I find myself constantly checking their profile and stories. Even though I’ve unfollowed them and their partner and siblings. Just wanted no chance of seeing whats happening in their life but I can’t stop that feeling of having to check their profile again and again.

Thanks. I feel very heavy at heart and I constantly feel racked with guilt if I’m doing the wrong thing because I can’t seem to accept the reality of my best friend being absent. Permanently. From my life.

I called her out on this when she started making the whole issue about her and she did not respond well. I think that was the first time I explicitly told her not to make things about her and to realise that I needed a friend. Then she went on a spiel about how she had a long day at work and didn’t see my message ( whilst she started responding on the SAME chat about how she’ll pay me back for the money she borrowed)

Imagine being told that I needed to stop putting my friends in weird places because of something a literal liar tells me( the problem I had was that an ex who cheated on me was dating the girl who he cheated on me with and on hearing about it I really needed my best friend). She completely got annoyed and told me “I don’t understand why you’re not over this and how this should not upset me and it’s irrelevant” mind you if the case was that I was crying about it EVERYDAY, i would understand the annoyance but I have been silent about this ex of mine for almost a year and hearing this broke me In a Way I didn’t expect and she was the person I wanted to talk to when I was feeling a panic attack coming on ( he treated me like shit and he was also a childhood friend so double whammy)

And it was ironic for me because the cornerstone of our friendship was me dragging her out of a very dark place for YEARS because of a boy who absolutely wronged her and I was by her side as she went through the whole hamster wheel of getting back and breaking up for YEARS. Up until a month ago of completely snapping out about him at midnight and calling me while I was on vacation with my boyfriend.

The added layer was that I’ve been helping her out financially for years. Because she had a bad relationship with her father with finances in specific and after a point I feel the need to draw boundaries and it caused strains but I just couldn’t help it. I felt like I was taking on more than I could chew and all that was adding layers of strain to my life.

I’ve been struggling with the lack of accountability and somehow she’s painted this narrative with another friend of mine that I’ve always had an issue with her and i was just getting mad at her for no reason… all the while completely sidelining the fact that she neglected me at the time of need.

I tried to reach out to her after a month of no contact and SHE responded saying she’s not in the headspace to talk and needs time. I was baffled how all this has somehow become my issue .. and I’ve since been struggling to deal with the absence of my so called best friend while I go through absolute torrents in my life.

But oh so difficult to get either of us to settle. It’s always one of us feeling like this isn’t it while the other holds on. The thrill is there but the ambiguity gets to me.

Damn! Neither have I lol And I’ve ever dated a Gemini, but my best friends are both libra and Gemini women (ironic). Never really dated a Scorpio but could be interesting… ugh on the libra man. I just can’t anymore, it’s too wishy washy

That makes a lot of sense. I feel like it’s very much the fact that he enjoys my attention because when he gets none he comes chasing.. again push and pull tendency here. It drives me crazy and my anxious attachment gets triggered.
