[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Been there, OP.  It stinks.  Someone I thought was a very close friend totally checked out when my mom died suddenly and it really altered our friendship going forward.  On the flip side, some unexpected people reached out and kept reaching out and it made a terrible time more tolerable.  I’m sorry you’re struggling, OP, and I hope things improve for you.[/quote]

Is there any way the silent friends could apologize that would be okay? I was going through a tough personal time when my friend's mom died and I sent some texts and meant to send flowers and a loving card... And I didn't. I'm so ashamed, but don't know how to remedy.[/quote]

I am not the PP. Do you feel you can make yourself vulnerable and reach out to your friend? Write a letter or email, ask to meet in the park, and be honest? If a friend abandoned me in my time of need but later was honest, expressed remorse, and changed her behavior moving forward, I would at least be open to the idea of rekindling the friendship.[/quote]
