what do you do when i friend says they want to be left alone
Question Posted Sunday May 20 2007, 8:36 pm
yesterday my best friend was really upset and she said she wanted to be left alone..should i do anything and if so what? i feel kinda bad just letting her be alone. help please?
the same thing happened to my guy friend. what should i do?
As far as your other friend goes, don't try to push her into talking to you, tell her that you respect her and will give her space, but that you'll always be there for her saying everything will be okay! And never feel bad, every once in a while, people need there space...trust me. If you push to hard, you might start upsetting her even more.
Don't worry, once she gets her space/time; she'll be cool again. Everybody needs a break...its in our nature.

With the girl. Sometimes they say they want to be left alone, and they think they really do. Do just think. But when your gone sh emight feel like shes too alone and no one cares about her. But On the other hand if you bother her she might think your annoying and really just want to be left alone. Try just leaving her alone for a while and calling her or talking to her. Juts asking if shes ok. And if she wants to talk. if she truelly dosen't. Just let her breath. [ Noyeti's advice column | Ask Noyeti A Question ]

That's about it. You should leave her alone and don't feel bad about it. Sometimes you're not in the mood to have somebody around. Maybe there's something going wrong with her and she needs time to think it out alone. [ queenhearts's advice column | Ask queenhearts A Question ]

I know it may be tough, but she is probably going through something tough, and if she wants to talk to you, she will. Just let her know that you understand that she wants to be alone, but that you are there if she wants to talk, (and tell her you'd keep it confidential).
