It's been 2 and a bit months since my American friends left Glasgow and moved to Germany and I am still struggling to adjust. 
I definitely think the amount of bad things I've had to deal with since they left hasn't helped matters at all though. 




The main thing that's not helped matters is the fact I had 2 deaths to deal with so soon after Christmas. I think because of this - I've not had time to fully process/accept my friends are no longer close by to me or adjust to it myself. 




I know my friends miss Glasgow too and are also finding it hard getting settled into Dresden, so it's not just me struggling at least. But I guess Germany is quite a bit different to Scotland, especially if they have to learn a language too.

But I am finding it very hard not even being able to chat to them as much as usual. I know they have to work/earn money, but it's still sad for me, as I loved speaking to them nearly every day (and not just at night) when they were in Glasgow...and I don't have that anymore. 


The other thing I find sad is that I don't look forward to weekends the same now. When my American friends were close by, I had most weekends lined up where I was seeing someone other than family. But that's a thing of the past now too, bar when I see my old school friend.
