Friendship
My best friend only fews me as an option and it all started with her and my bf fighting. I would constantly defend her to him, but today her and a few of her other friends made fun of me. For not finishing a mosaic on time. It’s just last year me and this girl we were the only senoirs left and now we r just drifting. I’m happy that she had friends now, but I don’t think she wants to be friends with me anymore…and it hurts.
Friendships do change over time sometimes. People that we were friends with at younger ages can grow further apart as we get older and sometimes those relationships stay like that and sometimes they come back later in life. It's all a normal part of growing up, but that doesn't make it any easier to experience when you are experiencing it.
Maybe you could ask her if anything is going on that she wants to talk about. Maybe say it seems like your friendship is strained right now and you wanted to see what (if anything) happened to make it appear this way. You could also let her know how you felt when she was making fun of you for not getting your project done on time.
You could also try to spend time with her apart from your bf if they don't seem to be getting along. Not all people do. In any case, if you wish to talk about this further, please chat or call us.
It sounds like you're going through a tough time with your friendship, and I'm really sorry to hear that. It can be painful to feel like you're being treated as an option rather than a priority, especially after all the support you've given her. It’s understandable to feel hurt when someone you care about makes fun of you, particularly over something like a mosaic project. Friendships can change, and it’s hard to see someone you were once close to drifting away, especially after having shared so much.
It’s great that she has new friends, but it’s also important to prioritize relationships that make you feel valued and respected. Have you thought about talking to her about how you feel? Sometimes, opening up can lead to a better understanding between friends. Remember, it’s okay to seek out other friendships that lift you up and make you feel good about yourself. You deserve to have friends who appreciate you for who you are. You’re brave !
This is a safe space to share what's on your mind and to get support from real people.
