Should I be hurt or upset that my friend of 8 years unfriended me today?

Should I be hurt that my friend of 8 years thinks that I have changed and that she no longer has anything in common with me?

Should I be hurt that my friend of 8 years doesn't want to take the time to read about my life any more?

Should I be hurt? It's only LJ. It's only internet. We never really talk any more. I rarely see her. Should I be hurt?

So why am I?

I think you have every rite to be somewhat hurt. I'm sure it would bother me. But please keep in mind that you both probably have changed a great deal - I mean, who doesn't in 8 years? I'm sure this has more to the ways in which she has changed rather than how she feels that you have changed.

Hmmmm...if you're talking about Sandy, well, I suppose I've changed too much too. *rolls her eyes*

I don't know what to think about it. I suppose it's not that big of a deal, in the grand scheme of things, since I've been excessing more and more of Mu/TSO/SF out of my life, but, I never had anything against Sandy.

Ah, well, tis life, I suppose.

Since I know you read my post last week, you'll know that I totally know how you feel. It sucks...even when people change, if you're friends THAT long, unless they change into a criminal of sorts, and even then really, you should still have that friendship.

But very few people know what friendship means anymore. *HUG*

*hug* feel what you must feel. People change, that's a truth. I remember when one of my friends said that they would love me forever and ever, but sad to say that it crashed and burned.

*hug* I hope you feel better, sweetie.

I would be hurt too, but you have a lot to offer and I hope you don't take it too personally. Sometimes people drift apart, and its always sad when they do but you have to remember how many friends you have now, the people who care about you, and the people who love who you are. In the grand scheme of things, you've probably gained a lot more friends in the last 8 years than you've lost; remember all the people who still care about you and think about you. You have a lot of people who think you're fabulous and take interest in the little things, that is something to be proud of.

Sure you can be hurt - I would be! You may have changed, but I can't imagine that you'd have changed in an undesirable way. Even if you don't have much in common anymore, you're still a great person to know, and I can't imagine why someone wouldn't want to keep you as a friend.

People and things change over the course of time. One cannot change that.

Its sad that things have turned out that way. Some friendships last a short period of time and some last longer. Perhaps they will mull things over and you two will become friends again?

People get hurt by things, whether it be through the internet or said in real life. People are people. People have feelings. Feelings hurt sometimes. End of story.

*hugs tightly* I wish I could give you a real hug right now... :( but I guess this will have to do for the moment. Sowwie.
