    I had a long term friend ghost last year and come back with a lame apology. It has never felt the same and you are amazing at explaining it. I will continue to honor my truth and keep focused on the dependable friends in my world. I deserve respect too. ♥️

    Wow I can relate. I have a friend who I’ve known for 30 years who moved to a different state. For a long time we were on the same rung of the ladder. But she ghosts me all the time. Until she needs someone to commiserate with, then she will reach out to me. I’ve always been there for her but now I’m realizing that she’s never there for me when I need her. I don’t want to ghost her like she does to me. So I’ve decided it’s time to communicate a boundary. Thank you for this. I feel like it’s given me the motivation to finally realize that I deserve better than this type of toxic friendship.♥️

    This has happened to me recently and I was told this is how she behaves by other friends and it’s normal and I felt gaslit and then she gaslit me and said no we just couldn’t get hold of each other from that moment I said leave me alone but she seems to like to be chased when I didn’t do that she wants to be back

    Friends need to separate from time to time. Holding a grudge for ghosting is ridiculous. Some friendships are too intense for some people. Some people need to disconnect to reclaim themselves. It all is what it is. There is virtue in forgiveness and there is virtue in acceptance of that which may be a genuine necessity. To all the friends I’ve had and separated from - it is what it is. Perhaps we all need to look closer into our mirrors before we judge others.

      i agree. i have been extremely patient with a woman i have strong feelings for. i changed my communication style to acknowledge that she needs lots of space. she keeps coming around in small doses, and we ran into each other at a bar and she called it serendipity. its hard because i want more communication with her, but i recognize that i would prefer to be patient and wait to see if she comes around. its very painful though becauase my feelings of inadequcy get triggered

      @@FS-nq2yc I do not feel differently at all. I feel that the comment has a great deal of insight. But I am a very easy going person . I think a lot , but I don’t usually express myself this well. It would be great if we could keep our forever friends forever. BUT it’s not an easy task. It takes two to have a friendship. It takes loyalty and patience. I’m loyal but my patience has limits. In my heart, my friends will always be my friends. But I can no longer subject myself to their self-centeredness.
