I also think it is a long distance friend. In any case I believe the author deserved respect and closure. I didn’t even get a feeling that she was preoccupied. I think her friend just abruptly created distance in relationship without any explanation, and it is a normal and healthy reaction to try and clarify things. It seems like her friend just wanted to terminate the friendship, but was not able to do it gently and respectfully. It is hurtful .

2024-12-05 02:24:47 +0000 UTCI just listened to this and was interested in the friend breakup story. (Getting blocked by the ex-friend sounded rough and like a closed door.) I got the sense the friend lived overseas and they did not hang out in person anymore. I found a helpful 2023 NYT article on friends ghosting and ambiguous loss: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/04/12/well/family/friendship-ghost.html. I used the Reader mode to access it.
