Not directed at OP but we gotta normalize it being ok for you to be the one to reach out. We see people blame each other for not reaching out ruining friendship too much. Ok you’re thinking about it if u wanna be friends it’s not cringe to reach out
i stopped texting my childhood best friend first. that was a year ago. she hasn’t tried reached out in a year.

Yes but also if you’re the only one ever reaching out and they NEVER text first then it’s ok to stop texting

Situation to situation. It might be that they just expect you to reach out because you’ve made them used to it. Or your schedule it more busy. Or they’re just really debilitated by anxiety. If it’s an issue, you need to talk to them about it. Communication is key, even with friends!

Hiiii girl like I said not directed @ u just something I’ve seen recently that’s been frustrating. So sorry you’ve had to deal with that, losing a long time friend is so heartbreaking! Hope you’ve been able to move on
