friendships are two ways Chimi and just because she has a stressful job and you handle the stress of yours doesn't mean that you have to do favors for her all of the time. Trust yourself on this one.

I agree with the others. If she is stressing you out and not bringing anything to the friendship, then there is no reason to continue the friendship. If you're incompatible, then you're incompatible. It stinks that she's stuck like this, but it's not your responsibility to fill in the gaps for her (and I think she probably knows this).
