I had a best friend in highschool. She told me that we would never lose contact, and we would stay friend. She still calls me her best friend, but she never returns my phone calls.
I think I have decided to give up on her and move on. Is this the right thing to do?

Yeah. It is ok to do that. Send her a card occassionally and tell her you are thinking of her. Give her your phone number. Ask her to call you. But, don't beat yourself up. Be thankful for the relationship you had, and keep on truckin'.

Well i think you should talk to her first. I mean do you really want to lose a friendship over something that could be nothing? Maybe she's been busy with work or family or a relationship. You shouldnt give up just because you are feeling like she doenst care anymore. Call her and leave her a message if she doesnt answer and let her know that its important. Get together somewhere and just talk. That's the solution. TALK! Let her know how you feel and maybe she could be feeling the same way or maybe she will open up and let you know what's been keeping her distant. But dont just give up at least try and talk if that friendship means that much to you

Friends grow apart for many reasons, marriage, distance, etc. Don't give up on her or say something you might regret later. Just let things be as they are. If she's not returning your call, then either send her an email or phone her and express your feelings and let it go at that. This is why I tell people to make as many friends as possible in this life, because you never know what direction any one friendship will go.

I remember when I was younger I had 2 best friends and we said BFF (Best Friends Forever) And then I moved and we lost touch because both of them had matured a lot, and I was a loser I guess. But I feel better not worrying about them to call or write because they're obviously happy doing their own thing in the world and being so far away, I'm not a part of it anymore. It's hard at first to break the tie, but when you do, it feels like weight off your shoulders.

I dont think she is ignoring your phone calls or whatever...Everyone has their own thing to do..and sometimes shes just probably busy and coincidently it lands on the times that you call her...just leave her a vm or a note and tell her you miss her..and you want to spend some time with her..and let her know how you feel about her not returning your phone calls..that it hurts...if she doesnt acknowledge it..then maybe you should move on...

Hi,
I think that you have to accept the fact that she may no longer be your best friend. Friends are there when we need them and will pick our calls evens in the middle of the night.
If I were you I would wait and give her a chance to contact you.
The time will show how much she cares.
Move on. Find a real friend, who will care.
=)))

Forever to a Highschooler means about 2 minutes to 2 weeks. Don't worry about her. If she comes around, cool, if not, that's cool too. Know that she is moving along with her life, just as you are with yours.

Sometimes friends grow apart and it happens, there is nothing wrong with moving on. Just keep those good times you guys had, those will last a life time

yes, sadly i have recently gone thru the same situation. ppl change and forget how much keeping in touch means. i'll always be there for her when she needs to speak to me, but i can't always expect for her to return my phone call. i will always consider her a good friend i can trust, but not my standard best friend.
