Ignored

So I've been friends with someone for too many years to count. We've had our fallings out and then got back in contact etc. more recently our convos have been a bit different. Still regularly talking about our lives, futures etc. I reached out to my friend for help and they were supportive. I thanked them but poured my heart out too. Maybe a bit stupid I know. This was 2 days ago. I have not had a reply. I've decided to not contact them and have deleted my SM too. Realistically I need to forget this friend right?

After 2 days you have deleted SM and decided not to contact them ever again? Seems like a bit of an overreaction to me!

Maybe not talk to them ever but distance

Myself from them anyway

Have they definitely read the message? I would wait a bit longer. They may have stuff going on too.

Yeah I would hang fire about deleting friend and SM. You don't know what others have going on in their lives. Hope they manage to contact you over the weekend and hopefully you've managed to find other support with your problem also.

Realistically I think you need to allow your friend time to respond. You've dropped a bit of a bomb into the relationship and its not unreasonable to allow them a little thinking space before they respond. Obviously they may not, which in itself is a response, but give them time.
I would however manage your expectations. If they were completely on the same page I think you'd have had a quick response. A delay doesn't usually signify the exact response you'd hope for. But it doesn't necessarily mean you'll need to shut the friendship down. Give it until after the weekend.

@Guesswho88 this vague, weird post is from July.

@EvenBetta This is so weird, it said it was trending!
