My bestie girl friend often goes ‘MIA’ whenever she feels down. What should I do?
We knew each other for 10 over years since pri sch. Grew up & experience life tgt. Can talk about anything and everything. My comfort zone and a really good friend. We’re the low-key kind of friendship-knowing that even if we don’t see each other for months or years we’ll always be in each other’s heart.
The only thing I dislike about her is that she’s an over thinker and tends to be abit more negative. She gets emo and affected easily. Hence, sometimes hanging out with her tends to affect me as well due to the ‘negative vibes’ around her.
Also, She oftens ‘MIA’ on WhatsApp/ IG etc whenever she feels down or a need to ‘take a break’ to be alone & won’t reply to anyone’s messages.
As a good friend, I try to stand in her position and do know that it’s just her healing & coping mechanism. It’s a way for her to heal herself. However I just dislike the ‘MIA’ part as I can’t be always the one waiting for her to be back in the friendship and MIA whenever she feels like.
I cherish our friendship but it’s hard for me to understand her actions & it’s affecting me. But I don’t think it’s good to tell her this because everyone deals with things differently.
I really love her as my bestie. Even though she tries to fix her mentality issues to be more positive there’s still a ‘negative’ aura around her (idk how to explain) and I rlly dislike the negative aura around her as I do get affected as well.
Do y’all have any good friend that are like this? What should I do? Should I continue this friendship?
