How do i make up with a friend i was close with at one time?

i used to live next to my friend, we were pretty close and our sons were best friends. than i moved not once, but twice. the 2nd time was to the next town over which is only 10 minutes away. but we've just stopped being friends and i find both of us making up excuses not to let our kids b together. example, no sleep over, we're out of town the next day, which we were, but it was just out of our way. and she wouldn't let her son go to the TMNT movie with my son, for no reason. we were good friends and we still should be. i'd like to get married in the next 2-3yrs and would like her to be there. what can i do to be better friends with her?? it includes working around my graveyard shift and her day shiftHow do i make up with a friend i was close with at one time?
Sounds like your work schedules conflict with each other. Keep in touch with her any way you can and let her know how you feel about the friendship. Honesty is the best policy!!! When life take you at storm, there is really no way you can really push around that!!! Let her know you want to see her at your wedding and invite her!!! She will appreciate it!How do i make up with a friend i was close with at one time?
Couldn't you two meet up before you go to work and after she is off? Technically second shift? Meet up for coffee or a meal. Don't let the distance be a reason not to have your best friend around. Nothing is stopping you from calling her when she should be home is there? Maybe start with that and see if you can't make plans for just the two of you to hang out together.
Talk to your friend and let her know that you miss her friendship. There's no doubt in my mind that she misses you too. Make some kind of arrangement of the two of you guys to get together and hang out, despite your different schedules. It is up to you guys to make this work out. True friendships last forever and it is hard to find good friends these days. Not only can you strengthen your relationship with her, you can also have the opportunity for your son and her son to bond as well. Do what you think is best. Good luck.
what you have to face is everyone changes. maybe for some reason she has decided she doesn't want to be friends. if she is avoiding you, you had better wake up and smell the coffee.. leave it alone.


it was at a time when it worked, it doesn't now, move on......a real friend doesn't make excuses, they make plans... perhaps this is more of a one sided friendship and she is the other side.........
the samething happened to me and my friend with working and life everyday. i try to call her everyday we meet up for lunch or we go walking after work. or on weekends we do a girls day out but sense you have kids go to the park or the movies with the kids.
