the last person i could call my best friend until recently... we havent had a proper conversation in so long. the past entire year it has mostly felt like i've been talking to an auto-reply bot because if i write, she only ever sends one word, one sentence, or one emoji as a reply. she didn't look to talk with me anymore, ever. i had wondered if perhaps i had made her uncomfortable, or made a mistake somewhere, so i asked her, but she said i had done nothing at all. she was just "bad at replying" but then i... i've seen her be so active on every social media, and talk with everyone, hang with everyone. i don't even know what she's up to anymore. we have always had a very open friendship when it comes to being sincere and honest with one another. we've never been afraid to express ourselves with each other, which is why through the years we never had any misunderstandings or the like. so i thought i would might as well be honest and ask if i could talk to her about how her... lack of communication had been making me feel, as she was my best friend. so i did. funnily enough, she was actually so quick to respond when we talked about this. and in the end, she said that she understood, that she never meant to make me feel hurt or lonely or anything like that, that she would try to be better and prevent it from happening again, but she also said that she wanted to give me a proper, longer and better-articulated answer, but that she was gonna need a little time to process everything. i said of course, no problem, no rush. as of today, it has been three months without me receiving anything from her at all. i want to hear from her so badly. i want her to tell me how she's doing, what she's been up to, what she's been thinking. i want to communicate with her the way we would have a year ago. i don't want to pretend like we are mere acquaintances who simply follow each other on social media and only ever go as far as liking a picture. she's no stranger. she was my best friend. but it feels like i'm losing her. and i don't want to lose her at all, but i also don't want to message her in case she feels pressured or forced to talk. the last thing i want is for her to talk to me out of obligation.

Hey, I just read your story, and I just wanted to say I know how you feel, to lose someone you thought you knew so well, turn to a stranger, or worse pretend like they done even know you. i wanted to reach out and show my support!
that your not alone.
That others can relate and are inspired by your story.
Replyyou could always talk to her in person, since typing causes too much confusion because you can’t see the person’s non-verbal behaviors, let alone hear their voice, so you know how bored or excited they are about whatever you’re saying.
