a woman I was very good friends with in high school pretty much dumped me about a decade ago. it took me a long time to get over it. She was as close to a sister as I had. Recently, she's e-mailed and wants to reconnect. even apologized entirely. I feel like it took so long to accept the end of the friendship, i don't know i want to get back into it.

that means you do. i really don't know that i do. we are no longer friends. we've been not friends as long as we were friends. she ended our friendship in a very hurtful way. of course people change, but sometimes it's too late. [ Reply | More

So the alternative is to blow her off just to balance out the scale? Whats the point of that? I don't see much down side, at worst you have some closure - whatever that means. [ Reply | More

who said anything about blowing her off. i replied to her and asked her why now. and considering she did blow me off, never gave me any closure, which was very painful, I would not do that. i woudl tell her honestly how i feel. i found closure on my own. the last time i talked to her was sept 11 2001. i called to see if she was ok. it was clear she wasn't planning to call me. and her exact words were "I guess i'm glad you're not dead." that's when i realized she had no interest and probably never would again. that was my closure.

"I guess I'm glad you're not dead." Yeah, that would be the enough closure for me. [ Reply | More

Ita, she's obviously toxic, there's little point trying to come back from that. [ Reply | More

I don't think I could go back to a friendship. I could probably be civil, maybe exchange Christmas cards, but that's about it. [ Reply | More

no. we were in our mid 20s at the time. and true, people of all ages do stupid things. but it was so painful to lose her friendship. i don't know if i could ever let go and feel comfortable in the friendship. woudl alwasy be wondering when she'd do it again. [ Reply | More

mid 20s is different, unless there was a good reason, or her life was falling apart in some other way (people tend to do really dumb things when they are in bad places), I would just say you've moved on. [ Reply | More
