Over the past few years I’ve noticed that my closest friend never initiates contact. If I don’t contact her, I don’t hear from her. This is fine, we’re all busy, life is stressful, etc. I have lots of friends who are similar...in the sense that we’re busy and can go ages without chatting but then we meet up/call and it’s lovely.

My issue isn’t the lack of her initiating contact. What bugs me is that she is permanently on Facebook. Tagging locations, updating statuses, uploading photos, talking to people, etc. I would say it’s verging on an addiction. Again, not a problem, everyone’s different and social media is a good way of staying in touch in these covid times.

But AIBU to feel hurt that she can’t/doesn’t text me/contact me yet is permanently on Facebook?

Maybe she doesn't have much to say and assumes her fb updates are enough right now? My friendships have gone a bit quiet, mainly as we aren't doing anything so all conversations are like groundhog day.

Maybe leave her alone for a while and see if she notices.

Possibly. I do feel like this was the case pre-covid though.
