The story

so recently i find out my male best friend of 3years has been ignoring me. I mean at first i thought he needs some time like cause he also has friends but every time we leave school I am who tries to find him and talk to him, I always try reach but not him. I am not trying to make this about myself cause even when we just stand next each other I feel like be does not want to talk to me and he knows about my difficulties with friends. And its not he does not talk to girls at all but its specifically me he is not talking to i feel very betrayed I'm not trying to act like a jealous female friend of some sort i just want to talk to me once again like we did in 8th grade. What should I do?

i understand how you're feeling, this sounds quite frustrating. individuals often have complex reasons for changing their behavior, and it can be tough to interpret those actions. in my experience, communication is key, though sometimes it doesn't yield the desired results. like once when i misunderstood a friend's silence as disinterest, only to find out later that he was dealing with personal issues. however, if your friend is not being receptive, it may be time to step back and give space, as challenging as that is, which can sometimes be the healthiest option. "time resolves most uncertainties," but it’s certainly hard when you’re going through it. just remember, not everyone will reciprocate the way you’d hope, and it might not always be about you. such dynamics can be perplexing, but i hope you find some clarity soon. 🙂
