Me and my friend have had a lovely friendship. We could really rely on each other and tell each other the truth. I've always tried to be happy for her when news is shared that I perhaps don't find all that great or disagree with. But at the moment I'm finding the friendship to be somewhat suffocating.
It feels like I'm being constantly judged about things and questioned or put under the spotlight about something I've said or done. I'd like to keep the friendship going but I really feel I ought to take a step back. Every time I speak to her at the moment I enjoy the exchange of messages until I hit a nerve and it then gets a bit more intense. I end up feeling worse and anxious. I want our old friendship back (supportive and jokey) and I wonder if stepping back for a bit might help regain it?
I also don't feel like I know what is going on with her at the moment. I do ask but I kept getting met with "fine" "good" etc or "yes you keep asking/saying". It in turn is making me do the same as I don't want to be judged and I wonder if I'm just boring the crap out of her? I really don't understand what is going on.
