11 year friendship finished not coping

11 year friendship finished not coping

My best friend of 11 years ended our friendship 9 weeks ago. He wont answer 2 sms asking why. Usually i am ok but for some reason i cant stop crying today. I had to go somewhere we visited together and broke up. I dont want to be like this. I still see him and am ok but cant cope today

Re: 11 year friendship finished not coping

I am so sorry this happened @hugbear. This all must be incredibly confusing for you... it's so hard when someone stops communicating and doesn't explain why. How you're feeling is more than understandable, it's a lot for the body and mind to adjust to. I wonder if their actions could be the result of some things we don't know about? 💛

I think @NightFury, @Captain24, @MissGremlin would be great people to talk about this with. 🥰

In the meantime, please use the space to process your thoughts and feelings as you need.

And please be kind to yourself - know that you're not alone (even if it feels that way right now). 🫶

Re: 11 year friendship finished not coping

Hello @hugbear, I'm really sorry for what you're going through and I can understand how hard it is. I had a best friend of many years and in an instant she ended the friendship with no explanation. Not knowing can leave us questioning so much, whether we did something wrong or if there's something going on for them.

For me I tried to remind myself that I'd have good days and bad days, there were days that I just cried from missing all the moments we had together, then there was other days where I was ok. It takes time to process things and there's no right or wrong way of doing so.

Please be gentle with yourself, we're here for you ❤️.
