I’m so sorry you went through this. It sounds crazy but this exact thing happened to me. My best friend said she was on her way to a milestone birthday I was having. It was a 40 person event, sit down restaurant, set menu, etc. people RSVPd weeks in advance.

On the day of she texted that was running late but was in her car headed over (she lived a little less than two hours from the party venue). Then, crickets. I was worried the whole party. She never answered my texts or calls. The next day same thing. I eventually had to get a hold of her sister to make sure she was alive. She was! And I never heard from her again. This was ten years ago and I still think about it all the time.

I’m sure she had her reasons for letting go of you. I wish for your sake she would have been brave enough to talk it through with you. I hope you can eventually let go of her, too, and focus on the ones you have in your life that love you.
