best friends forever ?


Question Posted Monday July 21 2008, 5:58 pm

ok so ive had this BEST FRIEND since like the 6th grade (i am now going into the 9th). we were inseperable forever. until i had to move to germany. but i came back and everything and we would always talk on the phone and/or make plans. but she always had something to do and shed tell me the day before we were supposed to go wherever we go. or she just tells me straight up that she cant go because her mom has a new boyfriend and theyre trying to bond (the bf thing is true, im not so sure about the bonding thing). i always tell her to call me when she can do something and she says she will. but she hasnt called me since i came back which was in may. its not like i stalk her or anything, i just call her occassionally-maybe twice or three times a week. and lately she hasnt been answering my phone calls and it takes her forever just to call me back. im so sorry this was so long =[
please help me !!!!!! =/

First of all, I'm sorry to hear about your situation. But it is impossible to know what she is thinking if you don't say straight up how you are feeling. I mean, if you moved away for a while then she clearly had to move on -- she can't stay attached to some one that isn't always there. Sometimes people just drift away, but if the friendship is really this important to you then you definitely need to be completely honest and ask her whats going on -- don't beat around the bush.

Well, I think that it's best that you find a new friend. There is a high chance that she's avoiding you. I'm pretty sure that you could find another friend. But if you really want her friendship, maybe go over to her house and talk to her about it. Tell her how you feel. Maybe she doesn't want to be best friends anymore. If so, ask if you guy can still be friends.

Hoped I helped & Good luck

Hey babe :)
The only reason I could come up with is.. that your friend is just moving on, and changing a bit. When you grow up, your relationships with people tend to either grow closer or apart.

In your case I think she may just be pulling away.
I know its hard, but since she's not returning your phone calls, maybe just stop calling her. If she was really your best friend, she would get back to you ASAP.

But before you stop talking to her.. maybe try talking to her about how you feel, and how she doesn't seem the same. Maybe she feels that way too and you guys can work it out.

Another thing I forgot to mention is..
while you were in germany, she was thus forced to make new friends, and maybe she made new friends? Which doesn't mean she can't be best friends with you, but you know? Maybe you two just grew apart.

But I hope everything works out for you hun.
