Why don't you see if she'll meet you somewhere and you two can sit down and calmly DISCUSS what is wrong?? Ask her NICELY to tell you what went wrong -- ask her what she's mad at. Let her tell you why she's "hurt" (if in fact she IS hurt) but put it that way so that gives her an "out" so-to-speak. You don't want to appear to be accusing her of anything because then she'll get on the defensive right off the bat -- So just ask her why she's "hurt."

A friendship of 17 years CAN'T just be thrown away -- you two have shared everything. You have to try everything you can to save it, or you'll regret it. If meeting doesn't work, at least you'll have the knowledge that you tried the best you could to save it.

Best of luck and I hope & pray that it works. Let us know, will you? God bless. Hugs, Lee

Thank you for your reply and advice. I have tried several times to talk to her over the past several months, always calmly, and we seem to get nowhere. I should add that I am not the only one having issues with her. A mutual friend of ours has also told me that she has become a different person, and they are not as close as they used to be because of this.
