A longtime friend dropped out of my life. We did not have a fight, she just stopped responding. I kept up the phone messages and occasional cards for a year. Then I sent a plant asking if she would tell me what was wrong. I sent a card or two more, but I have respect her decision that she no longer wants contact with me. I feel sad and confused by her decision.

I'm going through the same thing right now. A close friend is the only person outside of my professional 'help' circle who knows of my depression. In fact, it was due to her encouragement that I sought help when I was suffering a major depression earlier this year. It hasn't been as long, but I know she has been communicating with other people in our 'circle' of friends. I don't understand. Just when my self-esteem was starting to improve.

I guess this is a part of life? People come and people go.
