Friendship in danger
Hi, I'm new in this platform, and I have a problema with a friend. I always looked at her likes a sister, and in theese days we sarted to be more in confidence. She started to talk about her problems and I tried to help her, but after a few days something changed. She started to pull away from me and yesterday she told me she wanted to take a break and get away from me for a bit. I don't understand what is wrong with me. She says it's normal and it will pass, but now I feel lonely and worried about our friendship. Please help me, she's the best friend I have

Sometimes people when they open up and then pull back.......... It can be maybe they feel they shared too much and taking a break to hoping you both kind of forget the details of the share..........
or perhaps your advice/ help hit a sore spot ......for example if a persons advice is something i KNOW i should do but i have been procrastinating ................like complain about your job and they tell you X/Y or Z is hiring you should apply ..... but I rationalize........ well job is not that bad or i hate interviews or worse afraid i won't get the job... it is hard to face the friend that encouraged me to get NEW job or apply etc.
So sorry 😞 this has happened. Friends often weave in and out how they connect sometimes. Sometimes self care or other priorities take you away. Have comfort knowing you are friends… she said it is normal and maybe that is her normal. Hope you both reconnect again … keep the faith that will happen again.
