Today I got a reply from her.
For three weeks she has been avoiding me. Normally she would have been the first to put a like/ comment on my photos in facebook, but she has been avoiding me completely. No calls from her and all my calls went unanswered.
I couldn't stop myself from writing to her and asking her if anything was wrong and she replied today saying "yes, something is wrong." She didn't say what it was. I just sent a sorry mail and sat back. This is all I could do.
For two years, we were the best of the friends. If people were looking for her they would ask me and vice versa. Today she is avoiding me completely. Under normal circumstances, it would hurt me but I would try and let go. But now it hurts, because her daughter and my children are the best of the friends. Pity this had to happen. But I think it is time to move on.
This has happened a few times in my life. And each time I have gone back and apologised whether it was my mistake or not did not matter. Only one person came back to me and spoke to me, and that too probably because she needed me.
This time too, I think it is the end of a relationship, breaking of a friendship. I was friendly with her inspite of me knowing her plus and minus points. I saw her as a person as a whole. Didn't care if I liked certain things about her or not. That didn't matter. She was a friend and that is all mattered. I opened up with her, which I normally wouldn't do.
Today is the end of another friendship. May be the beginning of a new life. Let go and move on I tell my self. And yes, it will be difficult to explain to my children why they cannot go and stay with their friend, but it is not impossible. They are young, they will talk about their friend, a lot but they too will learn to find new friends and move on.
