How to get my friend to act normal again?

Okay, so I have been friends with this girl for like, 4 years and SHE HAS CHANGED! seriously I want the old her back… now shes kind of acting stupid all the time and not acting normal and talking back and stuff, she also seemed to go bi, (likes girls and guys). and I just want her to be herself again. I dont really care about the bi part just how she has gotten like, weird and sad and stuff lately. shes still my friend but I moved a year ago and when I came to visit her she was so different and making all the wrong choices, she even talked about smoking, tattoos and crap like that. Especially her other friends, they are kind of awkward. is there any way to get my old friend back to normal? or anything to say to her? PLEASE HELP!!

Sometimes poeple choice different paths and change. You’ve probably also changed over the years. It sounds like your interests aren’t the same anymore and that you aren’t making the same choices. As a friend you should be honest about how you feel especially if you think she isn’t being good to herself. Yet you also have to respect that she might not choose the same path as you and this means learning to let her go. Start by talking about it and see where it leads. Like all relationships, friendships need to be tended and nourished so they continue to grow strong.
