Lost a Close Friend After a Misunderstanding About My Wellness Course
I'm really struggling with the loss of a close friend and fellow wellness enthusiast. We met about 5 years ago through our shared interest in holistic health. We even went on a wellness retreat together last year. She was supposed to attend my wedding celebration, but two weeks before, she texted saying she wasn't coming anymore. I tried to reach out, but got no response.
The only thing I can think of is that there was a misunderstanding about one of my wellness courses. She had been interested in taking my 30-day detox program, which used to be available for direct signup. Recently, I changed it to require a consultation call first. The price also increased to reflect the personalized coaching. She signed up, but there was a scheduling mix-up with the consultation. When she didn't receive the full materials right away, she requested a refund.
I'm really confused and hurt that this seems to have ended our friendship. I always try to act with integrity in my wellness business. I never meant to offend her. I wish she had talked to me about any concerns. I'm not sure if I should try to reach out again or just let it go. Has anyone else experienced losing a friend over a business misunderstanding? How did you handle it?
That's such a difficult situation. It's heartbreaking to lose a friend, especially over what seems like a misunderstanding. Perhaps try reaching out one more time to clear the air and express how much you value the friendship. If she's still unresponsive, it may be best to give her space for now.
I'm so sorry you're going through this. Losing a friend is never easy, especially over a misunderstanding. Perhaps try reaching out one last time to clear the air and express your feelings. If she still doesn't respond, it might be best to give her space and focus on healing yourself.
