Should I go with my mom to Pheonix?

Question

I am an eleven year old kid. My mom is moving to Pheonix AZ, from Tucson AZ. The house that she is buying is very big. But my Dads house is not. At her house I would have a better school, a PS3, and a great neighborhood. Here I have a Wii, great friends, and a reputation. I have friends and one enemy. I have one girl that I really like, and I think she likes me. I have told them that I might be moving, and she was the one that cared the most. My enemy was my best friend last week, but is mad at me because the girl I like is his girlfriend. I have thought about moving for weeks, and he is making me want to move even more. My friends would be really sad if I move, and so would I. I could get over it but I don't know if they could. Also what should I do about my enemy? Should I forget about him? Should I try to become friends with him again? Should I stop liking the girl that has torn our friendship apart? The problem is... He just won't let go of her. HELP!

Answer 1

first of all, he is not your enemy - you are his enemy.  you took his girlfriend and that is not a very friendly thing to do.  you must not value his friendship to do something like that.  good grief!  you're only 11.  if i were you, i'd stay and make up for being not so kind to him.  keep the life and reputation you have acquired all these years.  tell the girl, you can only be pals cuz you've had this friend too long to let go.  she will definitely understand and maybe even admire you for being loyal to him.  then next summer, maybe you can take this friend and go visit your mom in AZ and have a great time and let him do whatever he wants to about his old girlfriend.  just make sure the two of you remain best buddy's.  now have a great year.
