Why did these relationships turn out oddly?

Tagged as: Friends, Troubled relationships<< Previous question   Next question >>
Question - (28 February 2012) 2 Answers - (Newest, 29 February 2012)
A female United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

1. a man was very nice/polite to a woman for the first 2 years.

2. this woman is well liked by their mutual friends.

3. the woman becomes friends with a few other women in the common circle.

4. one of the women she is close with gets along well with her and they always laugh and spend time together. sometimes the man would even make jokes about how they are alike and joke around.

5. as times goes by, the man starts to act stand-offish to the woman, who doesn't really seem too particular about anyone. she is indifferent towards him and sometimes will talk to him if she has to.

6. as time goes by, they both interact the same way, until it looks uncomfortable.

7. she then became close friends with another woman in the group who share the same illness.

8. eventually, that friendship wains away. the same eventually happened with the first woman she was friends with.

9. she don't seem rattled by that either. still she acts indifferent.

10. oddly, within a few years, it turns out that these two close female friends became best buddies with the man and always run arans for him whenever he ask them. he also allows them to get involved in activities to stop them from getting bored (they have stress issues, which was not present when they were friends with the woman) the first female still talks with the woman, but only on occasions. they are not as close. although they still share the same interest and have similar personalities. It has cause a hurtful divide.

11. any reason why these relationship turned so oddly in a short time without any obvious incident?

This is verified as being by the original poster of the question

the woman is not so much indifferent to them in the friendship. she is only indifferent to the changing behavior of the other friends. but the man and her act very strangely with each other. its like awkward interaction with the tow of them. silence between them.

A female reader, anonymous, writes (29 February 2012):

Because the woman always seems indifferent.

If she never reaches out to the others, if she never puts forth effort to express that she liked their companionship, if she expresses nothing more than indifference to them...they have inferred that she is indifferent to having them as companions.
