This happens a lot more than you think. If you tried keeping the friendship going, but it’s not working, now is the time to stop chasing them. Chasing them will only make you desperate and needy and push this friend away. Learn how to be genuinely busy in your life pursuing your goals and hobbies, while interacting with other people on the side. Easiest way to get started is to find something you enjoy doing and keep doing it overtime. You will build that much needed self confidence and self esteem. On the side, learn how to connect with people and build social skills. People are hardwired to be repulsed by neediness and desperation. They gravitate towards somebody who is self confident and well rounded in life. Chase excellence, not people.
