I have a friend who is quite shallow, she has her own issues and as such can be quite cold and distant. We've been friends since we were children and I've noticed that I am quite drawn to people that are cold and cannot give me love.

She has recently found new friends and rarely contacts me anymore and it kills me as she's pretty much my only friend at the moment. Her coldness hurts me and it makes me desperate for her to appreciate me and want to invite me out with her new friends, but she doesn't. I hate feeling so desperate and I want to value myself enough to move on but I'm so lonely I'm afraid to let go.

What can I do?
