Okay...here's my dilemma...I had a best friend for several years. However..she lives over an hour from me...and rarely got down to see me...when she did she expected dinner and wanted to stay really late...Now...that I have not had her down for a while..she has stopped calling me. I know she is busy and tired from work..but I called her last...and have not heard from her in a long time. I am wondering if I should even send her a Christmas card, since it looks like she doesn't want to be friend anymore?

i think you should send her a nice one.
write down in that card how you are feeling about your friendship with her. you should first confirm your suspicions if she does not want to be friend with you anymore 'cause what if that's not the case? what if she is just too busy? this is the best way for her to know that you value and appreciate her.
anyway, christmas is about sharing love. so don't hesitate, send her. Good luck!

I would send her a card. We are adult's and should make every effort to amend relationship's. But, if you send her one and she does not send you one, well that means war lol. I would not send anymore or make an effort to contact her. Good luck

Hon, you don't send cards and letters for them, you send them for yourself.
To remind yourself that you too sometimes forget you have more friends than you see or talk to every day...
Getting a response is a bonus.

Yes you should send a card its a loving gift and i mean even if they don't send you anything back or hear from them atleast they know you care enough about them and they know you want there friendship by sending them a card

If you havent heard from her for a long time, i think it would be nice to send her a christmas card, just to let her know thats she's not forgotten. Why not pay a visit to her and maybe give the card personally. I think she would appreciate that once in a while you visit her, have a brew/tea and just talk, got a lot of things to catch up, what do you think? ;0)

Of course you should send her a card. You say in your discussion that you have been best friends for several years, I don't think a couple of months of not talking or getting together means the friendship is over.

Send her a Christmas card and give her a bit of news of what has happened in your life. Conclude with the wish that you could stay in touch. If you don't hear back you know she does not want to be friends anymore.

it does not hurt to send a christmas card to even a stranger so i guess it's allrigt to send it to a person who has been your firend,for all you know this might just revive the friendship as it is really really hard to find good friends and all friends are for KEEPS

I think you should send her a Christmas Card, because Christmas is a time to forgive and forget and start a new life with Jesus.

Send her a card :)
Maybe she'll get it and give you a call.
Even if she doesn't at least she'll know you were thinking of her.

You said you called her last? Why not call her again. Is there a rule that i do not know about that if u are friends you call, then she, and then you? I do not practice this rule with my friends at all. if i wanna talk i call, and when they want to they call.
Send her a x-mas card and after the holidays, maybe you should sit wown and have a talk about how u both want it to be!
