Friendships that cracked can heal. Just not on your schedule.

Repair is possible more often than people assume, and it almost never happens on the schedule you would choose. The other person has their own timing, their own version of what happened, and their own readiness, none of which you control. Leaving the door open usually works better than knocking on it.

You can make yourself available without making it a project. One honest message, no pressure attached, then real distance while they think. Keep building other friendships in the meantime, because waiting as a full-time job is hard on you. Some of these come back in a year, and some do not.
