I just received a text from my childhood friend saying that she wants to die, she's got a problem and she couldnt find any way to resolve it. Plus she hates it when her parents ask her to speak her mind and share whatevers consuming her Last night she posted in fb that she doesnt want to talk with anyone.. i thought she wanted someone to actually ask her and when i did she replied angrily and said, cant you understand that i dont want to talk to anyone?! Ahh, i know we have to give space so people could calm diwn a bit before we ask them to share their concerns. But i just cant let her be.... i dont want her to think that she only has a friend wjen she's ok and that i wont be there when shes not....

I certainly would be very sad if my friend would leave me.i certainly would feel really lost .friends are everything to me. ..Sometimes friend can understand more with us compared with our family .If my friend will leave me ,, i would ask reason he left me . If I had a faulty , i 'il apologize and i will correct the mistake ... i will plead that he has not abandoned me ..

Dont worry for her too much, just leave her alone for a while. Sure she will bother you again and ask your advice. Women we sometime act like that. I used to do like your friend, don't want to talk with anyone else but after than i bother my friends again, say my problems out blah blah...and feel ok later. That girl are so lucky when she has a good friend like you. And i am sure that she knows it, women is sensitive with it. Wish you guy are always happy.

I think she really needs someone to talk with. Why don't go to her place before it is too late. Sometimes being alone will give her more bad thoughts. People who are depressed tends to do some unexpected things- so they should not be leave alone.

hi friend, well i can understand your concern about her,but its something we have many times in our life. Circumstances make us so do weird kind of behavior to people around you and isolate you. That is a crucial time when many friends and near ones can misunderstand you,failing to know that such situation make one sort out oneself and move ahead in life.but on the other side too it is common that a friend like you will be worried and concern about the status of the friend who actually need to be consoled and supported and not to be left alone in this kind of situation. but i would advice you to be with her and not to make her understand that.let her sort out herself first and let her express herself in whatever way she want and whenever she want.for the time being let her be alone but you be aware of her need stay with her without letting her know.

It would be unwelcoming if you won't give credit to what our friend wishes too.Definitely they are our comforts in all venue aside from our very own family but perhaps they need space also to have time for themselves as we want also.Friends are to be treasured for a lifetime maybe or sometimes they would disappear right away because their presence depends on how we are treating them and how they treat us in return.But regardless of whatever your interactions were, the time spared for each other what is important is the attachment that is bound with your friendship.
