She doesn't really want to hang out with you, but she likes the attention and power she gets from playing you. I had a cousin who used to do this to me.
Don't ever make plans with her again.
My cousin would say to me in a tone suggesting he wants to hang out "My wife's going to her moms and I don't have anything to do this weekend ..." which would prompt me to ask "Wanna go Downtown or something Saturday night?" just so he could reply 'naaaah.' Got me a few times over the course of a year with that until I stopped biting.
Then (when we'd already have plans) he'd call me out of the blue when he and his wife were on their way out and invite us ... Weird. Just make a plan already. It's hard to be friends with people who play games.

I'm sorry to say this but she does not care about you.


What she "says" and what she "does" are two different things.


She is not your friend. She may have been at one time, but she is putting zero effort into this friendship. In all the time you have known her, has she always been flighty? Has she always blown you off or is this more recently? She is either too busy, caught up in her own world or does not give a dam* about you.


Whenever she says, "Oh yes. Let's get together." Say, "Okay" and then remain silent. Let her make the next step. Don't say "Oh GOOD, when?" She is just saying things for the sake of saying things. Meaning: She is one of those who makes promises to meet for lunch or events and then blows you off.


NOT a friend, sorry.

So, it's been two years since you've seen this person? <edit> Stop responding to the "We need to get together, I MISS you!" b.s. and be friends with people who actually reach out to you and enjoy being with you.

It's her fantasy life.

I'd give you advice except I never go on that site anyway. I hate poseurs. Be genuine or be gone.

Yes, it certainly is and a terrible waste of energy.

No, put her in the category of "we were never really friends and go no contact". Why continue with this nonsense?

I've been through this. Walk away. Clearly, she is not your "friend," so why keep subjecting yourself to this?

Send her a private message, saying, "I haven't seen you in years. You repeatedly turn down invitations, never invite me, and yet keep posting how much you "miss" me. Best of luck to you in the future.

Then unfriend her, and move on with your life.
