So im probably going to end my friendship with my best friend. She's the first close friend I've ever had, but she's just been a bad friend to me. She'll take weeks to respond to my texts, or simply won't respond, and I'm sick of it. I tried talking to her about it, but she's not changing her behavior. Something needs to change, so I'm sending her this:

"I'm genuinely upset with how you treat me. I've been trying to let it go, but I'm simply not okay with not being responded to for weeks when I text you.

I know you're bad with texting, but every time I talk to you about this you say you'll try to be better, yet proceed to continue the same bad habit. I don't expect you to respond seconds after my text goes through, but it'd be nice if it didn't take months to complete a single conversation.

If you're just not into texting, tell me. If the issue is just the way we communicate, I'd be more than happy to find a different way to talk. Calling, FaceTime, whatever.

I just feel so unimportant to you, like I'm not worth you're time. I hate feeling like that, and I doubt you mean to convey that idea, but it's what your actions are telling me. I know I deserve to be treated with respect, so if you can't put in the effort to make me feel like a person, let me know.

I don't want to continue our friendship if this is how it's gonna be.

With that being said, if I have been a bad friend to you I want to know what I need to change. Clearly, I don’t expect you to stick around if I've been awful without realizing it. But I can't justify our lack of communication and think our friendship is ay-okay.

Communicating is the number one, biggest, most important aspect of a relationship, and I believe that wholeheartedly. That's why I'm trying to talk to you about this instead of just cutting my losses and ghosting you. If there's a way to fix this, I want to. But if we decide there's not, then I'll decide what I want to do.

Please talk to me."

If there's anything I should change, let me know. I want the text to convey, "I want to be your friend, but I won't continue this relationship if it'll keep putting me in a bad place."

Also, what would you do in this situation???
