One of my friend's isn't there for me when it comes to serious things, even though I was there for her when..?

Question

She tried to attempt suicide. I never ditched her during that time, I was always there. I never thought differently of her. I'm not in the best mood right now, and I was texting her. She could tell and asked me what was wrong. So I told her. Sometimes I'm afraid to tell her things because I feel like she can't handle the truth and stop talking to me. I was explaining something to her and she was just like "Ummmm, okay then. Bye.". What am I supposed to do about this? I can't believe that she would treat me this way when I'm really not happy, especially since I was there for her during her dark suicidal time.

Answer 1

Maybe the friendship you have with that girl just isn't very deep.  Sure, you are there for her, but you are not sure if she is there for you.  Maybe your role in that friendship is a giving one.  You can always talk to her about it but she seems mentally fickle (attempting suicide and all that).  There comes a time when you find the limits of a friendship.  Remain her friend, and keep reaching out to her, but maybe you also need to seek out new, more stable friends who can help you through your tough times.

Answer 2

I think trying to confine in someone that had a "dark suicidal time" it's just, i mean, doesn't it sound utterly ridiculous? There are just some types of friends that aren't really meant to confine in like that, try a parent, councilor, or someone.

Answer 3

you know, maybe she just isn't the right friend for you. but, saying that, think about what else could it could be. she doesn't seem like the kind of person to take stuff well, guessing that she tried to commit suicide coz something bad that happened to her. you don't know, maybe she is just a bit afraid to get deeply into problems coz of what happened last time? (guessing from what u have told me) and maybe she's cautious of what she says or does, and maybe this is just something that she can't help you with. (not knowing what was wrong, though, it could have been almost anything)

hope you sort it out with your friend and try to talk with her, maybe there will be another explanation? just don't jump to conclusions

hope i heped :)

Answer 4

that really sucks, Sounds like she wants you to be there for you but couldn't really be bothered reaching out to help you when you need it. Try another friend, she doesn't sound like someone you want to share your problems with. She needs to remember that friendship is a two-way thing!

Answer 5

Friends,who can't treat u the way you deserved to be treated are not worth having.I went through a similar phase..ages ago and i just learned to stay away from such people,who take u for granted..who expect u to be there but are never there for u.My friend came back to me after saying bye,but I said either we talk it over or else we stay apart.I am glad we stayed apart...I found super duper awesome friends after that.I know it's difficult to say bye..but its worth it sometimes.

You decide how you want to be treated!and make sure no one treats u less.I don't follow this all the times but I know I should and I try.
