What made you change your mind about a long term friend?

Yay. Technology. Feels weird writing it online before sending the mail.

My two best friends are taker, they crave lot of energy and dedication, but don't give anything back. Wait, they might be giver to other people, but with me they always were takers. Their levels are always being off the scale, but I never noticed it because I was single and they were constantly with somebody. Usually being dumped and usually come and cry to me, find someone in matter of days and disappear again.

One of them got a real job after years, with the job came a car, and she finally lived "indipendently" from guys, as my car wasn't much of a need anymore, she soon shifted friendships and forgot about me when I tried to "crave back" whatever attention or lift I gave her. We're still in "ok" terms, but I don't go out of my way to her place or seek contact, if she doesn't do so. Often she just randomly remembers me for whatever reason and I just skip the random fb comment.

The other one is worse, as I felt manipulated to believe she was accounting for me and my family. I trusted her more, she mas my maid of honor.

She is a liar, trying her means to whatever purpose. She used me, stole from my family and took advantage of a difficault situation.

It felt even worse and awful when she started to turn it back on me, I felt betrayed in sooooo many levels. I cut an almost 30yrs friendship out, too tired to explain at first, but now I gathered the courage and I'm going to tell her.

She now stalks me, sending me weird stuff on fb, asking publicly my address, it gets worse by the day because I refused to explain and she seemed to had forgotten all the things she's done to us.
