Not sure if this is the right place for this topic… I was friends with a lady for many years. We traveled together, spoke on the phone all the time, met frequently… we were best friends. 9 years ago she got pregnant. I have a son so I thought it would make us even closer, being both of us mons. But all of a sudden she stopped calling. I gave her some space a few days and then asked her if she was OK. She replied that she was too busy to see me and she was bonding with a group of local women that were also pregnant because the kids will go to the same school and she wanted to be friends with different people now. It was a blow for me after so many years of good friendship so I always suspected there must be something else. I kept on sending messages to her on her birthday and Christmas and she always sent a dismissive answer so I stopped, got over it, accepted the fact that maybe she never liked me that much.
I was at work today and during a meeting my phone rang. It was her. I had to ignore the call so she sent me a message. She said “I know we lost contact but I would love to be your friend again”. Just like this. No explanations after 9 years. She asked me if she can write me an email to tell me about the past 9 years. I want to be fair, maybe something bad happened to her and she wanted a radical change, new people… on the other hand, I feel upset because she didn’t care at all about me for so so long. I wanted to write back and ask her to tell me why she stopped talking to me but a part of me would like to just ignore her like she did to me.
What would you do?
