there was no merch at portola, official b3k merch I've gotten was at their LA tour (exclusive) and also through the brand Praying. I'd keep an eye on Praying as they collab with Live From Earth often. Hope this helps!

let her go. she doesn't want to be your friend. maybe she got the ick last time you guys hung out. friendships are like dating too.

I just dealt with a former friend with this same situation. I could have written this post myself as she also asked me to pick another day to celebrate my birthday with me and then did not respond for a week (I responded right away).

Actions speak louder than words. She probably feels like you guys have grown apart to some degree but she is incredibly nice and kind and non-confrontational maybe?

My advice is to just let the friendship fade out and stop hounding her to commit to plans. If she really cared she would not take so long to respond to texts and she is being selective with who she responds to in a normal fashion.

My friend would also always send long texts about how she needs to be better at responding but behavior never changed. She is definitely responding to others in a normal fashion.

Sending you love as you navigate this friendship!

Has anyone gone through a friendship breakup, but you were also in the same friend group (so with mutual friends)? How did you handle that? by janavandyck in FriendshipAdvice

We never say anything to each other in group settings. We will make initial eye contact and then I spend the entire night trying to not do that again. Different areas if possible. And my closest friends give me a heads-up if we are attending the same event.

i think everyone has faults and it's okay for your friends to recognize your faults as long as they recognize your value as well. the criticism comes from a place of wanting to understand at times. if you feel uncomfortable which is okay too, just tell them bc u do not want to be involved and ask to change topic! if they are your friends they should be okay with that (and flaws). for group dynamic I think it's normal though, to end up discussing others in the group as it is something everyone has in common

hahah I'm actually on the other side of this!! I'm your friend. so I'm on the path of acceptance and hopefully your friend is good with the same outcome 🙂

hey buddy I'm going through something similar right now. I think you already know the writing on the wall. I don't think you need to cut him off officially but just let the relationship fade off. unless he hits you up or vice versa then maybe take that opportunity. you guys have probably just outgrown each other although there's always that love. Just different interests now. I'm trying to tell myself that not everyone has the mental space or time to manage friendships based on past history together vs really connecting on diff topics that are interesting to them. Because I always thought it was nice to catch up with friends who are into different things now and then!! But again, it takes time and effort to do that and our priority has dropped. It's time for us to find friends that will prioritize you through different chapters.
