Today, I decided that since my best friend of 25 years always finds a reason not to come when I invited her to see the house I bought 6 months ago, I would stop asking, and wait for her to make the first move. Did I say today? I meant 14 months ago. I'm still waiting. I guess we're not friends anymore. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, after I moved across country to move in with my best friend, she decided to move in with her boyfriend a month into me being here. I don't know anyone here. She hasn't been home in 4 months and recently any time we've made plans, she stands me up. FML
Today, my best friend told me she no longer wants an "active friendship" with me. She says she doesn't have time to see me, since she has a boyfriend and a bunch of friends she's spent years bitching to me about. We've gone from a 14-year friendship to awkwardly nodding at each other in the street. FML
Today, I texted a friend who I met some years ago. I had been asking her for months when she wanted to get together. Each time she said how she was basically too busy. Today was different, she said she was glad for the friendship but her daughter is busier now with new things, and doesn't want to get together. FML
Today, I figured out why my 'best friend' hasn't talked to me in weeks. She assumed an FML post she read was about her. It was posted in 2009. I met her last year. FML
Today, my friend told me to move on from having feelings for her, despite me accepting that we were only friends several months ago. FML
Today, it's week four of my best friend, who "wasn't interested", still being on a drunken bender after I told her I was possibly going to see someone new. FML.
Today, I moved back to my home town. My best friend and I had arranged to rent a house together that we both liked. I finished my last day at work and made the three-hour drive, only for her to break down and tell me that she isn't "ready" to move out of her parents' basement. She's 25. FML
Today, for the first time in months, my best friend agreed to hang out with me. After waiting, three hours for him to show up, I called to see what was taking him so long. He told me he couldn't come because he needed to get a haircut. FML
Today, a friend told me he no longer wishes to be my friend, not because I did something, just because he no longer looks forward to seeing me, counts down every minute until a socially acceptable time to leave, and is always thinking up excuses to either be late or not come at all. Wow, just wow. FML
Today, my sister, who used to be my best friend, texted me asking why we never talk anymore. Hmm, maybe it’s because she stopped answering my calls, texts, carrier pigeons, smoke signals, psychic reachings, and every other form of communication since she got a new boyfriend six months ago. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I'm the same kind of friend. I really struggle to keep in touch and often my health or mental health comes in the way. As adults we all struggle with some things - some more and some less. It's on you to decide wether you can handle it or not. Good luck :)

Were you bragging about the house? Rubbing it in her face? Is it a nice, fancy house? Maybe she was tired of hearing about it, especially if she's not in a position to have something as extravagant. If none of these are true, then I have no idea.

Sounds like you want to show off your house and rub her nose in her failure to have as good a house as yours. If you were a real friend, you'd meet for coffee and donuts at Timmy's.

Why do you care so much. I go through my phone all the time and if I have not communicated somehow with someone in 6 months, I purge them from my phone and social media. I mean really, being fixated on a “friend” for 14 months? Get a life

I had to cut off my best friend of 33 years. it sucks but sometimes people are just in your life for a season. you grew in a different direction and they went theirs

Yeah, I experienced that with my former best friend. I still speak with him when we meet, and we still meet maybe a couple times a year at social gatherings, but we haven't really hung out together for 7 years. Some friends are just not very good friends. I feel for you, it hurts like hell
