Yeah, I've found this too classic. If you're always the one doing the calling and making the effort, try stopping and see what happens.

chances are the friendship will end and they'll blame you because 'you stopped calling'.

If you have compassion for others spare some for yourself. Some changes are only assumed to be painful. In the end it will all work out. It always does....

This could also be the difference between an introvert and an extrovert, not necessarily an indication of the strength of freindship.

I have lost friends by being the one who doesnt phone. I always blame myself not them for that.
