So it is totally frustrating when that person who I care about and trust then starts to drift away. When there isn't an equal give-and-take in the relationship (both of us calling periodically to check in, both of us setting up times to hang out, etc) I start to feel uncomfortable. Like maybe she's over me (I'm boring, I annoyed her, she's busy with other friends). So I tend to still check in causally here and there, and I wait and hope she'll show me a sign that she still wants to be my friend (emails me to meet up, for example). If that never happens, I might ask her what's up, but I won't push if she brushes me off ("oh, I'm just so busy right now"). But inside I feel really, really hurt and I just let the relationship go. And so does she. Which ends up making me feel like something is completely wrong with me.
