Uncertainties





Berlin, Germany
Warm Spring evening

Yesterday I finally confronted an old friend about the worth of our friendship to her.
For at least a year and a half I felt that I was the only one investing, calling, listening, helping out. I admit that she is not an easy person, but neither am I.

For the last couple of month I used her, being in difficult situations and me, being busy with work, moving and getting settled as an excuse for not bringing that topic up.

The difficulty is she either doesn't want to or is unable to grasp that I just basically told her that I won't be her friend anymore if her priorities don't change. Some of you might say that as a real friend I would except her the way she is. But I believe that as a friend I don't have to break myself for being her friend.

I gave her some time to think about it, but in reality I don't feel like I got through to her.

Any suggestions, thoughts or ideas are welcome.

Thank you,
Andrea
