Things to know
- English is not my mother tongue, in the passage below there will probably be some mistakes, I apologise for that.
- I'm a 19 years old girl.
- The friend I'm talking about has been my Best (and only) Friend for the last twelve years.

Brief explanation of the overall situation:
We're both university students (biomedical engineering I, Chinese literature and history her). To attend that faculty she had to move, we now live 3 hours (by train) apart. I thought things were still going well for us despite the distance (we saw each other and had lunch together every 2 weeks, chat via skype, text..) but ..

What happened today:
I hadn't heard from her (except for a few random texts) in nearly one month. Today she called me saying she was in town and asking if we could have lunch together. It was around 3:30 pm, I had already had lunch but I said yes anyway, to meet her. We go to the usual restaurant, after a few minutes an ex-classmate with whom she is still friends arrives and sits at our table, across from me. I didn't show surprise (even if her arrival was to me unexpected) because it was obvious from their words that they had an appointment (my friend didn't tell me anything about this). I thought their exchange would be brief and that she would leave after a short while. I was wrong. She stayed (without ordering or eating anything) for the rest of the lunch. They casually started talking about their sex-life in front of me without even acknowledging the fact I was there, without looking at me, without talking to me. They chatted with ease, as if was absolutely normal ignoring me like that.
After lunch they went together somewhere else just saying "bye".

I need an advice, an opinion, a comment about this please. Even if maybe it doesn't sound from what I wrote I'm really really sad and angry and depressed about this, and I don't understand her behaviour : (

I am sorry. Sounds like it sucks. I think you ought to talk to her about it. Tell her that it hurts your feelings for her to be that way. And you are really uncomfortable with that. And you know, you can always make new friends! never underestimate yourself.
