majoy guy friend problems =[


Question Posted Sunday July 29 2007, 10:03 pm

alright, well my best guy friend is peter. actually, he USED to be my best guy friend. we got in this fight over something waay stupid, except i apologized and we made up - he said he was over it. yet, ever since then, it's like we're not even friends. we used to talk all the time about knida "deep" stuff and he used to confide in me. for some reason, i think he lost trust in me over something dumb. well, now he NEVER ims me and when i im him it's like we're making small talk and we hardly now eachother. it's so different and weird, and i want it to be back to how it used to be. he's stubborn though, and i don't know how to win him back - every time i talk to him he acts nice, but like we're not even friends. i want to gain his trust back and talk to him how we used to. how can i do this, or start to?

Guys are weird. My best friend is a guy and I've gone through similar things with him. I suggest you talk to him in person or on the phone so you can get more verbal (for example his tone of voice, hesitation) and non verbal (facial expressions, etc) clues about how he really feels, IM's can be misleading sometimes. Just be straight with him and tell him what you wrote in this question about how you feel like things have changed between you two. Also remind him that you are always there for him, maybe there is something else going on in his life and its causing him to isolate himself. Try to keep it casual and don't act overly worried when you talk to him so he doesn't feel overwhelmed.

Good luck!

Talk to him again about what you two were disagreeing over. There's probably something still bugging him. Ask him to tell you what's on his mind about it, and apologize for your behavior, you may have done something unintentionally.


Or, he could just be going through a phase, guys do that a lot [and so do girls for that matter]. Don't be nagging him constantly about it, he'll talk when he's ready. Oh, and if he's gotten a girlfriend since this all happened, he could be confiding in her & feel uncomfortable sharing so many things with you. Explore every angle before you jump to conclusions.
