I have know Annie (fake name) for over 10 years I met her in my first nursing job, became quite close she had a daughter I had no children when I first met her. Fast forward 12 years still in touch I now have an 8 year old child, she a 12/ 8 year old. She lives about an hours drive from me. Every time I suggest to meet up with the kids it’s always near were she lives, every time I suggest to meet up my way get usual excuse no money/ no petrol in car/ not enough time. Last few times iv given in and gone to but recently due to a difficult home life with avSEM child in alternative provision and working 12 hour shifts I’m permanently exhausted and feel I have no energy to drive miles up the motorway anymore. Iv tried to ring her but she doesn’t answer. I’m friends with her on fb and see she’s been meeting up with other people locally to me ( large local retail park 10 minutes away from me) no invite for me and my son, when I asked to meet up got told she had no money. Am I right into give up on this ‘friendship’ as it’s all so one sided, seems to be me making all the effort
