SpiralOut Posted December 20, 2015 Posted December 20, 2015 I feel a bit stupid posting this. When I was younger I used to be quite good at making friends, and at keeping them. Anyway, long story short, I don't have much confidence when it comes to this sort of thing. There are three girls I occasionally spend time with. Normally we all meet up together, but I've also met up with each of them one-on-one. I seem to click most with this one woman. I haven't seen much of her lately; when we invite her to group things she declines. I think it's because she is pregnant and busy dealing with that, for example she declined a festival because she doesn't like walking too much right now. I know that she doesn't consider me a close friend since she invited one of us to her baby shower, but not me and the other girl. I don't take this personally. What is the best way to try and progress the friendship in this situation? I don't want to be needy or annoying, since obviously she has her own life and her own stuff going on. Would it be weird for me to invite her out for coffee, or should I just try to schedule another group event? We have each others phone number and are on FB. Should I just send her a message asking her how things are going? As you can probably tell, I have a fear of being annoying or of saying the wrong thing....
whichwayisup Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 How far along is she in her pregnancy? Give her a call, don't use fb. It's so non personal. Ask her to lunch, your treat.

She is around 5-6 months. We have never really talked on the phone before, only texted. I feel weird about calling her up totally out of the blue.
