Friendship Problem.

!Shogie-Muffin Aug 20, 2012 Hobbyist Digital Artist

I have a very close friend of mine. She's my best friend and during the school year we would spend all our time together and we would talk to each other every day after school on Skype.
Now we talk lesser and lesser, and I call her every day and she never answers. That's normal, but she's always busy. I'm always the one to start the conversation first and she hangs out with her other friends. I text her, and I know she's going to have to check her phone, but she never replies back. I really don't want to lose this friendship, but if I keep bugging her then she would get annoyed. She says I call at the worst times.
I would talk to her about it but I'm just scared. We had a couple of feeling talks but those were hard enough to get through.
I don't want her to drift away because our friendship was real.

I might come off as immature, so I apologize in advance.

I agree with these other people. Give her her space. After some time, try talking to her again and voice out your feelings about how you two are drifting apart. Tell her you don't wanna lose her and that she's your best friend. I guess the one thing you have to find out is if you're her friend still. Then do what you can to mend the friendship. If it goes out well, then awesome. But if the friendship gets worse or if she pushes you away or it simply cannot be brought back to what it once was before, then I must say all there is left is to let go. People come and go into our lives. She's your best friend and man, that's tough. I have a best friend, too and we don't see each other anymore. All we have left is mere communication. And somehow, I feel that our friendship's weakening, too. Bottom line, I can keep going on like this for ages, but it's up to you to decide what you wanna do. I wish you the best of luck.

well im not one for friendship advice but like you i had friends that i used to spend time together with too. however as time passed we (as in all my friends) found out that the world is in fact BIG. my friends grew up and found other hobbies and other people to hangout with and so on and so forth. so i thought to myself maybe its time i did the same. finally it got to where the people who i thought were my friends turned out to be complete strangers. if your friend is forgetting about you and isnt responding back it could mean bad things or your firend like my friends found other people to associate with and its best to do the same. however in my case i chose to be alone and truth be told im rather enjoying the peace and solitude.
i know i know i shouldnt have bore'd you with my story but i thought if you heard it from another person whos seen what happens in a situation like this it might encourage you to try the same. who knows maybe the new crowd or friend your friend is hangin with is the same person you might meet. things have a scary way of reconnecting old fellowships...or is it friendship or are they the same thing?

again sorry for my pointless blanter but i hope you find a solution and i hope it works out for the best. Good luck.

show up at her house and see what's going on

Maybe she's tired of you being her friend and she's over you. Let her do what she wants, there is nothing you can do about that right!

Sometimes the more you try to pull a person the more he or she pushes away from you. I think you had done enough. People appears and dissapears from your life and sometimes you dont know why. My advice is to stop calling, now is her turn; if she doesnt... well, move on. Frinships are not always a green and nice field.

Sounds like you need Twilight Sparkle.

sorry. I had to.
like everyone else is saying, just give her space, maybe eventually she'll start talking to you again. :3

Don't push the relationship... it will only make things worse... just focus on positives!

Like Estrago1 said, you should give her some space. You can get tired of constantly being around someone after a certain amount of time. Space is essential for any kind of relationship you have with a person. If you're that concerned about your friendship with her then perhaps you should have one of your "feeling talks" with her in order to see where you two stand; although, if you're too afraid of talking to her about it, then giving her space and finding other people to hang out with or a hobby to keep yourself occupied with would be the better option.

My advice would be to give her a little space. It may be hard at first, but it's for the good of the friendship. You should start hanging out with other friends, or maybe get a new hobby; something you can spend time on.
