But, you know her better than any of us, so be sure to use your own judgment
I've thought about sending her a short letter, just basically saying that I miss her and things aren't the same without her friendship. I'm not sure what impact that would have on her. I don't think she's ever responded very much to the notes and letters I've wrote. Although I could be mistaken.

To be fair, I want to explain what I think was behind me asking if she wanted me to buy her lunch when I already knew she didn't have any money. We are both on disability. I have OCD and she has Bipolar Disorder & Paranoid Schizophrenia. I had my disability a long time before she got started on hers. As a result, whenever we would go out to lunch, see a movie, etc. I would pay for everything. I’m not sure what I’m about to say is going to make any sense, but there was a conflict going on within me. The majority of the time when we went out, it was my idea. I really enjoyed spending time with her. At the same time, I was being resentful that I was having to pay for everything. I did have this on my mind the last time we ate out. If this hadn’t been a problem for me, it’s likely I never would’ve said what I did.
