Soemone whi is always there for you, and is always honest with you. Even when its nto what you want to hear.  A friend never judges you but gives you thier real opinon when asked, and just listens when you dont want any advice.  there are far too few good friends in life, so hold on to the few youll find!

It's possible. I'm doing it right now. The trick is to put asside the hurt and the lost dreams and hopes. They're in the past. And to bring them up carries with them the bitterness, the resentment and the pain of loss and that just spins you up again. If you can get past all the old feelings and start working towards how you can be just helpful, supportive friends, then you're half way there. Good luck. It IS possible as long as both of you work on it.

With compassion.  Your friend probably needs you more now than ever before.  It will be difficult, as it is with anyone you know is dying, but just being a friend is the best thing you can do.

Try to introduce yourself to someone that you think might be a good friend other wise go into a chat room. And meet someone there and just tell them you just want a friend to talk to.

I've seen it before so many times and I sympathize.  I personally would re-assert the boundaries of your friendship with her in a nice way, emphasizing how that kind of behaviour could jeapordize your friendship with her and that you'd hate to lose her as the great friend she is over something like that.  Best of luck.

Be patient, don't push (or try to hurry the friend thing)be nice, open yourself to all ages, learn manners and use them, be polite and friendly, volunteer somewhere-get involved, don't take all your friends time-go slow, don't pester, be helpful when you see an opportunity, smile often, don't gossip even if your friend does, don't find fault or be unkind to anyone. \n\nGet involved in something-volunteer at the hospital or animal shelter-this could change many things. Go to games or school functions, be friends with all not just a few.

Just talk to her! If she really wants to be your friend, she'll understand.

A friend maybe just what she needs,if you feel you want to be nice and help ,by all means talk to her.\ndont be afraid of that ,just be normal and yourself,say you want to understand and be of help.\nthe best advice always is to point out the pleasures of being alive and the oppertunities still awaiting.\n bad feelings are not permanent ,

Make a new friend. Start a hobby. Volunteer. In other words, keep busy and make friends. You'll put these traitors in the past and feel better.

talk to them\ntell them how you feel\n13 years of friendship is something you should try to work out\nyou might find that they have changed\npeople do grow over time\nmaybe they have matured\n\nespecially try to work it out with the one who was mad. Don't let a fight ruin a friendship.  Friends fight... that is inevitable... but the whole point is you work it out, make up and move forward.

Just consol the people that ur frienship will not change for them if u will have many friends .\nbut also be aware of fake friends who can cheat U but don't let honest friends go. because if new is silver old is gold.

You have to rely on your family members, for one thing, until you get a new set of friends.  You also have to put yourself out there, in places where you can meet people who have your same interests.  In other words, you have to begin replacing friends who had once been close confidant to you with other people.\n\nOne thing you might try is to keep a journal -- even a computerized version -- and write things down that you want to discuss with your friends if they were there for you.\n\nThose of us reading your post can empathize with you -- don't think that we do not.  Sometimes friends become so close that they almost become like brothers and sisters to us -- and when these friendships fade, it is like losing a family member.\n\nGood luck now.

Do things together that include your new and old friends like have some kind of get together.\nYou can't really force anyone to like one another when they don't really know one another yet.\nGive it time.

Ask your friend to help you.

oh dear.. this has happend to me too. The best thing to do is try your hardest (though challeging) to move ahead with your life. Time to look for new friends! Be confident, and calm. In a month or so, call up your old friend again, maybe by then she will have missed you, and ask to be friends again. If not, well, there are plenty more fish in the pond. It is the cold, hard truth!
