felt I’m pretty sure she might be feeling the same way as well

Yeah, unfortunately I can see how this kind of thing can happen in a situation like that, even without any malicious intent (at least at first)

Bill comes in slightly above what you were expecting, normally you'd go overdrawn and stuff, but it's ok - you have all this extra money set aside! You'll just remember to put a bit more aside next month.

Whoops, something broke and you don't have the money for it! Well... Surely it wouldn't hurt anyone to use some of this money for it? You'll pay it back before it becomes an issue!

And so on, until you just get used to spending this money that isn't yours, lending it out, etc, until you suddenly realise there's none left.

Did all social media disappear in the 5 minutes I took a shit? Instagram, snapchat, discord, idfk. We live in a digital age and you can’t somehow keep contact? That’s the only tifu I’m seeing here lol

Where I live I often have to travel an hour or more to see my friends. It's not that bad of a trip.

Otherwise, get her address and write letters to her. You will gain a pen pal and keep in touch. And pen pals are a lot of fun.
