Good advice LynnP,
I would have to agree with Lynn's advice. We can never make someone like us, we have to consider that it is not always our fault. We can only do our best and I really think Lynn has a very good suggestion about that email.
Try not to think on a day to day counting method of her not responding.
Just know that you have done your best and maybe you need to get to know other people, not to replace her but to widen you scope about others.
If it is a situation of dominent and passive, it can hard because the passive has a tendency to use the dominent to gain permission to explore or meet others.
Sometimes friendships need breaks so that there can be growth. Often when they return to a friendship they have something more to bring to it, even a realization. Don't view it as a bad thing, something that means the end. Instead, reach out a little and explore on your own, it is ok to grow, you can do it.
