I noticed that I am usually the only 1 contacting a friend and trying to keep in touch. He usually would not?

Question

call me unless I called him. I called him on his birthday early august and since then I haven't called him, and he has not tried to contact me. I miss him and would like to call him and see how he is, but I don't want this to be a one sided friendship. Maybe I'm letting my pride get in my way, but i think he needs to try at least a little bit. So now that its been almost 4 weeks since we talked what do i do? do i call him or just wait, and if he never calls, Do i just lose this friend?

Answer 1

Well, its obvious he doesn't want to be friends with you.  And doesn't even want to tell you so.  He may even consider you an annoyance.

Answer 2

Read the handwriting on the wall. Friendships come and friendships go.  Only a very few will endure. Isn't it a shame that we often do not project what we feel in our hearts. Friendships help you to grow socially. Most are not forever. Too bad.

Answer 3

i had this firned and he we had another firned and my one frined got sick of him and would not phone him or anything. this other guy kept trying to contact him for a year afterwards.

Answer 4

Honey, it IS a one sided event...  I won't even call it a friendship or relationship because 'being one sided' keep it from being anything more than an 'event'...  You should develop some other friendships that are two sided...and forget the ones that 'use' you...  I know it's rough, but the sooner the better...

Answer 5

one sided relationships will never work. i do not think you have to loose him as a friend, just wait until he tries to contact you before you will resume contact with him.

Answer 6

Sometimes you have to open your eyes.  I  have gone through this also.
