I just realised that I should have put this in the family and friends section so feel free to move it mods.

I'm using a false name because I think this sounds kind of crazy, which is why I needed to come on here to get it off my chest rather than to DH who would just say "what are you talking about?" Plus the person I'm talking about could read this.

I met a new friend not long ago and I just felt like we really hit it off straight away. There felt like a real connection, to me anyway. I was really happy because I haven't had a great girly friend for ages. But lately I've felt a bit shut out by her. I know she's got a lot going on, but I also know that she's been making time for her other friends. How stupid does that sound? I sound like a jealous psycho girlfriend. Nothing's happened for her to be upset with me. Maybe she just didn't feel the same connection that I did. I guess I'll just have to wait and see how the friendship develops. You can't push these things.

Feels good to get it off my chest anyway. I think I'm just over reacting because I have PMT.

dont worry I used to always feel like that , I tend to give 110% to friendships work etc than get upset when i dont get it back, I am sure she is just very busy and even if she is not i am sure you are great person who can make more friends so you should not worry about it if you have done nothing obvious to upset her then just let things take there course.

i know what you mean. although im the lazy friend in my case. i made really good friends with someone on here. we are only online friends, but we talked all the time. since i got PG this time i have just zoned out way to much and it has been to long since i spoke to her now. i feel bad. but i just dont know what to talk about. cos all i do lately is complain about how sh!t i feel lol. but eh, im sure she will understand.

I have to admit, that when I read your post, my first thought was, please dont let this be a friend of mine that I have upset as I have had alot going on lately but caught up with some other friends this week.

All I can say is, if you are, I am so sorry! And if you arent, then I really hope your friend is able to understand that you are upset and would dearly love to see her. I have been in this position before myself and I admit, it is a lonely place to be.

i thought the same thing

but really, if you feel this way there is nothing wrong with that.

i know for me i find it hard to keep up with everyone and sometimes i will have a friend who really needs me at that time. like i do now, one of my friends has just broken up with her husband and i have been spending alot of time with her, also my best friend is looking at moving out my way so we have been house hunting together.
maybe your friend has the same problems.

why dong you ask her to go out for coffee or something and if she is a busy person give her a few day notice....i know i feel like dirt when i have to tell a friend no sorry im busy.

I was about to type the EXACT same thing.

Maybe putting it in your normal user name may have helped your friend realise what was happening. Im sure, if shes anything like me, she isnt doing it on purpose at all! I hope its not me, I could never do that to a friend.. Not intentionally ..

Hey, I feel the same ALL the time! I rarely EVER make first contact with a friend, I never really call or email or whatever them, I wait for them to contact me Which is stupid I know, I have lost friends that way! I feel really nervous contacting people and think that I'm hassling them.... aahhhhh I'm just a freak
Anyway, point is, your friend could be like me, just take the first step and reach out and contact her...... if you felt a connection then I'm sure she did too!
Hope you get to catch up with her soon

K, my two cents...... Real friends will always be there, others fade away..

You know the saying... your in someones life for a season and a reason or a life time.. well I kinda forget the saying but...ya know what I mean.... I think you have some friends for a short time who were sent to show or teach u something, then u have other friends who will be their for a life time.

A true friendship isn't hard work, comes from love and is something you can't force. If your trying to hard it wasn't meant to be.

Maybe let her know how you feel cause she may not realise.
