pretty much best friend..now gone


Question Posted Wednesday May 14 2008, 9:55 pm

ok so me and my friend havent been speaking to each other for 2 months and we've been good friends for 5 years. i dont even remember the reason why we arent talking and i miss her but the last thing i said to her was that if she wanted us to be friends she had to be the one to talk to me (because i had been feeling like she was kind of distant for a while). i even asked her what her problem was and she would always say she was fine.
i miss her and it's hard to believe that she wants this friendship to be over after five long years.

what should i do?

5 years is a long time to be friends. personally i would speak to her first. i just recently got into a huge fight with my best friend we didnt talk for about 4 months (friends of 3 years) but i called her and explained to her i feel it was stupid for us to hold grudges and that we both were being stupid she totally agreed were still not as close but i took me and her fighting as a positive because im a people person so i met and got close to some other people i might have not have gotten close to cause i spent so much time with her so try to find new companions but its always good to just squash anything you two had and make sure you two understand why you were fighting maybe youll be best friends again.

WOW! 2 months thats a while. Maybe thats it. {QUOTE:} YOU DON'T EVEN REMEMBER THE REASON WHY WE AREN'T TALKING...
Have you told her you miss her and that you didn't really mean that she had to talk to you first to continue the friendship that you only want to give her some thinking room. She is probely feeling distant because you told her you wanted it that way and didn't give her time to get over the problem. It might just have been a problem she didn't want to discuss with you. If she said she was fine what makes you think the friendship is over! You are making her feel like its over...

she probably thinks since you said that, that maybe you dont wanna be her friend. what i would do, is keep calling her until shes willing to talk to you. my friend and i were mad at eachother for a long time. so i kept calling her and got on her family's last nerves...but she eventually was willing to talk to me.

maybe thats the case with chickie-poo! ok well, i hope it works out for you!

take care!
