I'm so envious of your on-going relationships with your girlfriends.

I grew up in a very small rural community and was surrounded by relatives, all of whom are stuck with me, but because none of my childhood girlfriends ever left the area and we've lost track of each other. I found friends everywhere I moved, and we're still friends, though geographically dispersed. I have friends where I live now, but none with whom I share a whole life time of memories.

What a blessing for you.
