Yes, I was on the receiving end. Friends for 25 years and she just never returned my calls or her texts were short and slowly over time, I gave up. The main thing is, I had told her I have DID and then slowly the relationship went South. That was how perceived it. About a year ago, she texted me out of the blue, and we met for coffee. She had a horrible year with the passing of her Dad, job loss, and such other things. I still don't think I could go back to how things were ever, it really hurt. At the time I wrote her an email explaining how I felt and she responded, but I was so angry and hurt that I didn't really care. So we may text now about twice a year if that. I miss her at times, but also feel it's for the best she isn't around. When we meet for coffee that day, I decided to be very reserved. I put up a wall. Glad the wall was up because she said she lost touch with a lot of people and negativity in her life. I took that as I was one of those people that was a negative part of her life?!?! From the time I was 14 to about late 30s we were friends and this was how it ended. I don't trust anyone anymore.
