I lost a group of friends some time ago; it's been several years and it still haunts me. These were friends I'd known for 15 years.
It's complicated and I think I either needs some good counselling or just a chat with someone who understands female friendships and how they can get really bitchy, and what that can do to a person.
I realise now having read up on it the group functioned on relational aggression and I am best out of it.
However i see that relational aggression happening again eg it's just happened in my Nct group and that was quite upsetting.
Anyone lost friendships and had a hard time getting over it but finally did? These were people I thought were real true friends and while I'm glad I know they aren't the sense of hurt is massive. One of them just didn't invite me to her wedding, and that really sends a clear message out that the friendship is over.
