Always tell your friends you love them, even during the hard times.

С тем как становишься старше, всё сложнее знакомиться с новыми людьми и поддерживать настоящую, искреннюю дружбу.

на удивление, не имел почти ничего общего со мной, но наши письма были настолько длинными, что нам требовались дни, чтобы прочитать и ответить.

Things go much differently for now. The google translator is not my friend anymore at least xD
