One thing I can't stand is lie. My best friend was dishonest with me. Moreover, she doesn't even try to keep contact with me. How do I forgive her? Is it really possible?

Know that it's not you. Your bestfriend's lie says something about her that see has trouble with. She has trouble with something in her life and feels this need to lie. Ask yourself if you want to stay in contact with her. She is your bestfriend but she dishonest to you. And does not stay in contact with you. If you still want her in your life then try talking with her. Tell her how you feel. It might be that she has somethings in her life that might not be going right.

If she does not appreciate you and respect you enough to be honest than maybe its best that she not be too close to as of now. Remember its not your fault and you have tried your 110% in the friendship. All you do is be you and hope that she learns to be better. Give her time to get better and learn from her mistakes.

It is possible to forgive. She may not know what she has done or is doing is wrong. You must let her know how you feel to possibly make things better. I’m sure after she knows how it makes you feel, she will try to make the situation better. You have to put yourself in her shoes and try to figure out why she did this. Talk to her and explain the problem and how it makes you feel. Then go from there. I’m sure she will listen and try to fix her mistakes. You never know unless you try.

I understand, we all do not like lie. Especially from special people in our life. But many times these best people in our life has their own problems, sometimes real, sometimes their mind made. It's better that we reach them for support and help them if they accept, or give them space to come out of their situations on their own. If we keep on keeping grudge against them, we will suffer more. So it's good to either forgive them or understand their problem. Every situation, be it good or bad, is temporary. May be over a period of time, again, they will be best people in our life. Even if the go out of our life forever, we will be in peace. The only thing that works for our longtime peach and happiness is, mindfulness with love and compassion to all, without hate, grudges, jealousy.
