Sad over villagers leaving?

I still have my first two villagers. I wanted to make sure I got their photos before they moved out and since I got their photos they haven't asked to move out yet.
I'm going to be sad when they do end up moving out. I loved Fuchsia right away and Coach grew on my so quickly and now I love him too. It'll be sad to see them go.
Do you have to get to a certain point of friendship for the photos or is it just random?
 
Part of me wants to make all of my original villager stay. I'm a super sentimental person; I don't know if I can tell anyone to go, but at the same time, I would like to see new villagers. And, who am I to stop my villagers from living out their dreams?

Right now, I think that I would be ready to let Rocket go. Maybe Cookie and Ava as well, though I am less sold about letting them go at the moment. I guess we'll see the next time that they ask to leave!
 
It is always kinda sad seeing them in boxes, but meeting new villagers is part of what keeps me interested in the game.

I think it helps if you can find someone that wants to adopt them, though that's usually not possible with unpopular villagers. At the end of the day, I know it's all just computer code and algorithms, but it can be a bummer when they talk about their next island or next adventure and you know they're going to end up in the void.
 
Yeah, I've moved out two villagers that I'd grown to really like, and I still get melancholy about them on occasion. Fortunately neither of them were voided, which feels like a bit of grace at least. I made little tribute spots for both of them so that I can be reminded of their friendship and thankful for it.
 
Agnes was one of the two original villagers on my island. I knew that she would probably leave first because I hadn't talked to her in well over a week, but it was still sad to see her go. My response was so mean! I think my response was something like "Well, stay hydrated!" when she asked to leave. It's was sad to see her go, I didn't think I would feel as sad as I did, as silly as that may sound!
 
I understand how you feel. My first five villagers I really like, but I'm not too fond of their house interiors, so they may end up moving one day. I'll be sad when they do, but at the same time, it will be good to see some fresh faces. 🙂
 
Yes, bro, half the people that I've moved out I felt really sad for doing so.

But at the same time, I can't be all too sad about them leaving? They sound really excited to go out and try to find a new island to live on. That always makes me feel a little better.

Plus I rarely void my villagers, so I know they're actually going somewhere and not being erased from existence or at least not erased by me.
 
my 2 originals are Cobb and Paula. Cobb is still around but Paula moved. I didn't dislike her at all I just found her boring. Skye was my first villager to move and only after she asked twice in a row(I figured if she really wanted to go that bad I should let her). I couldn't wait for Colton to leave(my forced camper villager). He was replaced by Ellie and she is next on the list to move,mostly because i need a sisterly(for reactions) and I have 2 normals and Molly is not going anywhere. The most recent one hurt the most, that was Beau. I really like him but I had 3 lazies(and i needed a snooty,also for reactions) so someone had to go. I was sad but I offered him on this forum and the person who took him said he's one of her dreamies so I feel like he got a good home. I really like my new snooty Soleil(who I also got on this site) and I'm hoping to Get Cherry or Frita for my sisterly.
 
I felt the same way when I let Phoebe go. However, that time I felt it's a thing I must do so she can get her original home, not a basic starter home. I didn't even think about finding her a good home because I was dumb :cry: I hope she found a good home and is happy just like when she was with me
 
i feel this. i haven’t had too many villagers move out but i definitely miss some of them like julia and bertha - i knew they weren’t permanent but it’s still kind of bittersweet to see them go aha ;w;
 
You have to get to a certain level of friendship with them and after that you have a chance of them randomly giving you their photo.
Thank you

I didnt expect to feel as sentimental as I did as in the back of my mind I'm going it's only a game 😂. Then again I'm also still in lockdown so this is pretty much my life playing out at the minute...
 
When Kidd moved in (forced campsite villager) I decided I'd let him go when he asked, but him talking about leaving Evershine after I agreed still hurt a bit.
 
I liked Henry a lot, but when he asked to move out I let him go because I already had Zell as a smug and my step sister really wanted him. When I saw Henry in boxes though, I got kinda sad. He was my first campsite visitor and was SUPER tight with Claudia. Plus I coordinated wrong with my step sister, and he never ended up moving into her island. I actually found Dom shortly after, but he didn’t fill the same void. I have a hard time feeling attached to common “dreamies” because they feel less personal to me. In the end I regret moving Henry out, at least before getting his photo, but stuff happens.
