My mom says she will answer when she has a chance.
Dear Abby: Girl, who says friend won’t return her calls or texts, is told by her mother to ‘stop calling’DEAR ABBY: I’m a lonely girl without many friends. The friends I do have I hold on to tightly. One of them is now moving to a different state. She said we would stay in touch and I’d see her once more before she leaves, but she hasn’t been answering my calls or texts. She hasn’t been talking to another friend, either.
DEAR FRIEND: Your mother is a wise woman. There could be more than one reason why your friend hasn’t responded to your efforts to reach out. She could be busy. She could be having separation anxiety, just as you are. Or she could be feeling smothered and overwhelmed. Listen to your mother and take a step back.Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.
