[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the silent treatment is immature and extraordinarily passive aggressive.  I'm always shocked when someone does this to people that they are supposedly close to (best friend, spouse, relative).  I"d probably tell her that she needs to either tell you what's wrong, or risk destroying your friendship.  Evaluate whether you need someone like this in your life, she really needs to grow up.  What you describe doesn't even sound like it was her business--teasing another friend shouldn't even result in her being upset.  [/quote]

I agree with this too. A long time ago, my best girlfriend, who I considered a sister, suddenly stopped speaking to me. To this day I have no idea why. I tried to reconcile the relationship for a while to no avail. It took me years-decades even-to realize that the issue was not with me. If she had a problem with me or with something I'd done, then she should have been mature enough to discuss it with me.

I remember how upset I was realizing the friendship was over and there was nothing I could do. It was very painful and I'm sorry that you are experiencing this too. [/quote]
