Hi Anonymous,

It is normal to have disagreements with your friends. After all you are all different people who will have different views on a lot of things other than those that bind you together. The important thing is not to let them linger. If you were in the wrong- apologise and if they were-ask for an apology if they don’t offer one or take theirs and move on.

In the interim while things are not great between you and your friends, it can feel lonely however the only way to combat that feeling is to bite the bullet and get talking again.

Often, even those friends who have been through the worst fall outs still manage to get back on track. As long as you have both learned from the experience, so you don’t repeat it and are sorry, that’s all that really matters.

I would suggest if they have not made a move yet that you be the more direct one here. If you are good friends then the likelihood is that they are missing you and want to go back to things the way there were too.
