My question is about relationships. I’m crushed that one of my oldest and best friends defriended me on FB. I think I know why. If I’m sick of seeing her Trump ads, she must be equally annoyed by my pro Hillary posts. We never discuss politics when we’re together hanging out after classes, but I’m hurt that she’s unfriended me. How do I get my friend back?

Wait a week or two after the election results have come in before trying to friend her on FB. By then she may welcome seeing posts of the friends she defriended. Once the election is over, try not to gloat over your win on social media so that all of your relationships will be less likely to carry a grudge.
