Am I paranoid?). I’m getting really sick of this, I just want it to go back to how it always used to be, and right now I have other family issues on my mind. Please help!

reader, anonymous, writes (9 November 2006): Perhaps your friend is discovering other interests.
Give her time to get over the initial excitment and let her know you are there for her as a friend.
If you sound to needy, it may push her away.
Give her some space but when you get a chance in person, let her know how rejected you feel without sounding like you are nagging.
try to do things you both enjoy to remind her why you would to be such good friends before.
I used to have a friend that used to call me once a week just to tell me off for not calling her for a week! Apart from the fact that we have changed as people and had nothing in common, she pushed me again with her demands.
I am not saying that your situation is not this drastic but allow her some time to do her own thing. She should also consider your feelings as you are not a rag doll off a shelf.
Meanwhile, find other friends of your own so that you are not waiting around for her all the time. Good luck
