It depends on whether I think that if they changed the behavior things would be good again and how egregious the behavior it is. With friends if I ever felt like a back-up friend and someone kept bailing on me I might not say anything and move on. If they circle back and ask me whats up I may tell them but I see no need to tell someone something they should know already isnt ok. People know when they are doing the wrong thing and being a crap friend. I shouldnt have to point it out to them. I had one friend tell me that it hurt her feelings when we would be texting back and forth for awhile and then I drop off for a week. I realized that it was my depression and that I wasn't being fair. So I make it a point of letting her know if I am having an episode even if its " I am feeling bad, its not you, talk to you soon". This way she knew it wasn't her and that I wasn't busy living it up with other people. But if its a matter of getting ditched by friends, they are not friends. I wouldn't worry about if I seemed clingy. To me, clingy is latching on to someone in an unhealthy manner- I do not see common courtesy as unhealthy.
