A woman at church & I have been friends for about 4 years.  When we don't connect at church for a couple of weeks I will send an email or message on Facebook.  I let her know I'm thinking of and praying for her.  She will respond and end most messages with "love you" or "hugs".  I will sometimes get requestes from her in regard to a situation that needs prayer.  But that's the only time I ever hear from her.  She has never initiated an email or FB message just to say "hi or I'm thinking about you". 

So, is this really a true friendship???  I realize the answer is NO.  And I've come to the conclusion that while I feel short-changed, I can't change her.  I haven't initiated any correspondence with her for almost 2 months and in that time she hasn't written me.  One-sided friendship is really no friendship at all.
