Do people stop being avoidant and actively try to repair friendships eventually?
I think this is a fairly rare occurrence. Say you might have had a friend but had a falling out, but either you or they make right eventually and the friendship returns stronger than ever.
I understand some friendships do not last forever, and sometimes people drift apart over irreconcilable differences. But I wonder if this has happened with any anons. A long time friend falls out with you, months and maybe even years past before you reconnect and you both are on speaking terms again.

Yes it’s possible. I reconnected with an old friend. She and I got in a fight and were no contact 12 months basically a year? The estimate relies on your most recent interactions. If it’s been months/ years of no contact then it’s always ok to give a try and reach out. See how they respond. If your last interaction was 3 months ago, and it was on okay terms then it’s a greener light.

Reflect first why you wish to reconnect and what this person means to you, to avoid fucking up in any way

goodluck op

Do you?

I wouldn't have made my thread and worded it the way I did if I haven't tried in the past.
What about you?

Fuck you I ain't making up with some prick who sold me out

No. Friendship broke for a reason.

If they did something unforgivable then it doesn't follow under the purview of my question.

I used to maybe think so. But then you realize they didn’t actually grow up, they just realized being friends with you carries benefits, so it isn’t worth continuing to act like faggots, so they put it on hold.

People don’t change and if you are still “making friends” in 2024 you are still asleep and most likely won’t make it.

> bb bb b but my normiescum r different
Nope. Nowadays they instantly pull out the phones and ask for your instagram. Not having it makes you untouchable to most of them so its a win win.

I don’t have to deal with faggots, and they don’t have to act surprised one day if I explode from their years of backhanded bullshit.

Most people do this eventually if it's a friend they have known for a long time, unless the friendship ended due to a major betrayal. Sometimes it's months or years down the line. Very few people are willing to let years go down the drain due to a misunderstanding or a falling out. Although there are types of people who refuse to make peace with others too, but those types of people tend to be in a bad place mentally so act like petty tyrants who are overtly spiteful, stubborn, or vindictive.

I've had friends so both. A friendly ex has come back to talking with me while a close friend who lives right next door refuses to interact with me outside of being polite when we happen to both be coming or going
