Recently, my best friend dropped me. It upset me badly, and over and over. I tried to figure out what I did was wrong. I found out I'm not the only friend she dropped. She didn't drop all her friends the same time but she eventually does drop them. A couple years ago, she had a friend she dropped, one year ago she had another friend she dropped now me. She also made new friends now. What does this mean when someone does this?

or:what do you mean dropped you like on the floor are you a ballerina or something please let me know more details
or:You assume her behaviour is rational. This is misguided. Whilst there might be an obscure rationale behind all this, the fact that your research (presumably) yielded naught save for dead ends, means either that it's too complex to reverse engineer, or you lack crucial considerations in the decision.I can describe a somewhat similar experience. For myself, friendship & best-friendship have been fluid concepts - any one would not last beyond a few years. Following the initial meeting, both of us would find interest in new concepts; a few would be mutual, some we would discuss and draw one another, some would be of no interest to one party etc. Over time, we'd befriend people with whom current enthusiasm manifested more intensely, and interaction with old friends lessened consequently, to the point of halfhearted tip of the hat or somesuch. The social obligation at times feels more awkward than the possible future utility of the relationship, especially in a one sided drift. There is constant change in the modern environment, many stimulants to the mind are available; the lifelong bonds of old radiate a mythical implausibility under these circumstances.Then again, I detect a hint of referring to virtual friendship in your question. Whilst it seems less rigid than the RL counterpart, I've seen some folks maintain their lists with a fervour, correlating with current disposition rather than leaving them forever as loose threads.Either way, I would advise against all of this. You were / are upset, and thinking your way out is unlikely to succeed. You aren't at war with the lass, and don't have to strategise around her defences. Ask her why. If the connection has dissolved, let go.
or:You need to understand what it means to have a friend especially a best friend.To enjoy the privilege of having a friend, you have to accept the responsibility of being a friend. That involves a commitment\u2014you feel an obligation to care about your friend.Although friendships with that level of commitment are rare, most friendships flourish when companions are committed, or feel some obligation, to each other.\u2014Prov. 17:17; 18:24.And when true friends have misunderstandings, they are quick to make amends and forgive each other. Real friends do not abandon their friends just because the road gets bumpy. Ask yourself. Did the person agree to be your best friend? Did you ignore the bad traits as the friendship progress? These are just a few questions. Now that you have some ideas of what a friend is. Now ask yourself the question you are seeking an answer for.For more information on this subject and others, please go to jw.org \"Online Library.\" Also for free downloads, publications or read online.
