this is kind of long.im 16. ok so I have had this friend that I have known since pre-k, and we used to be super cool. and now that its summer we had all these plans to have sleepovers and everything and just have fun. but we only have gotten together once since the beginning of summer and that was like for only like an hour and a half. and the first day we planned to have a sleepover and she said she would call when shes about to come over, but she never called that night. so i called the next day and we planned to have a sleepover that night but she didnt call again. after a while i just gave up and we havnt talked since like the last time (a couple of days ago) that i asked for her to come over. she never gave a reason for her not coming over. do you think she still likes me? I mean we've known eachother sing PRE-K! is it really that easy to just forget someone? please dont be sarcastic if you answer this because it herts to loose a friend....

Well honestly I don't think she has forgotten about you. I have been in a similar situation. I kept thinking my best friend since elementary was blowing me off because she'd always come up with some lame excuse not to hang out. To make a long story short, I confronted her about it, and of course I got shitty with her for not being a good friend, and turns out that the problem was not me, but problems she was going through. Sometimes people feel like they just want to be alone, or sometimes they feel like they are being smothered. After a while, some old friendships seem to get... old. And maybe she needs some time away from you to adjust with whatever problems and issues shes dealing with. You may be the underlying problem, or it may be something you don't even know about that has nothing to do with you. Either way, talk it through with her and find out the problem. Good luck! ~Sherah
