@eboni-k-johnson I have been ghosted as well. it was painful because we had one disagreement in all the years we were friends. otherwise we were good. eventually I understood why she stopped speaking. we're cool on Facebook and it's all good. ☺

This is a really good discussion. I admit I ghosted what turned into a bad friendship. I've been going back and forth about whether or not I owe her an explanation or the opportunity to at least discuss. This discussion has me REALLY thinking

Oooo Fran that statement about looking at someone and being repulsed but not knowing how to mentally get out hit me. I can 100% relate! Thank goodness for growth! 🙌

This episode was so triggering for me because I'm dealing with this now. I was in an entire friend group after college and I left the group in 2016 because the communication was terrible and most of the individual friendships were one sided. During my grieving period, I found this podcast as well as all “The Read”, “Jade & XD”, and was patiently waiting on “Gettin Grown” to drop. All of you helped me work on myself and get some good laughs in the process. Cut to three weeks ago, after not seeing or speaking to them for 3 years, I saw them at a house warming party for a person that was also in the group. Our interaction was just like old times. However, after the party, I felt better that the situation was addressed but like Dustin, I told myself that I wouldn't put any expectations on rebuilding the friendship unless everyone was putting their best foot forward. This way no one would be disappointed if things didn't work out. I will see how this plays out.

So love this conversation about managing lost friendships. I was in a best friendship with a super religious person who published a hate blog about me in one of our mutuals Christian publications after we fell off lmbo. We both just kind of stopped all contact and I went on in the healthiest way that I knew how. I do honor my past friendships by not disrespecting any secrets info etc. that they shared w me at that time. I find it important to end things on the healthiest note and take what Ive learned from those relationships. In the end, in true leo fashion, once Im done though....Im Done, done.
