Recently, a friend I have been close to for a very long time “ended” our friendship.
We could both see it coming a mile away, whenever we chatted I felt I was treading on egg shells trying to avoid a reaction and we disagreed on many subjects where I was ok to disagree but she could not accept it. It came to a point where I asked for a time out, told her I would rather we did not fight and that she could take as much time as needed to let go of what was irritating her.
With only days away till giving birth to her first baby I don’t think there will be a reunion of sorts. She has created and achieved what she was after, she is happy, whereas I have chosen to take the long road, a path of self discovery and personal development and I don’t think she enjoys chatting or connecting about this any more.
It’s different to dating a guy, they come and go till you meet the right one. When it’s your best friend that knowledge of always having someone to talk and share the good times, as well as the bad.
So why can’t I just let go? Why am I thinking about her? How can I just get on with it? (and yes I did delete her as a friend off Facebook).
Wondering what others have experienced, and how they have overcome breaking up with their “best friends”.
