It amazes me what some people will do when they don't want you to go. I personally would try to spend every single minute with the person. Others though, snap on the you for reasons such as eating the last oreo yogurt. Or take things that they know mean a lot to you, hide them somewhere in the house, and play dumb when you are frantically searching for the item. And yet, others make things up inside their head to give them a reason to be angry or upset with you. Even though in the back of their mind they are almost 100% sure that it is untrue. They ignore you completely and attempt to convince others to do the same. I guess these things somehow make it easier to let you go. I suppose they wouldn't be too upset to see you leave if they are unhappy with you. It also is a way to push you away quite some time before you actually leave so they have a sence of what it will be like when you are gone. But, yet, sometimes they realize that what they are doing isn't how they want you to remember them by, or leave the situation how it is. Or, they truely don't want you to go and want to show you some how of what their true feelings are. Some get you a funny looking pink and purple neck pillow with a dog head and tail. They picked it out all by themselves, payed for it with their own money even though they don't have much, and got one just like it but in blue and green so you two could have the same thing. So they are staring up at you beaming with pride and love for you waiting to you see what your reaction will be and if you will take it as a gift of forgiveness. Even if you think it is really corny and can't think of a time when you would actually use it, you act so excited and overjoyed about the funny shaped dog gift and watch their smile grow. Others "actidentally" let their anger slip and ask you to lunch or to hang out. And others IM you or email you of good times and funny memories. You never really know how much someone will miss you until they actually realize that you are leaving. And you never knew how much you will miss them when you realize that you are actually leaving.
