why does my friend hate me?
The story
Lately, I've been feeling like my friend truly hates me and it's messing with my head. For the past few weeks, they've been acting really cold and distant, and no matter how much I try to talk to them or bring back our old vibe, it's like hitting a brick wall. We used to hang out all the time, enjoying stupid little things together. Remember last summer when we binge-watched that ridiculous reality show? 😂 But now, they barely reply to texts unless it's essential...and even then it's like pulling teeth.
I've tried reaching out several times to see if there's something that I did wrong or maybe something they're dealing with that's making them act this way; no dice. Their replies are curt, almost robotic. It's confusing and honestly quite hurtful because we were tight, like peanut butter and jelly style. And it gets under my skin - am I being overly dramatic or is there something deeper happening here? I've even asked mutual friends if they noticed anything off, but their answers were as vague as an HR meeting 'Thank you for your feedback!' 🙄 Maybe I'm just overthinking everything but I can't help worrying about what I might have done or said that could've changed things between us this dramatically.

Points of view
I totally understand where you're coming from. I've faced a similar situation before where a close friend suddenly distanced themselves without any clear reason. It turned out they were going through a tough time personally, which made them withdraw from everyone.
