- Go to I WAS UNAWARE WE WERE NO LONGER FRIENDS
Thanks for the comments everyone
I gave him his flag back and left him a letter (Since he said he had no desire to see me) telling him the way I feel and that I will back off and let it be.
I have many other friends, just very few who I have known as long. A few years back one of my friends who I had not seen for a while came back to town and then fell into a coma and died before I got the chance to see him again. Since then I have tried to keep in real good touch with my friends. Here we have one friend, who was also friends with the friend who died, who seems to want to go the other way. It just doesn't make any sense to me.
LostInLife- I kept trying to get contact him to get together and do something, he is the one who was avoiding me and today he even said out right that he just had no desire to have anything to do with me. That was one of the things that really hit me hard.

I WAS UNAWARE WE WERE NO LONGER FRIENDS
I recently went through something like this with one of my best friends. She flat out told me to get over it, and it broke my heart. For a few days I was genuinely bothered by it, but I finally realized something...If she didn't want me in her life, then that was her problem. I am awesome, and so are you. Those who don't feel they don't need you in their lives, let them go, you will have more energy to spend on those who do.

maybe he's ticked...
because if you haven't talked in awhile and the next time you want to talk to him you want something of his... Or maybe he has issues with his wife and had a bad day that day.. I feel for you and he should know how it upset you, like was said earlier, give him back his flag and tell him how you feel.

Very strange Kooka!
I am trying to figure out why an old friend has ditched me too...no clue at all! People can certainly be an odd bunch of coconuts!

There are many explanations as to why he acted that way. No one really knows what goes on behind closed doors in other peoples home. Give him some time........let things settle.....give him his flag back.......and when you're ready.........reach out to him. If you have been friends for that long, it seems to me it's worth saving. Good luck.

people act strange
take it from someone who have known people for a few more years than you have.
i think i have learned not to let other people's problems affect me in that i somehow feel things are my fault.
it's never my fault.
