Myrmidon Posted July 9, 2014 Posted July 9, 2014 I was really good friends with her for about 7 years. Then about 2 years ago she started ignoring me. I tried to talk to her a few times at school and she wasn't being mean about it or anything, but she almost seemed embarrassed to know me. We hadn't been fighting about anything that I can remember, and it just seems strange that she would do this. I tried texting her, but she didn't respond. I've made other friends, but I can't seem to get over the fact that my best friend thinks I'm really weird and that she can't be seen talking to me or something. What do you think I should do?

People change and grow apart. You didn't do anything wrong here. She may not be able to tell you she doesn't want to be friends anymore, so she's chosen the easiest way to deal with this to avoid any emotional talks or drama and that's just not replying back to you. Don't waste your energy on someone who isn't interested in keeping in touch. I know it hurts to lose a friend, we've all been through it but you have other friends who genuinely care about you so focus on them. 1
preraph Posted July 9, 2014 Posted July 9, 2014 I had a friend who became sort of snobby at a certain age and started hanging out with really bad snobs. I was still kind of a tomboy and not all girly all the time, rode horses, etc. and one of the last times I visited her (not at the same school), she had her snobby friend there and I could just tell this wasn't going to last. Also, sometimes when people get new friends, they may be embarrassed by what all you know and might tell about them, so they keep you separate. I know I sort of do that with my sister, because she thinks it's fun to embarrass me. So even though she and I are friends as adults, she rarely ever gets invited to my outings with friends. People change as they grow up. You lose friends and make new ones. You hve to learn to let it go.
Talukdar Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 It happened to me before. My best buddy ignored me when I was 14-15. All you have to do is stay in touch. No need to hurry or gave her too much attention but just stay in touch. She will come back within two or three years.
