Thank you for taking time to read & giving advice, I really do appreciate it.

I've kept silent about the whole issue for a while now, believing and trusting that this lack of contact is only a temporary thing that will only last a short period of time. I'd be happy if I knew we weren't drifting apart.

However like some of you mentioned... The logical side of me is finding it difficult to believe that one of my closest friends can't find any single time for a reply at all. I know that their priorities have changed in regards to our friendships (they don't see me as a romantic interest anymore) so they probably won't contact me as much. But not a single reply at all when I've sent over three e-mails...?

It's actually rather sad that I'm so dependant on this one person, since I whole heartedly agree that one should be able to find happiness within themselves.

I'm really interested in whether I should just continue living my life like above, or letting them know that I'm there for them.

As I was considering if I should bring the issue up with them but the way Angela described it... It sounds as If I'm more likely to push someone away. Is it really that bad though, I thought that this method (honest talking) would work most of the time...
