People leave. Love them; relate to them; do it in your now. But one thing about all of us: We WILL leave. That is just life on life's terms. The trick is to not attach to people. Hang on tightly, but let go lightly.

Just my opinion. My whole career is riddled with being wrong, and I could be this time, too.

Thanks for your post.

I think maybe your right maybe i do get attached to some people its just hitting me hard because its all at once its like i just start ti open upand they go i know people leave all the time and its life people get better jobs im just being stupid and selfish not wanting them to go

You're not stupid or selfish. You just get comfortable with people and grow to trust them, normal human quality. mb hard but try to give the new people a chance. When I was in the hospital for my mental health someone advised me to trust the process.

Hope all goes well for u.
