Is it a one sided friendship?

My friend and I have been best friends for over 12 years and have always been there for each other through the good and the bad. Recently though it seems that I am always the one doing the helping and that she doesn't even txt me unless she wants something. She is with another new guy and seems to have forgotten that I am still around until she wants to complain about him or borrow more money from me or needs somewhere to stay or basically just wants something. I am a single mum and have gone without a few times now because I have lent her money that she never pays back, yet she cant even stop in to say hello and have a cup of coffee. I am feeling very used and really angry but am not sure if I have a right to be. I know she is in a new relationship but this new guy is just another jerk like most of her boyfriends are and I know that she will get sick of him soon and then expect me to pick up the pieces of her life for her again, like I do everytime. Am I the only friend in this friendship or am I imagining that it is one sided? Please I need your opinions, I am very confused about what is happening.

You and i are the same, we are the sought of people that take advantage of our kindness. Consider yourself as a candle when they are in the dark they will come to you. When they are alright and cheerful you are not on the list. In other words this person is not your friend just give her any excuse whenever she wants to see you cause if she does it is only because she wants something. after two or three excuses you will never hear from her again.

I thank you for your advise, you are more than likely right, I just wish that she was the same person that she used to be, the one who would have done the same for me but at least now I realise that it is not just me who thinks she is using me. Thankyou.
