A few months ago, someone who I considered my best friend called and told me that she felt it would be best if we took some time apart and didnt' talk or see each other for awhile because we had been arguing a lot but the fact she did this made me mad, upset, and sad. its been three months and I am happy, busy with things I love, and have tons of new friends. She emailed me the other day and said she wants to know how I am and if we can start being friends again. I am so confused. should I give her a second chance? ignore her and not even respond? i don't know what to do. Is it even normal for this to happen between friends?
Do you think it's normal?

every friendship has its ups and down. I recommend giving it a second chance, if things work out you'l gain a friend, if not then you havent lost out on much if your not talking much anyway.

I don't think that's normal unless there was a specific reason for it. I agree with the person above that you should give her a second chance, but make it very clear to her how much she pissed you off the last time and that if she pulls something like that again you won't be so forgiving.

For some reason i have doubts. When you think about it, what is a friend that will call for a break every time things get rough? YOu guys should work things out not take a break to cool off until things are good again. Let me ask you think, do you feel happier when shes gone? Like less pressure and stress? If so dun't renew the relationship. However if you actually enjoy her company then give it a whirl. Just keep in mind that shes not a friend if she runs when things are heated.

Total zombie symptom. You should be more aware of these things and understanding. Zombies need friends but they are a little different. Try eating a brain with them?

i agree with buriedalive that this doesn't seem normal unless she had a reason for calling it quits. you really should ask her why she stopped being in touch with you, especially if u were real close.

I don't know. I have a cousin that did that to me. Totally dropped off the planet after constantly ditching me for a 2-3 month span. previous we were always cool. spent a lot of time with each other's families. I haven't heard from her, but if I did I would probably wanna see her. but that's family. if a friend did that to me(and they have) i don't think i need that in my life. its unnecessary drama. you know?
