I have a friend that I went to college with a couple of years ago, (both of us were mature students). We kept in contact after college and I helped her through some difficult times with her abusive (now ex) bf and her teenage daughters. Anyway, I hadn't heard from her for a few months apart from the odd text here and there so I decided to ring her and catch up on stuff, she seemed a bit busy and said she would call back but she never did. I text her a week later inviting her to lunch but she said she couldn't leave her new puppy home alone and couldn't bring her because she's not yet house trained so I thought fair enough. About 3 weeks later I bumped in to her whilst out shopping and she looked really startled and shifty when she saw me and made a weird excuse and left. Yesterday she signed on Y! messenger and when I sent her an IM she again made some excuse about the puppy and quickly signed out. So now I think she is avoiding me, it's pissed me off a bit considering I have been a pretty loyal friend to her. I'm not one to go begging friends with anyone but she has pissed me off, any ideas for handling this?
