AITA to request my friend spend more time on me because I broke up?
Rose (33F) and I (36F) met in a dating Facebook group. We joined several gatherings in the group and became very good friends. She is very logical; I love to have her analyzing questions for me.
A few months ago, we both met our guys and started relationships. Rose was doing great with her bf, but I broke up with mine. Before breaking up, I texted all my problems and concerns to Rose daily to have her opinion. She always replies to me patiently and gives great advice. I rely on her very much.
I value her as my best friend, and I tend to include her in everything in my life. However, she is more willing to text instead of call/hang out frequently. I feel uncomfortable for her to keep space from me, especially when I just broke up and need a friend’s care.
I understand that she wants to stay with her boyfriend during weekends, so whenever I ask her out, I invite her boyfriend too. However, she told me that I was ‘too clingy.’ She also said if I have an important issue or problem, she is happy to reply at once. But it’s just ‘casual chatting’; she wouldn’t want to feel like she’s obligated to reply to me immediately. But to me, I have just broken up, I am fragile and didn’t recovered yet, ‘casual chatting’ to me is very important.
Rose and I both left the dating group after we met our guys. But after breaking up, I am joining new groups, and I planned to join some gatherings to meet new guys. But this time, Rose refused to go with me. I felt like she’s not on my side when I really need her support.
