In today's Dear Annie column, Annie Lane has some tough advice for a reader who can't get over losing a good friend.
In spite of being told to leave them alone, today's Dear Annie reader let their anxiety get the better of them which led to crossing too many boundaries and the friendship ending.
It all started when I asked her if she wanted to go with me to a concert. We had gone to one prior to this one, and we had an awesome time. So I figured, let’s go to another one. She never got back to me. No calls or text back. Then I heard she got a job somewhere else at a restaurant and called her to find out, and still nothing. I got concerned because she had told me that she goes through depression and she stays away for a while until she gets over it.
This hit me big time. I was devastated, depressed and confused. We had become good friends and had a lot of good memories together, and I felt that it was all for nothing. I explained that I got anxious and called her at work, but she said my asking for her was unacceptable. A couple of months later, I did reach out to her again. I kept the message simple. I just told her that I missed her and still think about her. Her reply was, “Who is this?” She removed me from her contacts.
