    My "best friend" barely ever answers my texts or texts me.
    We went to the same middle school but not high school. We used to text a lot in ninth grade and kind of in tenth grade. But now we're in eleventh grade and she never texts me and I always have to text her and she barely ever responds. Also I always make the plans to hang out and she never does. So I stopped asking and I got tired of never getting replies and waited for her to text me and after 2 months I finally decided to text her. I understand that she's busy but I almost never hear from her what should I do?

    Have you talked to her lately? Does she still consider you her best friend?

    I texted her merry Christmas and she said thanks you too and I texted her yesterday and she didn't respond. I think she does.

    I think you should talk to her. Make a phone call. If she isn't returning texts very often, and doesn't initiate getting together, she may have moved on.

    She's never initiated getting together I just got tired of always being the one. If I call her or text her what should I say?

    I'd call her and tell her how you see things. Let her know that these things bother you. It's up to you to decide what you want to do about your friendship. Do you have close friends at your high school?

    Call her whenever you want to. If you are off school, maybe this is a good time.

    Ask if she is busy, then tell her you would like to talk about something important. That should get her attention.

    All right. I think it's school though because she has a lot of homework and sports after school.

    I think you should go to her house and ask for her. Then, you guys could talk it out if her friendship really means a lot to you. See what she says :) hope this helped
