I had a close girl friend 5 years ago. I told her anything and she wasn't. For our case, she was the listener and I was the speaker. We don't like to have arguments, conflict with each other. She was a very good friend. The problem with us was, we were not open enough to each other. When I was angry with her, I can't opened it to her. It was very difficult to hurt her feelings and vice-versa. We kept negative things within ourselves for years. Then one day, the volcano erupted. We directly become strangers. We don't know each other anymore. The people around us they wondered why. I just said our friendship is over. I saw her everyday, she's happy. I have the opposite effect. I don't have regrets to lose the friendship. But sometimes I miss someone to talk to, anything. We don't talk for 4 months now. I talk to her when it's necessary. I know, I can't bring back the old time we had. I don't hate her, I don't want to talk to her or near to her anymore. I think she also towards me. What can say about this?we become enemies.

I can understand how you feel as it has happened to me before.I had this great friend since Primary school and we were really so close till even after graduation,we never lost contact and very deep.We had a little argument just because i didnt tell her i was coming to her town,which was about 30 minutes from me and got there before calling her and like joke,she took it personal and i tried explainig to her that i wanted to surprise her and she was just shouting on me for minor issue and was pissed off and told her to dropped the conversation and i dropped the phone.Since then,over 6 weeks,we are just being polite with other,nothing close again and now,i see her like any other person who dont matter to me or not in my agenda

We are strangers now. We talk when it's necessary. I treat her as one of my colleagues. As in, we've never became close friends before. Now she's totally a stranger to me.

Thanks, I think we had enough with each other. The friendship we had is over and we can do nothing with it. Period is period.

That happened with me! Except the volcano hasn't erupted yet. There is a tension between us and yeh, everything we say seems really strained.

For me, I become tense when she's around. I try to ignore her presence but still she's there. There's no way to bring back the old times even as a normal colleague.

Well it happens, excepting less and accepting friends for what they are..
