How can I get my friend back?

Question

Ok, long story short me and my (ex) best friend lost contact around 2011... Partly bc my mom didn't like her and partly because we were taking different paths in life and obviously just grew apart. Well now it's 2015, I recently found her on Facebook and found out she's dating a guy in college (like his sophomore year) and she's 15. Her parents approve because he came out to see her as we live in Arizona and he lives in Idaho... I'm really worried he'll take advantage of her or hurt her. She doesn't like me very much as about a year ago I saw her, waved, and she just ran off as if she didn't know me. She was kind of a dick to me in the past, but I'm willing to overlook that bc I genuinely want her to be okay. And before anyone suggests I send a message to her through facebook, I already did and it says she saw it and that she was active but she hasn't replied. Help??

I'm honestly not sure if you can get your friend back, per se.

But I think the best thing you could do is just express that you care for her, and you're okay that she doesn't really want to acknowledge you. Even though you guys have lost that friendly and sisterly kind of connection, if you care about her, I think it's important to acknowledge that.

Be patient, it's okay and kind of normal for her to not answer your Facebook messages. Still express your thoughts and worries on her relationship, even if she doesn't answer.

If all else fails, move on. She'll realize you care for her, but don't linger on this for too long. It sounds like you care about her, even if she doesn't quite exactly care about you. Good luck.

The only thing left for you to do is move on. You wrote the letter she saw it didn't reply. It's over even if you don't want it to be.
