writes:My best friend and I live about 1300 miles apart. I went to visit her in Florida for a weeks vacation. Things didn't go as well as I would have hoped. The problem was her husband hung on us every minute. I could tell she was uncomfortable and I was feeling like the third wheel. So anyway we had a bit of an uncomfortable conversation and I said to her "I don't want to argue with you, your my best bud, right?" and she said "I guess, I can't believe you don't have best friends back at home"!! Why would she make a comment like that? We have been best friends for 6 years. Thank you!

 Yeah it does. It sounds like she still wants to be your friend and the comment was probably made because she is frustrated with her life and not your friendship.
It does sound like she went through life too quickly but that doesn't mean that she still can't have fun. Your probably one of the only sources of fun that she has. I wouldn't take the comment too seriously and try to get her out and fun with just the two of you next time you can see her.

kelsi is verified as being by the original poster of the questionShe is very unhappy right now with life in general, her job & her marriage. She said she should not have gotten married so young, she didn't have a chance to really live her life because she was tied down with a husband and they had a child right away. She tells me that when she came up here to spend a week with me it was the happiest she had been in a very long time. She emailed me almost every day, but since I was down there she is emailing about every 4th day or so. I think she didn't like the fact that I wasn't falling all over her when I was down there. When it is just here and I we have a super laughing good time, but when somebody else is around we tone it down. I hope this helps answer your question.

It sounds like she may not be thinking of you as much as you are of her when you are so far apart. Does she put the effort in to keep in touch or is it all you. It sucks to lose a friend but sometimes people just drift apart and it is what my guess would be here.
