I have seen that if there is some time gap between 2 friends then they both try to avoid each other because the ego ness come in their mind and they think that other person should contact them first then only they will reply back , i do not understand why this ego ness come in their mind because when they wrere child they do not think to steal the tifin box of each other but why they expect that other friends should contact

Yes, it is due to their ego!! Actually, we people are so lost in this cut-throat competition, that we tend to forget our friends. It is not always ego that separates two good friends. It does happen that let him call first then I'll call him and eventually we forget that we were friends!!

But I always try to talk with my friedns if we have any time gap because i never feel shy infront of my friend that i called him first and i do not have any other work because i think that as we know each other from child hood we should not hide anything

i dont think its the ego-ness where if there are a long time gap when the other friend moves, and there as no communication, i thin its because they get awkward to each other because they have met other friends, and they just dont know what to say to each other anymore...

The reason that friends forget each other is lost of communication either by mail, text or email. Long distance friendship and lost of communication will soon be enough reason that they will forget each other. If friends are both near and have a chance to communicate and see each other what's the reason to forget?. If nothing happen seriously to forget each other, it is not enough reason that because of ego ness you will just forget the friendship.

Change is really inevitable.. There would come a time that even our closest best friend will be apart from us.. But don't feel so sad about that, probably the friend is just taking some time to miss her friend.. I bet that there will be a reconciliation between the 2
