writes: Have you ever been scared to lose your best friend? Theyre like your other half. They understand u and everything your going through. You guys have been through the ups and downs. Well lately i feel like my best friend is slipping away. We used to be able to talk without having to think of what to say next. Like all she says now is oh or ok or lol or something simple like that. She knows she can tell me anything and that im always there for her. But shes been through hell and back and i know when she talks bout things she gets sad. But i like to help her and give advice. I also respect her space and thinking maybe shell tell me in her own time but she never does. I have to find it out from other ppl which bothers me. I dont know what i should say....it sorta feels like she doesnttrust me anymore have u guys had something like this happen to u?? We have a great friendship and i dont want to throw it away mayb its just a little set back??? Thanks for the comments

This happens to a lot of people out there . A classic case of a warm friend suddenly becoming cool. In this case her views on life seem to have undergone a change as you have stated that she had to endure some difficult situations recently.But its bizarre that she no longer confides in you though she keeps talking to others normally enough. In my opinion you have already embarked on a solution to this problem. You respect her space and have given her both time and space to sort out her life. As a good friend you have also agreed to be there and support her whenever she needs .. I think that's all you can do from your side..If your friend suddenly descides not to trust you for any reason then, she's losing a good friend i guess.Dont get bogged down by this treatment of hers.Move on.. Its time for you to start making new friends so that you dont feel lonely.Stop confiding in her until her trust in you is restored..

Hun if you are that worried go and see her and tell her how your feeling express how you want to do what ever it takes to help her and that you feel like your loosing her...
You said she has had a real hard time and maybe she is having trouble talking to you for a reason maybe she feels to close to you or feels she dosnt want to burden you there are so many reasons why ..
I really feel you should try and spend time with her and hear what she is saying to you if she is not happy to tell you then don't push her people deal with things there own way . I know your feeling scared of loosing her but huni you need to put her first for the moment ask her what she wants from you and respect that..only time will tell I really wish you both the best and I really hope your friend is ok
