You can nurture your own new "Littles" and see where that goes. And FWIW I'm still in contact with my own "Big" (from back when dinosaurs roamed the Earth) and I have no idea what happened to my "Littles". Time has a way of doing that, you know.

Exactly. A Big is a mentor - she shows you the ropes, gets you acclimated, helps you learn what you need to know, etc. You don't need the tutelage anymore; you're an active member. You'll always have the relationship, but the relationship has changed. You're equals now. That doesn't mean that the love and closeness has changed.
It's your turn to nurture a new member(s). Take what she taught you and bring your little(s) into the fold. Make your Big proud.
