My most recent friendship was one that I had to give up. She honestly did not seem to get it when I would request down time after hanging out with her, and thought it was perfectly acceptable after hanging on the phone for an hour to suggest coming over! Or vice versa. When I met my future husband, she became downright annoying, whining about how I didn't seem to have time for her anymore because I was dating. I finally got tired of the high maintenance act and ended the friendship. I felt badly but she really gave me no other choice. If she would have been patient, I would have eventually sought her out again, but she made herself unbearable.
