Years ago, I became great friends with a girl in my class. Without explanation, she pulled away and we drifted apart. Now we don't speak at all. For a long time, I felt terrible and blamed myself. I took the opportunity to take a look at myself and the contributions I made/failed to make to the friendship, and I know that the problem wasn't all me, but I still feel hurt when I think about it. Our husbands got along really well, and she was really my only good friend.
I recently found out she's pregnant and due just a few weeks after me (they're the first for us both). I wrote her a card to say congratulations, but I'm wondering if I should just leave her be. I wrote that I'd really like to see her again, but I feel like I come off as desperate. I had attempted to rekindle the friendship a couple of years ago, but she didn't seem interested, so I let it be.
What would you do if you were her? Would you rather just be left alone? I'm afraid of getting hurt again. Thank you.
