['My best friend is supposed to come over next week, but due to weather she may not come until later. I really miss her so I hope she visits soon.', 'Oh that stinks. Does she live far away?', "She lives in Alaska and I live in Indiana, so it's a bit far! And I don't have many real friends so I've been feeling a bit lonely."]
I completely understand that. I'm so busy I hardly socialize at all.
I haven't seen my best friend in a long time. She's supposed to be coming next week, but may not be able to come. I hope she can, though.
