My mother missed my birthday one year and never tried to make up for it. This was during the beginning of her becoming both neglectful and abusive.
I was, technically, too young to care about the why... but I did care. I wanted to know if she was okay, why she didn't even say "Hi,"
or if she just didn't love me anymore.
(I guarantee that if she would have said "hi," I would have been grateful and considered that my birthday gift.)
I'm usually invisible to her. Unless she wants to pick on me for something I did "wrong."
You may be emotionally detaching because you have learned that caring usually leads to hurt and isn't really worth it.
I suggest you talk to the people who caused you to act this way about it. (Your friends, his girlfriend, your parents/sister)
If this doesn't fix anything then you need to detach because that's all they can cause you. Pain.
My mother refuses to see me/care about me, so I'm letting go.
(Yes, it hurts no matter what, but you should try to better yourself. There's nothing selfish about that. Infact, it's normal and healthy)
I will hate you... no matter how good of friends we used to be.

You sound neglected.
