I had this friend, she was my best friend who I met through her boyfriend. At first we kind of didn’t talk but then we started talking about mental health and we have been down very similar paths.
I was able to talk to her about what went on in my head, she has schizophrenia so she understood without me having to overly explain, in fact she was the one that introduced me to this forum.
Although we had such a good friendship it came to an end a few months ago and I can’t stop thinking about how I’ll never have that support back. I have the support of my girlfriend but she can’t fully understand. Having someone that understood was amazing and I can’t believe I’ll never have that again.
I hope one day we can talk again although I doubt we will, we ended kind of on bad terms and everything was conflicting.
I’ve lost some people in my life and others have stuck around even through all the sz stuff. I would say you never know with people so you may get an opportunity to rekindle your friendship later. Meanwhile I guess you keep moving forward and keeping yourself open to new friendships.
I think (unless like others have said there is an apology to be done or other reconciliation efforts) it’s best to move on. Even if later there is an opportunity for the reconciliation, it will have been wasted time and heartache sitting around waiting for it.
We disagreed on so much, she didn’t like when I got into a relationship. I’m not sure if that’s something I should apologise for, I’d rather the relationship than a friendship
She was in a relationship, that’s how I met her. Her boyfriend was my mate, who I also lost but we lost contact before. I don’t think he liked how much I spoke to her
