Hi this is my first reply on here. I have a friend of nearly 30 years and I moved 12 years ago and ended up in the same street (house swop). We did all sorts together - lunch, bands, festivals (local) , I gave her lifts when she didn't have a car. We were in our 50s, had boyfriends come and go. A few years ago she reconnected with an ex, I met him and got on well with him. Covid happened but we chatted on the street after clapping for carers. However as restrictions eased she slowly distanced herself, I sent wedding photos of my son, she never commented. When I told her about my 2nd grandchild she was more interested in talking about her bf drunken night out. I didn't get invited out for her bday with her saying she thought I was Covid phobic after the event. Gradually I've given up sending texts, apart from Xmas when I sent a card and NY when I sent a text. Favour returned on both ocassions. Also happened with another of my neighbours who was her friend also. I don't understand what's happened but have been gracious about it and refuse to beg, I have witnessed her falling out with many of her close friends over the years. It does sting, 30 years is a long time and we've experienced divorce, breakups, parental deaths, children's illnesses, etc. Anyone else experienced this? Apologies in advance for any autocorrects that confuse ?????
