My experience is that some people don't give much, and some people don't give much at certain times in their lives when they are preoccupied with other stuff. Confronting them doesn't help - just my experience.
If you like her company for other reasons, fine. Just be honest with yourself that she isn't giving much: have a chat with yourself inside about where you want to set your boundaries and act on that  .

Thank you saidso. I think you hit the nail on the head. I think I've been feeling like the friendship is "out of whack" for a while now, and this sort of solidified that for me. I need to have a long talk with myself about what to expect from this friend/friendship and how much to continue contributing. I don't necessarily want to stop being friends but I think perhaps reordering priorities may be what is needed. Thank you for your response. Kit
