So I reconnected with an old school friend about 18 months ago. We have been meeting on average once a week for a coffee or evening drink.
She has been in a very unstable relationship with a guy on and off for 3 years.He lives out of the area and visits so isn't around often. She's had quite a hard adult life. I feel sorry for her and do like her, but I am becoming very drained from meeting up with her as we have the same old conversation about her partner, who no longer wants a relationship with her. She never listens to my advice and I find myself constantly repeating the same old spiel. She never takes any interest in me or things going on in my life. We talk the whole time about this bloke who couldn't give a dam about her. I have tried to move conversation on and introduce new topics but it always ends back at him.
Lately I have put off meeting up with her but then get bombarded with messages.
AIBU to drop her as a friend?
