Hey guys I need some advice on a situation. On Friday night, a friend of mine got admited to the hospital, and I didn't find out till yesterday. I was going to stop by and see her after work, but I didn't. Today, I want to at least go and say hi and give her the card I brought. But I don't know. Let me explain. A few months ago we stopped talking. Nothing really happened between us, it was just one of those "you're on my sh*t list" things. It started over something as ridiculous as one of us being in a bad mood and one of said something, and it was just taken the wrong way. You know how it goes sometimes with people you've been friends with for a long time, and those you're really close to. Anyway, a mutual friend of ours saw me today and she asked if I had been up to see her, and I said no cause I'm not sure if she wants to see me, or how she'll react. This mutual friend also said I don't have to make a big deal out of it, just stop by and see how she is. She told me you guys have been good friends for a really long time, and that despite whatever started the whole not talking thing, should be put aside, and that no matter what, it will make her feel better to know that I care.

I hear what our mutual friend is saying, but I've been debating with myself about whether to go and see her after work or not. Then if I do go, what do I say? I mean I know whatever is going on between us will blow over, but I do want to let her know that I'm concerned and I do care about her.

So any advice on this would be greatly appreciated. What would any of you do in a situation like this? What would you say? This girl and I have been friends for a long time, and literally she has been to hell and back with me. I know if the situation were reversed, I'd want her to come see me. Thanks again in advance for help in this.
 
If You Want To Go See Her, Then Go See Her. The Words Will Come To You Once You See Her.
 
Just go with the flow Meggy! When you see her who knows...you'll both probably break out in :sosad cuz you're glad to see each other again! 😀

Good luck! 🙂
 
when i was pregnant, my best friend and i werent speaking the whole time!!!

but when she heard i had the baby, she came right away to the hospital to see us....and i welcomed her

i mean if u were friends long enough, these are the times u need to be there for eachother...and a friend being in the hospital out weighs some petty shit that happened months ago 🙂
 
even if you decide to wait til she comes come. you can always call on the phone saying you r dropping by.
 
It sounds more like you might be fear saying the "S" word but just by going should take care of that. good friends know when the other one is "S" and showing you care is enough. Thats whats important
 
Aren't you a journalist major Meg? girl you will know what to say😉 go visit her, let the past be in the past. you have an opportunity to make amends with each other, some people never get that chance.😉
 
Thanks guys!!

Just to update: I did go to see her after I finished work Sunday. I guess it was just a case of nerves or something. I finally just told myself to stop being stupid and go see her, the worst that could happen would be her telling me to get out of her room. It went ok. The look on her face though when she saw me was one of surprise but also glad that I did come. I'm glad I went too. I didn't stay long, but I told her I hoped she gets better and that everything goes well. I nearly lost it when I saw her, but I held it together until I left. I'm glad I went, cause I know I'd prolly regret it if I didn't. So thanks again everyone. She's still in, and I'll probably end up going to see her for a little bit during my dinner break.
