Have you ever drifted apart with your friends?

...See more I recently stopped being friends with one of my closest friends. It's not like we grew apart but I just made another close friend. One of the reasons why we started drifting apart is that I only have one class with her while I have like 6 classes with my new close friend. There's more backstory behind that but if I summarize it, it'll be that. My question is that is it normal to drift apart with your best friend? How do you deal with it? Have you guys been in the same/similar situation? It would help a lot if I heard other people's experiences. Thanks!

...See more I recently started growing apart with my best friend of 5 years. Is it normal for best friends to grow apart? We only have one class together so we don't talk as much anymore. I just miss her and want to talk to her but she doesn't want to. She told me that she wants to pretend to be friends. And that our friendship is over.

Friend Anxiety

...See more I got into an argument with my friend and I've been having anxiety and overthinking about it. Basically what happened was, I was inviting my friend, Sky, to this group hangout. (we never hung out as a group before but we're all mutual friends) Then, she said "that's rare. I never get invited to these things. You hung out with them without me once. oh well, I don't care" I felt bad because it seems like she was hurt that she was left out. But I couldn't remember the last time I hung out with the group. So, I asked my other friend if we ever hung out as a group before. She said no, we never did. We planned to but it got canceled and Sky was invited that time too. She's even in the group chat. After about two hours, I brought it back up again (my bad on my part because she said she didn't care and I should've just moved on) I said that we never hung out as a group and it's all a misunderstanding. Then she said "no, you guys did. you have a bad memory" I guess I got offended by that so I said it again but more aggressively. Then, we went back and forth about whether we hung out as a group or not. It's been two days now since we stopped talking to each other. I want to apologize but I'm afraid that she'll ignore me. It's kinda her thing and that's her personality. What I'm thinking now is whether we'll ever talk again and move on. If she's still mad at me.

Saying goodbye

...See more I move a lot so I switch school mutltiple times. When I told my friends that I was leaving, one of my friend started crying and I didn't cry at all. Everyone was joking that I wasn't crying at all and I said "I'm used it. I move a lot" Was I being insenstitive? It's been like 4 years since that happened but I can't forget it. Do you guys think that my friend still remembers that day? Was I being mean?

...See more So I was in history class and I was put in groups of 6 people. We were recreating the Berlin conference (Negotiating who gets what part of Africa). I had a partner and we were negotiating to get a part of west africa. Then, this boy who wasn't my partner told me that I was a bad teammate. And I honeslty don't know what I did wrong. But then I started to get anxiety attack. The weird thing is, my brain was blank but I knew I was getting an anxiety attack. Does that happen to you guys too? Usually, when i get an anxiety attack, I overthink and there are many scenarios in my head. Anyway, I started hitting my head because that's how I cope with it. But my attack was getting worse and my eyes started to tear up. I still think about that comment and I don't know how to get over it. I know I am making a big deal out of it but I don't know how to "not care". Please help Also, this girl came up to me and asked me if I remember practicing basketball with her. I don't remember but I said I rememeber. Was that a bad lie? Should I have told her the truth. But I don't want to embarass her for mistaking someone. And it's technically not a lie because I do know her since her father was my geography teacher. What's your opinion?
