Hello, this may sound strange but me and friend are going through a weird phase, i am mostly nice to my friend and will do anything to make her smile because i am a nice person.We are typical best friends i tell her EVERYTHING, and i always remeber her functions and stuff to do with music and things, but this kindness is never returned she has never remembered my birthday never comes to my functions never invites me to her house, never calls me back when i ask her and will never have my back even though i have hers....

there is a school trip that she is going on Tuesday and i'm not so do you think this is a good oppurunity to forget my friend and move one and find new ones?Or just hopes that she changes...

By the way i have known her for 4 years..

MissKate agony auntOkay.

I understand this may be hard for you as you have known your friend for four full years.

Now, your friend is not a mind reader.

She may need you to talk to her.

She might not listen, and she might get a little upset, but nothing will change if you don't clear the air.

However, i do think that it is important to have more friends, even if they are not as close to you or as special.

Take your time, and over time i am sure you will work through this!

Good Luck!

Kate

Dazzerg agony auntHas she always been like this or has she recently changed?? If she has always been like this then I would tend to think it was time to move on but if this is a recent development then it maybe that she has something on her mind and you might want to try talking to her to find out if everything is ok first. Good luck :).

If you are a sparrow ,don't be friends with a hawk. You will just be in the food chain.

Choose your friends wisely .

A good friend is like fine wine, they age in taste and sweetness.

soldolly agony auntIf this has been going on for 4 years it is not a wierd phase, it is the way of ur so called friendship. You are a giver and she is a taker some friend huh. Stop phoning, stop inviting her to functions and to your home, she may just realise what a good friend she is loosing before it is to late and start to call you.
