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

Hi Valeerr

I have so many questions as you might in this whole thing. Do you know what your friend might be going through, a stressful phase, maybe an upcoming deadline, etc.. Sometimes I have seen even best friends can't always be there in the moment of need and may take time to really focus. Does your friend seem different? Do you feel that other people are noticing? Has your friend acted different in other ways?

Also feel free to head to a chat to speak with an active listener or to go to the therapist spot at 7 cups. I think the forums are public. @blissfulFlute808

Hi


I start from the fact that we are not really best friends. I see her as a sister, but even though I know I'm someone to her, I'm not her best friend. She started to respond coldly to my texts and when I asked her why about her, she told me that she got too close to me and that she wants to take a break. She says she does it whenever she gets too fast to someone but right now I'm afraid for our friendship as she's really important to me. Can you help me? In any case thanks
