well ex friendship anyway


Question Posted Monday July 23 2007, 10:56 am

hey everybody. well my friend who I'll call Hannah who I met in fifth grade and I were super close. We had the same best friends. Then in sixth grade Hannah moved into her moms house in a different and deserted all of us completely. She made new friends which is normal but then she forgot about us except for one girl who I'll call Emma that I'm not even friends with. Now we're all going into eight grade and Hannah might be moving back. My friends are all going to forgive her with the exeption of my best friend Rachel but she'll probably forgive her pretty quick cause shes to nice to hold a grudge. I don't know what to do cause I'm still really hurt about her forgetting about us so is it totally wrong of me to not want to forgive her without at least an apoligy. I mean do you really think it would be normal for us to just go back to being best friends after all that has happened. I didn't find out from her that she might be moving back, I found out from another girl in her town! Any help would be great. Sorry it's so long ♥

First off don't be mean to her, but that doens't mean you have to rush back to her side. And although she deserted you she might not have meant to and don't expect that she's mean. Just think to yourself how much of an effort did you make to keep in contact with her, maybe this "emma" girl did make a big effort. Start off fresh see if you still share interests ad once you've planted that base again tell her how you feel

You can forgive but can never forget. I don't think yall will just go back to being the best friends. Friends grow out of their groups and like to make new friends but I don't think she forgot about yall, she just likes that she has some other friends to hang out with. I think yall will be friends but just not hanging out as much, just maybe the occasional hey hows it going how are you doing type of thing. It'd be safe if you just keep it that way, like if yall run into each other in the halls just limit how yall talk to each other, like hey hows it going and go back to your group. It maybe hard to get used to, but it is common that friends sometime other friends to hang out with.

Oh wow. It's definitely fine to not want to forgive her right away. But you can't be too mean to her either about it because she might not have completely forgotten about you. You do deserve an apology from her, though, and should find a way to get that apology.

I don't think it'd be normal for you to just go back to being best friends, because friendships like that take time. The fact that you found out from someone else in town isn't really fair to you either, but you have to think of it from her view. Maybe she was forced to move & didn't know about it before it happened.

In 4th grade I switched schools & couldn't tell any of my best friends because I didn't know about it until the summer & didn't really know what was going on. My dad had decided it for me. Just remember that & ask her about it. Tell her you wish you had been able to keep in touch with her.

5th grade means you guys probably weren't too into the computer & phone, etc. Maybe Emma's the only one she could get in touch with because it's the only number she had? I don't know. Just keep in mind that it might not have fully been her choice.

Be nice to her if / when she comes back, if possible. If she's not so nice back, the just drop her as a friend. I don't see why she wouldn't be nice, but whatever. Good luck with the situation and I hope the friendship works out.

:]
