Plus: It bugs me that my teenage nephew won’t call me ‘Aunt.’
It may not be too late to ask for the necklace, provided you can locate your “long-lost” friend.I am printing your letter because I am sure you and your sister are not the only folks who have done this, which is why grieving family members are advised to postpone making serious decisions for one year after the demise of a loved one.I have been friends with a woman for 40 years. We used to work together, and we supported each other during our divorces and other life problems.
Since she retired six months ago, I haven’t heard from her. She comments online and “likes” things I post, but that’s it. I had to accept that she no longer wanted to continue our friendship. And yes, we have discussed this before. Am I wrong to let it go and move on?Sometimes in life we must make a conscious decision to do what’s right for ourselves. In a case like the one you have described, it is not onlywrong to let go of a relationship that has withered, it is healthier. Move on and waste no more time looking back.I love being an aunt, but my teenage nephew calls me by my first name.
