My friend of over 30 years ended our friendship a few years back. It started gradually by being too busy to meet up, to not returning my calls and then to stop buying birthday and Christmas presents. There was never an argument, cross word spoken, misunderstanding between us and she chose not to discuss her feelings with me. She simply made a decision and ended it. Oddly around the time this happened she friended me on fb as I had just joined. She has since posted some hurtful things about the meaning of friendship and constantly updates her news feed with 'amazing catch ups' with various friends. She also threw herself a big birthday party and invited so many people from the village and friends but not me. I came to the conclusion that the friendship had run its course as we had been friends since childhood. However she then rekindled friendships with other mutual childhood friends. Without wanting to sound paranoid some of it feels deliberately directed at me. I no longer follow her on fb and have even had counselling. What makes this especially hard is that she lives close by as do our parents (small Cornish village) and I run the risk of bumping into them which is awkward (elephant in the room). Counselling has helped however it hasn't quite heeled my wounds and I also feel humiliated and embarrassed that she no longer wants our friendship. The reason I post this now is because I dreamt about her last night so clearly it's still on my mind. I see other people have posted similar threads over the years so I would appreciate any advice on how to get over this and truly move on.
