Hey, guys…I hope that this is what this is for haha
I miss my best friend. Without getting into too much detail, he decided that he no longer wanted to be best friends two months ago because I was too clingy. This is something that I agree with. I don’t have a great relationship with my parents (he does) and my girlfriend and I broke up over the summer (he has been with his girlfriend for over three years now) and because of that, I really relied on him. He was my main source of comfort, which I realize sounds gay but it was true. He was like a brother. He spoke to me a few times about spending more time with his family and girlfriend and encouraged me to try and do the same but I was feeling too down to do either. He got sick of me ”giving up” and really having him as my ”only” friend and two months ago, told me he was done. He said we could possibly be friends in the future but that he needed a break. It was like a slap in the face but it was an awakening for sure. I got my shit together and have a healthier relationship with my parents and have started talking to old friends. But obviously, I miss him still. We haven’t spoken since that night two months and I want to try and rekindle our friendship. Obviously I won’t do it now. I still need some time to grow. But when? Do you think we’ll be able to go back to being best friends? Or even just friends? What would you do if you were in my situation. Please don’t be afraid to be honest — I genuinely want help and your ideas.
