Scenario

When your chosen sister moves away and changes everything

Sarah and I have been inseparable since we were kids and our families always joke that we're more like sisters than friends, but now we're in our thirties and she wants to move across the country for a job and I feel like I'm losing a limb. We keep having these surface-level conversations about how excited we should be for her, but underneath we're both terrified of what this means for us.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A major life transition is forcing both people to confront how dependent their identities have become on their proximity to each other.
