Would you accept this as no big deal or realize it is a deal
We have been friends for 10 years, she has seemed distant for awhile. I told her I would call at a certain time on Sat not to disturb her schedule or husband. She did not pick up and did not call back? I called back and left an upset message and still no call back

Don't you wish people would just be straight forward with you? I had a friend whom I thought was close. We played board games pretty much every weekend and visited in between either on the phone or in person. Then suddenly she says she doesn't like to play games anymore and she never has time to talk or get together. Then a LONG time later I run into a mutual friend and she talks about this other friend regularly getting together with a different group to play games. Why couldn't my friend just have talked to me about whatever it was that I had done to offend her? Friendships should not end without a mutual effort to work things out.
Sorry, I got so carried away on my own story, but yes, it is a big deal when friendships end by one of the two people simply shutting down communication. I hope your friend will let you know what's going on.Like (1)

If she has been distant for awhile it's possible something is going on that she feels she needs to deal with alone. She may not have the emotional reserves to be there for you right now. Before you get angry, consider her situation. I don't know the situation. Is her marriage good? Are there kids? Were the two of you ever romantically involved? Ask her if she's OK. Friendship sometimes means giving someone the space they need without judgment.
