I've found that not all broken friendships can be mended. This is because it takes two to mend them. Sometimes, just forgiving them (or making an amend by telling them you're sorry if you have real fault in it) and moving on to make new friends works... especially in the case where they aren't really your friend. There's billions of people in the world. How many of them have you met?
Yeah, well...you see i have a friend. We are friends since age 3. But we lost our contact.
Well, there was a time where i felt that she has no respect for me anymore... So, i said goodbye to our friendship. After some time she wrote me and we kinda tried to restore our friendship. But oh well- i saw that nothing has really changed. For the first time she was ok, but thn-i saw (again) same thngs why i ended our friendship. So, i just couldn't take it anymore...
She is married now and (a month ago) gave birth to a little girl. I know that she has a hard time. She has some health problems ( i know it-cause our moms are still friends). I kinda feel sorry for her. And i'm sad that we lost our friendship. I mean we used to be friends for such a long time...

let them think everything is your fault and take full blame and hope they get over it. and like AgeofKnowledge said sometime they CAN'T be broken. so don't force it you you'll just have a friend thats running over you because you're so eger to please them.
time and space helped me a lot after i had a falling out with my best friend. we'll never be as close as we once were but we can hang out and talk on the phone like normal friends again. . . .it took about 3 years though for that to happen. ^_^ good luck.
and don't forget there are plenty of other people out there willing to be your friend.

I tried sticking around after things felll about and just got attacked by his other friends for giving him space and "stressing him out" it was just harmful so i have no problem dropping friends that are just going to put my into a postion to question what kind of person I am when I know that i'm being treated wrong.
I started out falling out so yeah it was my fault but i did all i could to make amends and if that wasn't good enough then that was the end. as for missing them. . . i realized that i missed a past thats never going to be again even if we do make up we're not the same people and our relationship will never be the same. ^_^. plus i have NEW FRIENDS that are AWESOME!!!! ^_^

Did you talk to her about these things?
Maybe you have this feeling because she might be needing a friend at this time in her life. From what you said about ur relationship, that she used to hurt you, maybe you need to be more confident of urself and have a different attitude towards her if u try to get in contact with her again. People can't really go on hurting us unless we allow them.

Well, when we were just kids her mom used to compare us. Not in a good way. I'm sure my friend didn't liked it. And even now i don't understand how a mother can do somethng like that and say things like that to her child-esp. in front of her child's friend. I thought maybe that is the reason why she acted really bad towards me sometimes. Idk what is the reason. But sure-i had guts to tell her straight in her face-wht i think about all that (what she has done to me) and we both cried. Idk, what is the reason why she does act in a certain way sometimes-is it me or her!? I wish i knew. One of my family members told me that she is not worth my friendship. But this family member never liked her (and sure she has reasons for that). But still-we shared our childhood, school and many other thngs together. One of the important things that i wanna see in friendship is RESPECT. I didn't see it in our friendship anymore. That is why i ended our friendship.
