[quote=Anonymous]In college we had a close friend group if 5 (3 girls, 2 guys) and we hung out throughout school. In senior year two members of the group, Anna and Connor, started dating, got married, had kids and are still together and seemingly happily married 20 years later.

For the ten years after college Anna and I worked together and four of the original five frequently got together. I moved away about eight years ago, we keep in touch with Anna through text / Facebook and I see Anna, Connor and family probably 4 times a year for a visit.

About 3 visits ago, Anna suggested that instead of doing something all together, that just she and I get together. Sure, sounds good and we had a good day.

The next visit I went to their house and Connor was there. He barely spoke to me and Anna was definitely trying to move me to another room, avoid talking to him. It was odd but I thought maybe they had had a fight or something and she just didn't want to be around him.

I visited again recently and it was equally as odd. She brought me into the house but then inmediately ushered me into a small front room and said lets visit here. I could hear Connor in the kitchen /living room and felt very strange not saying hi as I have been friends with him just as long as her although other than a brief hi and catching up during visits, I am not in contact with him.

Anna tried to explain it as he was under a lot of stress and in a bad mood so she wanted to give him space but the whole thing was just awkward and weird. At one point he came to the front room where we were and said hi and was asking her a question and she kid of shooed him away before he could say much. He stood there for a few seconds silently then just walked away. Again very awkward.

Obviously something is going on but I have no idea what. She didn't talk as though there were any issues and kind of laughed it off when I asked about the weird dynamic. As I was leaving, I said I should go say goodbye to Connor and she told me he was busy but she would say bye for me.

I now feel weird about visiting again. I could just ask her to meet me for lunch but it also feels strange to just never speak to Connor again.

I'm not sure what advice I am lookin for. Just trying to make sense of a weird situation.[/quote]
