Sometimes it just takes reaching out! I have let some old friends know that I am seeking them out to converse with more regularly again, but I also say there’s no pressure to do so immediately or at all if there’s so hard feelings of sorts. (most of the time, people just get busy and/or burnt out, I don’t necessarily like feeling ignored but am also guilty of not immediately responding to some people when busy bc I didn’t see it or didn’t have energy to respond, so I try to be polite)

well, i have! all of our conversations are me reaching out first, double texting a few days later to get a quick response that feels like i’ve been brushed off. it’s been like this for months, at least since the fall. it’s so weird because we’ve never had an argument or disagreement. i do go to school in a different region than her but it’s so sucky to deal with it

Fair, sounds like an issue on her end

my college friends are trying to talk me out of sending a text asking what’s up and that things are different (obviously, friendship dynamics change and that’s normal, but this is overboard) and if i did anything … idk the right course of action AT ALL. of course i want my friend back but i deserve more than begging for friendship

Tbh I’m not saying I’m the best source but I too would probably just rip the bandage off, see how they feel and how to navigate moving forward
