    There is no such thing as a "friend" who only calls when they need something.

    I have many friends like that...I'm only noticeable, visible and valuable when they want something from me or ask me questions. I don't mind helping them. I want to be close to them and love them but I just can't take this anymore. I even fell in love with one of them and we were so close then. I missed her. But now, she is so distant that we seldom spend time with one another. But I am called by my name when they need me only. When I show them what I feel they get angry and judge me. This is just getting off my nerves.

    The ones who do that, aren't really your true friends.

    I don't consider those people "friends" and I really don't have anyone who only calls me when they need something anyway. I have this thing where I only give my # to people who I trust won't abuse the privilege of having it.

    In my experience people who do that aren't called friends, they're called sons.

    yes, I do. You might want to confront them if you want any closure. If the clam up and give you a stupid answer then they really don't care about the relationship the two of you have, but if they look genuinely upset by your question and are offended then they probably didn't mean to make you feel like they were using you. I'm in a similiar situation, however I know the person is shallow because they only seem to make time for me if I'm giving them money or something else materialistic, and when they come visit me to get them I make up some excuse as to why they can't get something I promised to them...the look on their face is classic when I see how they wasted gas and time to pretend to be my friend to get something....but going back to a positive note, confront your friend, and tell them how you feel...if they are a true friend it will stop it they aren't your going to get a vacant answer as to why they are so fake.

    Family can be like that also; I still help them but I take my time because users are not a priority in my life.

    A friendship should be a give and take relationship not a take,take, and no favors in return.
