A- My 'friend'
B- My 'friends' best friend
I have a friend who just recently starting ignoring me. I didn't know her very long. It was about a month I knew her, but I saw her every day. She is twelve and she's in my martial arts class and she goes to my school, too. It wasn't long before I considered her a friend, because I thought things were going to change for me. I thought for once I could finally have a real friend to talk to. Well it didn't happen.
(This is at the car wash yesterday) I saw A with her friend, B, yesterday! A didn't really say much to me because she was with her friend. I was standing up there holding a sign, and A walks up to me to say hi. I talk to her for nearly ten minutes until A leaves again. Later, I saw A and B up there together.
What surprised me was that B (when A wasn't around) had told me that she did not even want to come to the car wash but she just came only to keep A company and to talk to her so she didn't get bored. She said that she was sick of holding the sign for A and that she's not a slave. She had told me that A is useless and all she does is sit around while B does all of the work.
One sentence that B told me got me thinking... B said "We are supposed to be best friends" (meaning A and B)
Today, I saw A at karate, and I tried waving and saying hi to her but she didn't respond. I saw her again a minute later, and I said hi again but she still didn't respond back. I'm not sure if she is ignoring me or if she didn't hear me. She seemed to have looked at me when I walked in and looked down at the floor.
Is she mad at me for some reason? Is there a reason she would be doing this? I want to still be friends with her but I'm not sure what to do. I have a feeling I will see her on Wednesday.
Please help. I can't stop thinking about it.

The part at the car wash with B, I'm confused about. I think maybe B was jealous of you for hanging out with A.
As for at your class, I think A probably didn't hear you, had something else on her mind, or was even just moody(Pmsing or something like that). Possibly she heard what B said about her (A) and was embarrased(spelling..) or felt guilty.
She's only ignored you for one day so I think it's way too soon to tell if something's going on, just wait for a little while and see what happens.

Okay, the reason on why she seems to be ignoring you seems to be out of your reach, have you thought asking individual B whats up with her? Or if she was talking badly about you to her? Remember there is a chance that nothing happened and that A was just having a bad day and thats why she decided to ignore you, if you see her again talk to her, if she ignores you again then tell us.

B could have been talking badly about me to A. I saw A today at school and but neither of us said anything and to be fair, I don't even think she saw me as I was on the bus and she was outside.
I'll try to talk to her when I see her tomorrow!

Do keep us updated on what happens tomorrow.

A kind of sounds maybe a user the way B described her. Like she'll be your friend if she gets something out of it from you. It just reminds me of someone I know. If you're his butler, you're his buddy. And if you don't something he wants, he gives the cold shoulder. It's like he tests people to see what he can get out of them and if you fail something simple like not handing him something or whatever, the he goes on to the next person.

I saw her today, and I attempted to say hi to her once more. This time, (after I said hi) she stopped and looked my way, then she started making weird face expressions with her eyes and eyebrows. It was really weird but she didn't completely ignore me. And then she just walks away.
It left me confused... :(
My other friend who is my age said that she did that because A was thinking "Why the f*** you talking to me? Can't you take a hint?"
I don't really think that is the reason, but what do you think?

Wow, that is pretty weird! Could it be possible she likes you maybe, and is now embarrassed around you? Heard a rumor?

My MA instructor told someone (C) that I liked him. C came in and said 'for the last time, I do not like you!'
Then A ran in and screamed "He likes you! He likes you!" and C told her to shut up. I don't really know what that situation meant at all but I thought I'd mention it. Thanks for the advice!

I think it is possible- I've noticed that people that have crushes on someone, will tell them that someone else has a crush on them. Does that make sense? I hope so.. :p However, I wonder why the ignoring would start now, if the above event happened a while ago. This is going to be weird to say, but I wonder if maybe she had some 'personal time' while thinking of you and is now embarrassed about it even though you don't know. That could be a reason she started ignoring you now if she already liked you.

Is she visibly angry at you? Or just ignoring you and acting strangely?

I think after B had the conversation with you at the car wash, she (B) just thought: "I can't stand this! I need to talk to A and tell her we're supposed to be best friends and that I'm not her slave!". So B approaches A and tells her this, and A might thought that you tried to "poison" B so that she (B) started to argue with her (A). She might thought you influenced her in some way in order to break their friendship.
You need to have a serious conversation with A. Tell her that you didn't mean to interfere with her friendship with B, and that you think there's always the possibility to you three be friends as before.

You're probably right. I'll see A again tomorrow. We don't have school tomorrow, but I'll see her at my MA lessons. I'll ask her what her problem is tomorrow.

She said she is sorry and wants to be friends again, for some reason. Should I trust her? :P

Girls are weird. I don't understand. :confused: I guess if it were me, I'd try being friends again, but ask her why she acted that way so you know not to bother her in the same way.
