Dissolving Friendship

Ashley • 👧🏽🧑🏽

I feel that I am spending too much time obsessing over this and need the input of my Glow sisters, LOL. So… I literally been friends with this person for over 20+ years. I thought as we both become mothers and married that are friendship would grow. In the last couple years, it has become very one sided. Her lack of interest in my life has become very obvious to me as I have stopped talking about myself completely. The more I obsess over it. I realize the only times we have every hung out where on her terms.

I am also friends with her sister whom she doesn’t speak or interact with. Because of this she has never attended any sort of social gathering I have hosted in the last 4 years. I am debating inviting her to my baby shower with the knowledge that her sister will be there as a last effort. I have distanced myself from our friendship because it genuinely makes me sad that she has not noticed. However, I have never mentioned my feelings. Is it time for me just to let the relationship go? Should I have an honest conversation with her? Is it even worth it to open a can worms? As we are both pregnant and hormonal. And of course, we will both feel we are right and have been wronged.
