Lately I’ve been feeling like I’m growing apart from a work friend, we used to be close ever since we worked together however she sorta started acting weird? Like just her behavior toward me was strange at work but when I’d text her she would say it was nothing. So I brushed it off and took her word for it. However when I just reached out this morning she just left me on read…
And I had asked a question and sent a meme so I kinda felt insulted. She recently began to hangout with different people at work and then she also had texted one other coworker about asking if they could refuse an assignment for her. I thought it was odd because I guess usually she’d come to me and ask something like that or text me about it. But I just didn’t wanna be weird about why she exactly went to the other coworker first since it’s not odd to text someone else about work.
But deep down I’ve been feeling some sort of way about the whole thing. We’ve been friends longer than her and the other coworkers and had hung out multiple times before she started hanging out with them. So now it feels like since they’re friends she’s just idk feeling like she doesn’t want me as a friend anymore? Maybe that’s not entirely true but to everyone at work I feel like the one who isn’t paid any attention when I talked when other people are around.
Like they’d prefer to talk to other coworkers over me. Or they just hold certain people in higher esteem over me. It just irks me because me and this coworker had gotten close and now she’s suddenly befriending other coworkers and since then I try to be friendly and idk I guess I got ignored this morning by her leaving me on read lol.
She could be busy but I felt like usually she’d reply, and idk I’ve been getting odd vibes from her. It’s just sad that some people will just drop you for another couple of friends they see to be higher value than you. I’m never the go to person at work people come to talk to and seem eager to be talking to. And I brush it off but this hits deep since I felt like me and this coworker were similar in personality and had been through a lot together.
Maybe I’m being irrational but it feels like she was just my friend until she could find better friends…
