Am i losing my friends?
i have been friends with my friend britt for about 14 years and recently we have been distant. britt has been hangin out with my other friend la lately. it seems like whenever la is no around we talk and it seems like old times but, when la comes around those 2 are talking about stuff and i have no clue what they are talking about so i keep to myself. i dont know if i am losing her as a friend or what? what should i do to be close with her again? please dont be too mean. thanks!

Sounds like she wants to have more than one friend.
How terrible!
It could be that she knows a lot about you because you have been friends for 14 years. Perhaps she is in an exploratory stage with this other friend. That may abate. As to how you get close to her again. Talk to her about the things that you have in common. If you feel like you have a good relationship with her let her know you miss your talks etc.
Sounds like a typical “friendemy” battle.
I would just confront her about this – tell her you’re noticing the distance between the both of you and ask if there is any reason why exactly it’s happening. Let her know that you still value the friendship – then ask her to hang out?
thanks for your advice. well except for rangerr. your right it has been awhile. i believe this is happening becuase she is trying to get la hooked up with her boyfriend friend. but that all she wants to ever talk about and it is irritating
My sister and I have the same kinda thing. My best friend is friends with us both and they play WoW and watch Supernatural. I don’t. Drives me nuts that I can’t participate in the conversation, but I do what you do. I just think they’ve formed a bond between them and that’s okay. Let’ em know that you’d like to be included. It’s being pouty, I know, but it’s what I did and it worked.
It is only natural people like “new” people to chat with. I would not worry too much or feel you have to compete with the newbies in your friends life.
thank god i have someone that relates to me that answers my question. everyone else just doesnt understand. thanks for your help
