  You are going to have a lot of friends who will just, well, drift away. Maybe you are doing the same thing to them. Life goes on. It don't mean they hate you. You just pick up other friends.

  I better get out of here. People are going to start thinking that I'm trying to be Dr.Phil. I got to much hair for that.

  There is something that you need not to wonder, especially loyalty of your friends, your lover, or even your man power, if you are a manager, unless you have doubt on them. I say that because whenever you question them, you unconsciously put into their mind suspicions on you. They might wonder why you do that to them, or whether you are doubting them or not. People always ask why or how or whatever each time they don't understand something unless they don't care about that. I am sorry to say all the things above, but I am sure it is not fictional. If you feel suspicious, you'd better work it on your own way which is not influenced by your target's observation or perception, such as asking the others. You are indeed need help :D. Good luck to you Olivia.

  I'd had friends in the past whom eventually just faded away from my life. That will happen sometimes, and sometimes it's meant to be that way. Then, I've gained other friends, some of very long standing (ten years or more), and I have more of those. Some people are just not meant to remain in your life long term, but I think that sometimes God sends people in your life for a specific reason, sometimes for a short time to accomplish something somehow, or sometimes forever to stand by you throughout your life. If you don't feel right with this person, then maybe it's time to just part ways.

  "When is a "Friend" No Longer a Friend?"

  when they stop being a friend to you. i had a friend who was my best friend since jr. high until we went off to (the same) college. she craved the spotlight & got brand new forgetting me & the other home town friends we shared. we fell out because she's the type of person that drops people when she feels someone who is more high profile comes along & we didn't speak for years. we became "best" friends again for a few years after years of not acknowledging each other, but that broke down again after we started hanging out & traveling together. she became this jealous hater & tried to sabotage me at every turn & others would tell me to leave this fool alone because she meant me no good. had to cut her out of my life once again & for good this time.

  as everyone else said, some people just fade away form your life.
