Hi everyone, so it's been a while since my friend (21F, 21F) hasn't texted me back. She uses a lot of arguments saying that she's really worried about her new job and personal problems. However, I always see her posting things on Instagram and going to other places with her friends. They're people who've hurt me a lot in the past, since they've made jokes about my skin color (I'm black). I never go to the same places as them (it was when we were about 12y, but I still don't feel comfortable). However, this made me feel upset and like a second option, because it seems like she always texts me when she needs to vent. Like, if she's too busy to say "hi", why wouldn't she be out with her other friends all the time?

The fact that we don't go out together much is because my study schedule doesn't match up with the hours and days that she works, but we've always kept each other updated and at least said "good morning" (like 3x per week).

i understand that it may be a "silly" situation, but she's been my friend (or so I think) since we were 6 years old, and it's hurting me. It's been almost a month since she sent me a message (she sent one today saying that she misses me and everything is going so fast for her). im thinking about dont answer her anymore, but I don't know if it's too extreme.

what do you guys think? Her birthday is in a few days and I don't know if I should wish her

edit: english is not my first language, so sorry if said smth wrong
