    Friends not speaking
    Hi,
    Well I have this friend, Mark, he is 3 years older than me and I met him through my older sister.

    We started talking and we have a lot in common. He was there for me when I was depressed, bulimic and suicidal and he helped me come to terms with a few deaths. The main reason he has been able to help me with all these things is because he went through something like it as well and together we've been there for each other.

    Over the past year we became closer but in the past month we haven't spoken one word to each other and I don't know why. We went from speaking everyday to not speaking at all, and at first it was because he and my sister had some fight, because my sister was worried about me, and mark was the only one I spoke to because he understood, but somehow it got out of control and they had a bit of a falling out but everything is good now.

    And then it was because exams were on so we were both really busy and didn't have time to talk, but now exams are over and we're still not speaking.

    He hasn't been there for me much lately and he broke a really important promise and because my pa has just died I really need him there, he saved me from a deep depression and stopped me from my self-harming ways. Now that were not speaking I feel like my life is coming apart again and I'm starting to do things that I know I will regret.

    If anyone has any advise or thoughts then I would really appreciate it.

    He could feel that you may be growing to dependent on him
    Have you tried asking him lately why and he just ignores or avoids you?
