Hello! I'm a long-time lurker but have never posted before.

I have a complicated relationship with a friend. In the past I idealized her tremendously but I have gotten over that. I don't think she thinks the relationship is complicated, but I overanalyze everything. I'm quite introverted and don't have a lot of close friends. My husband is my true best friend.

There have been a lot of ups and downs (in my head) about this friendship. Sometimes I just want to drop her as a friend so I will stop thinking about it. But we've been friends for many years and because of where we live, my job, etc., I will continue to see her quite regularly. I'm just so tired of overanalyzing what she does and if she even likes me. I think the friendship means more to me than to her.

Thank you for listening. I'm not sure how to get myself out of this situation.
