Friendship breakups totally blow. But depending on the circumstance, you may want to try rectifying it. Psychologist, friendship expert, and author Irene S. Levine, Ph.D. explains, “If you think that the friendship ended because of a misunderstanding or disappointment that can be cleared up, why not give it a try? Best friends have a long-shared history that can’t be easily replaced. They usually had an ease of communication that allowed them to click in the first place.”
But where do you start?! “Bustle’s” got you covered with these texts you can send that’ll help break the ice.
