Is it normal to be tired of your best friend?

So, 2 years ago me and my friend Katie lost our best friend Amber. It was only a matter of time that I come to my senses and hang out with her to ease the pain. But lately I've been noticing that we hang out a little too much. Like, whenever we wouldnt hang out for a day or two, she says she misses me, and when we have lunch, a day later, she says we havent had lunch in forever. REALLY THOUGH?? I would feel horrible if i ever told her how i feel right now, because quite frankly, shes getting WAY too clingy. I told her we should spend some time apart for my personal space, she obliged and after two days I knew she'd cave in and talk to me. It's fucking annoying but i dont want to offend her. sometimes i worry if I'm her only reliable resource, because i know i might not be there one day, and i just want to feel reassured that she has some other people and not just me. sorry this was hella long!

    It seems you are being selfish not telling her. After only two days apart she calls you and you get annoyed by that? How long do you want to have time away from her? Tell her.

    Hang out with a group so she can make more friends and so she knows you are not her only friend. good luck!

    ah. yeah i've been in this situation and it's not pretty. try to introduce her to other people to hang out with. your other friends maybe. it is annoying i am certainly a person who values some space to myself but also time with others. she is just worried about being left alone which is completely understandable but you need to reassure her that she will be fine even if you are not around. get her to do other things that will boost her confidence and give hr other people to be with. the play maybe? a hobby?

    Just tell her you are buisy! If she is really your best friend then she will understand that you have a life and things that you need to do. My best friend and I are lucky if we get to see eachother more than twice a month! She will get over it.
