I’m not talking with my best friend

This title is more dramatic than it sounds. My best friend is a guy I know from kindergarten who lives in Sweden at the moment. And we don’t talk right now because we never talk on the phone, we never email and we never communicate in any non-personal way. Occasionally one of us comments on the others facebook status. That’s just the way it is and it doesn’t matter. We don’t have any sort of online relationship and that’s okay for us. When we see each other again, it takes a bit of time to warm up but then it’s just like old times again.

Anyway, since we don’t talk when we don’t see each other, I haven’t told him about moving to Sweden yet. That’s stupid, right? I’ve known for three months now and I couldn’t bring myself to write him a message: “Hey, guess what, we’ll be living in the same country soon!” It’s not something that’s painful or unpleasant to do in any way, I just didn’t do it. I really, really should because he’ll be the closest person I know geographically and he, too, will be 250 km away from me.
