I say 12 because 2 for answering, 10 for best answer. I have a best friend, we've been best friends a while but as soon as she went to college, she changed, and she's not the same person she used to be and I don't want to be friends with her anymore. Is it wrong to want a friend that accepts me or anything? I don't know if I should stay in a friendship I'm not happy in.

You don't need to stay friends with her just because you have been. You've probably changed too - and that's okay. It's good to meet new people and find people that have the same interests as you do. You don't have to feel bad for wanting a better friendship. If what you want isn't in the relationship than don't hang around. I went through the same thing after high school graduation. Most of my friends got into the party scene when I didn't and they just became too much for me and did a lot of things I didn't want to or agree with. I know if I had forced myself to continue being friends with them I wouldn't have been happy or even done things I would later regret. We are still friends but not best friends that hang out all the time - we still keep it friendly when we see each other and that's fine with all of us.

No, I would not stay in the friendship. If you are not happy especially. People change and their interests change. There is nothing wrong with you feeling the way you are feeling. People are suppose to accept you for you. If they don't it is not true friendship. You sound like a cool person. Look at this way, its her loss your gain. In due time God will bless your with a friend.

That's how things go with friendships after high school sometimes. I think people just develop different interrests and are thinking so much about their future. If you feel uncomfortable, just let the friendship go for now, but with no hard feelings. Live your own life, and maybe later on you will meet up with her again and pick up where you left off. That's just life, people go through a lot of changes in the process of growing up.

Keep her around, but maybe at a distance. You never know when you may need her... Maybe you have outgrown her, and one day, she will need your shoulder. Even if she is of no use to you right now, you never know when things may change. Keep in touch, and maybe once she grows up your friendship may be better. But in the meantime, make sure you have other friends. One's who will be there for you, like she used to be. Don't live life waiting for her to grow up. It's really not worth it.
I had that happen with my sis. She's been totally different since our school days, and we were always best friends growing up.
;o)

its funny cuz i have a friend that ive known since pre-k and now shes getting all boy crazy. it seems that all her friends that are in love with boys are the only people she hangs out with. i mean who doesnt love guys, but like it seems liek i dont know her anymore. and my friends and i are realy worried cuz she has been hanging out with some people that we feel are not the best. we have tried to talk to her but she just doesnt lisen. wow..sorry this doesnt really help kay for you question if i were you you should try to confront her and if she doesntlisten to you or even care then i think you should try to work it out with her and if she doesnt care then do what you think is best for yourself.

that's what happens when ppl grow up
you will find you will have a lot of friends that come and go in your yrs
just remember some friends go for a while and come back just be open when she does

sounds like you aren't accepting who she evolved into...it might be mutual, but the description is short. People change and move on...you don't need to have a official break-up where you burn the bridges.
But you can continue on with your life w/ or w/out your friend

Have you tried talking to her, ask her what is going on! Think that now that she is in collage she has changed. She has alot more on her plate! Just talk to her and then try to make a decision on your own.

No, you are very right, your feeling is called dignity, or pride, and it's very important. Sad, that, but I think your decision is just about the only thing you can do. Good luck & congratulations on your mature thinking.

Simply means she has moved on, not intent on forgetting you. When you go to college, your whole world changes. Nothing personal.
