Honestly, the fact that you have looked through all her messages to see how many she didn't like or respond to???? Just wow.
The point of giving is not to be expecting something back. The fact that you want to unfriend this person, and basically stalked their facebook page and kept tabs on their actions..... honestly, that says a lot more about you than it does about them.
I don't really think it's sensible of you to burn bridges with someone based on your expectations of social media.

I can relate so much to OP because I've had similar issues that were so extreme that I had to close my personal Facebook account until I improve my mental state.
Maybe you're being a bit hard on OP?
I wouldn't consider it giving and expecting in return so much as feeling left out when people get more attention than you or something you want (in the case of likes and comments).
At least this was the case for me. I always wanted to be popular and liked on Facebook and I wanted a lot of friends because I was lonely and craved relations with people that I didn't have to work for and lets face it: making and keeping friends on Facebook is a high reward low work kind of thing and the best part about it is you can close them out of your life when you log out of Facebook thus not feeling forced to socialize when you need your alone time.
Of course, OP might be in a different situation entirely
