I've already mentioned a few times about ending a very long friendship myself back several years ago and it seems many of us have had similar one-side relationships. I finally cut all ties with her after a HUGE betrayal on her part. This was about 6 years ago. I've since found out she lost her home to foreclosure for not paying her taxes for years, she lost her job (due to drug and alochol problems), her husband is in a nursing home as he has Huntington's and she apparently never visits him anymore and for whatever reason, he didn't move with her after they lost their home. I think it was his choice to go into a home. When I was with her, she was taking $200 a month out of his disability cheque to fund her cocaine habit and I guess it got found out so she is angry that he no longer allows her access to his account and his oldest daughter does all his books. Her daughter contacted me on FB telling me that her mom is now alone in a small town and is very lonely and asked me if I'd forgive her and extend an olive branch to her. I told her I was sorry her mom was in the predicament she is in now but I have absolutely no desire to reconnect with her. Especially after seeing someone post on her page that they saw her mother at the liquor store one morning getting "breakfast". I went through 2 sessions of rehab with her and stayed with her kids while she was in there and not once got a word of thanks. Not only that, I lent her $1500 one time and she promised to pay me back with her income tax return. I never saw a dime and forgave her that.

After awhile you just have to stop being a doormat to friends like that that don't seem to care. You will have times of missing your friend, but I promise you, a year from now, you will feel so happy that you did. It's very stressful trying to maintain a friendship with a selfish person
