Thread: Help me out with some advice...Should I forget all about this 'friendship'???

Hi , this is a bit if an unusual post.....but here goes
Just a question regarding a 'friend' of mine.... Been friends with this person over a year now we both have children, share some interests, we used to get on really well untill we fell out over something (totally not on my side at all) and ever since we got back 'friendly' again I havent totally been able to shake the accusation that was made towrds me, even though I did get an apology and honestly I used to love spending time with my friend, but now I am more careful what I say, things I do etc, I sometimes think are we only 'friends' again as we live quite close to each other and would see each other almost daily anyway if you know what I mean...... If I lived a good distance from this person I am wondering would I have bothered accepting the apology, or maybe I only did it as I wasnted less tension and awkwardness at meetings,
I feel this person take cheap digs at me whenever possible (they have a bit of a superiority complex I think) and everything that involves this persons children is sooo much better than everything I do for my own child (it hurts sometimes) and gets me down actually that I feel so self concious...I am even wondering writing this is this a friendship or what. It used to be now I am not so sure.
I just wonder if I am as well trying to move when I can and cutting this person out of my life...any advice? has anyone been in a similar position?

I have been in a similar position, and it has worked out. It allowed us to honestly say what had been kept inside, and made us both realize that we are great acquaintances, but black and white when it came to what we expected in a friendship.

We still talk, and we aren't as close, but neither one of us have the issues we did when we where 'friends'.
