My best friend is pulling away.

“It feels like my best friend is pulling away from me. She’s spending more time with the friends and less time with me. I’m hurt but obviously can’t say, “Stop spending time with other people.” I just want to feel included and like she still cares about me. But I feel like bringing anything up […]
