I really don't know what I want to do.I feel guilty because she at least says she's broken off the friendship due to her illness .............that she can't cope with the "pressure" of it right now.Saying that,she does keep on with a relationship she's developed online.She says that "meets her needs" currently ,which sounds as though she's using that person and makes me wonder iif that's what she was doing with me too and now I'm just no longer "useful".Then again.............if she's ill............... I suppose the bottom line is that she's chosen to do this and she isn't asking me to get back in touch (then ,as I've said above-people have said she may feel unable to do that! ) .I wish I knew the answer.
