16 Answers My friend and I used to be so close with one another. We loved each other to pieces, and she would always put me before any other guy or any other friend in general. We never lied to each other and we never kept secrets from each other. But lately we've been getting into arguments about the smallest, dumbest things. It's been tearing us apart, and it feels like she's come to trust me less and less.
Most of the arguments have been based around how she's been taking me for granted already. She treats me like crap, and always expects me to stay with her. When I used to leave her, she would get sad and say she 'needed me in her life'. But lately, she doesn't even care if I'm gone or misses me. She played a huge role in my life and I just don't want to lose her. She's like my little sister, and I never want to have to say goodbye to her, but this is getting too far. I'm getting less and less respect from her every day.
Knowing her, she 'jumps' from guy to guy for friendships. For a while, I was genuinely her #1 guy friend, but as time has gone on, I've become less special. Nowadays there's nothing that separates how she treats me from how she treats her other guy friends. She even treats some of the others better. She lies to me, hides from me, and won't even let me touch her or be close to her, like we both used to do when we first met.
I'm so confused. I don't know what to do to get my best friend back. Thread Summary |

She's constantly there to remind me. Plus I would, but it's not gonna matter. She's just gonna forget about me, and I'll be the one left with the scars. I just want a chance to make things right with her. We've made up before, and she's changed for the better, before. But idk what's goin on now. This is my senior year, and if I don't make up with her properly, then I'll lose this girl forever. | | |  | Senior Member | |

I'm struggling to understand what you want from us here. You're either her friend or you're not. You can't force her into making you the most important thing in her life. | | |  | Junior Member | |

| | | Yeah.. That's how it used to be though. :/ All that you've said definitely makes sense. I'll figure something out. I'll probably just ask her to make a final choice and leave it at that. Thanks for the advice though | | |  | Senior Member | |

| | | Holy crap, this sounds just like my situation, except I fell for my closest friend. I understand how it doesn't feel as special anymore, how certain things have changed, now you are left saying "that's how it used be." I ended up leaving my friend because one, I couldn't just be friends with a girl I was in love with, two, things changed a lot. I didn't feel like I was that special person to her anymore. Before you give her an ultimatum just remember the consequences, because when I run into my friend I can tell it's awkward for her, and she's cold towards me. I don't know if things will change betweens us, so what I say for you to do is just do you and let your friend do her. Let her jump from guy to guy, if she's being ungrateful you just fall back and keep it moving and she may or may not come back. Like Dani said you might make the same bond but with a different person, maybe that's what your friend is doing right now. I know it sucks because it feels like you're losing her but if you give her an ultimatum like I did you might never have her in your life again, especially since you think of her as a great person. | | |  | Senior Family & People Expert | |

She is what she is. A person that goes from guy to guy in a friendly way. Accept it and be grateful to your time, but it is time to let her go and not be stuck now that she has changed her feelings and no longer gives you that attention that you are wanting back.
Sorry, the problem isn't her its you. She is doing her thing, her way and enjoying it, and unfortunately for you she sits next to you in class. A constant reminder of what was, but is no more. Its challenging for sure, but you have to keep doing your thing until the inevitable sinks into your head. She was just a passing fancy, here today gone tomorrow. Or at least out of reach.
For now you just have to struggle thru seeing her as a class mate, let her do her thing, and you do yours without her. | | | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | | Add your answer here.
