Have you tried not to talk with a friend for a long time because of a conflict?

Hi, I have experienced this too. I'm the kind of person who really value friendship very much.. Since I'm the eldest, I like to have someone older than me to be my sister, atleast I can feel what it is to have someone you can talk to.. I've met so many friends.. but this friend I met when I attended college was the best among all those people that became my friends.. She really showed me she cared for me, and we treated each other as sisters. We shared everything we have, good times, bad times.. until one day, I just don't what happened she wasn't there for me anymore.. Even if we're in the same room, she's as if I wasn't there. as if she doesn't saw me.. And that hurts me so much.. I tried to talk to her, to ask her what happened.. to clear everything but she doesn't want to talk to me anymore.. and after that, we didn't have any communication.. I tried to reach her on the phone every christmas and on her birthday but nothing.. I just hoped we meet again in the future.. :-(

Yeah, I've done that before. Sometimes when I have some type of argument or disagreement about something and I feel really frustrated or angry, I usually just avoid them or stop talking to them for a while so that I can get over it. The hardest part for me is to start talking to them again because it's easy to not talk to them anymore, but when you start avoiding them and you continue on non-speaking terms, you can easily lose friendships that way. I usually try to be the one to start talking to them again but sometimes I have so much pride I can't bring myself to begin it.

People say, one cannot choose their parents but can choose, their friends afterall it's we who finally give a nod, to be or not to be, oops... the famous quotation,used in different context, but still I go with it, where was I, yaa but sometimes we have to make befriend, someone whom we don't like too, in such case it doesn't worry me at all, but if he's a dear friend of mine I'll make every effort to clear the differences, misunderstandings or whatever but if he still tries to avoid me then I'll definitely give him some time but this time I won't make a first move.

Yes, I have, but it didn't worked. I mean i tried it, but after a week I go to him and want to make it up, because I thought highly on him!

Hi. This post had a connection with me. Until now I never talked with my friends. He is a bit younger than me. The conflict happens when we attending a sports carnival. He uses some harsh words to me just because I'm not helping him carrying things to the field. At that time I was so busy that I'm really cannot help him. It really touch my heart because not just only he is not respect me as a his friend but he is not respect me as an older person than him. I still don't know what to do. Should I continue boycott him or make over again with him. : Peace No War!!!

I don't think this is really possible for me..I cannot remain without talking with my friend..Once in my school days, I got a conflict with my best friend..and I did not talk with her for more than 10 days..After 10 days, when we were just analysing the problem , we found how silly it was..there was nothing to fight in that issue...We were really ashamed that we had not talked with each other for many days..So from that I keep it a point that I will be the first person to talk with my friend even though the mistake would be of the other prson...
