Question Posted Monday May 26 2008, 2:27 pm

Okay, I guess you could say my best friend and I "broke up."
That sounds stupid, but it's the best description.

It was because of her a guy and I couldn't handle it, and I tried to just get everything out there, but eventually she chose him over me.

Well, we've been best friends since 1st grade, and I got way to attatched, to the point where she was basically my only friend.

So, I tried to ask her if she like wants to be best friends, not that we have to if she says yes, but if she even feels like she misses me I guess.

I didn't get an answer, and I don't know if that was because she's just trying to forget of she means no.

But if she meant no, she should tell me.

Well now we talk in the only class we have together, well kinda we say like things but not like best friends.

And she seems like she's fine, but so do I, so I don't know if she is fine, or if she's like faking it like me.

Well, I wrote a letter, and didn't read it twice because I wanted it to be like raw and not fake.

I'm not sure if I want to send it or not, becuase I'm not sure if I can trust her anymore, and I'm not sure what will happen afterwards.

I'm trying to move on, but it sucks.
Should I send it?
Should I say something?
I don't think I could though.

We don't have to be best friends like we were, I just want to know if she even wants to try, you know?

hmm.
15, f if that matters for some reason.

Do give her the letter. I am confused - how do you feel that she is chosing this guy over you? You both are growing up now. Boys to come into play. It seems like there may be a slight sign of jealousy because you no longer have all of her attention anymore. This is a normal reaction and it's ok. Since you were best friends, that means that there is still a bond there between the two of you. She may feel some distance from you as well, so work it out and remain friends. Who is she going to talk to when he makes her mad! "smile". Don't be selfish by distancing yourself because your friend is in a relationship. If nothing has been done to you that betrays your trust in her, you should have no trust issues. If the friendship is over because of other reasons differing from her being involved with a relationship then maybe you should think about the friendship and know that just because you are someone's best friend it doesn't mean that they are your best friend. If she has never betrayed you or hurt you besides having a boyfriend, then it's time to grow up and be happy if your friend is happy. I am sure she would be happy for you.

Good luck dear heart!

i think it's clearly bothering you. so send the letter, just explain the way you're feeling. she is a girl, chances re she feels the way you do. it's hard to balance a friendship when you have a boyfriend, it's a delicate situation. but like you said you were friends since first grade, why throw it away now. baby steps. take baby steps.
