I've always given my full heart in a friendship, and usually gotten burned in the end. I just want to say my heart goes out to you and I hope you find some peace. It always hurts, but remember, they are only just one person, and you have a heart of gold even if part of it was left with them.

I've definitely dealt with one-sided friendships before, and it can be so hurtful!

I put my heart and soul into my friends, so whenever I've had struggles with a friend, it's bene more heart wrenching than any romantic relationship I've had. But you're right, sometimes, silence says everything. Sending you love because you rock. xo

This is the person that is supposed to be with you until the end, even after you're married and have kids. I lost touch with my best friend when I moved and it really hurt me. Now I realize that who we were as friends aren't who we are now. We both grew in opposite directions and that's just how life turned out for us. We don't really talk anymore but it doesn't bother me because I'm happy with who I am and who I surround myself with.

Sending you all the love and hugs! XOXOXO

I lost two very close friends in the past couple of years….and it still stings. Even thinking about the fact that it turned into very much a one sided friendship…it still stings because there were happy times.

So I'm thinking about ya- it does get easier…though the hurt of having lost that friendship will never completely go away.

Losing a best friend is one of the toughest things to go through. I've been through it too and this post reminded me how much it hurts. I hope it gets better for you soon! Hugs!

I love that you chose to write about it because it's so therapeutic. Sending hugs and a bottle of wine your way because a broken friendship is tough to overcome. Yay for the brand new Charlotte friends you do have!

I had a friend who was my good friend for 5 years and when I was planning my wedding she was supposed to be one of my bridesmaids. Long story short I felt like she was not there for me during that time and we ended up having a falling out. We haven't spoken in 6 years. I saw her in passing when I was out with my BFF last summer and she looked at me like I was a stranger. I was really hurt when we had our falling out, but I started to think about our friendship and realized that she wasn't a very good friend to me anyway. You just reach a point in your life where you know who your real/true friends are and that is what really matters!! 🙂

It was interesting their perspectives, a lot of what she had to say about friendships in your 20s made me go aha! That was me! I lost a friendship in my 20s that I thought was a long haul friendship but it turned out to be a friendship for a specific time. Which makes sense now, we served our purpose in the other's life and we both were better for the friendship existing and then ending. But, it hurt when it ended. I spent a lot of time crying and being confused. And I'll admit to wanting to be right during our fighting which only made things worse!
