The material presented
here is not Al-Anon Conference Approved Literature. It is a method
to exchange
information, ideas, feelings, problems and solutions on a personal
level.
I had a somewhat similar situation Marty. It was with someone that I cared about. So I told her in a very nice way how "I felt" I did it in person rather than email because sometimes things can get misinterpreted via email. Anyway, she has changed because of the way she knew how I "felt" Had she not changed, I would have changed my ways and would have discontinued.
I hope this helps (sounds a lil crypted).
yours in recovery, Maria123

Your post reminded me of a situation that I had with a friend of mine.
I met someone online and over the years he and I have emailed back and forth. I got to the point were I just didn't want to talk to him, so I stopped responding to his emails.
He wanted more than a friendship and in the end friendship wasn't enough for him. So I cut off the emails.
Maybe your friend, just doesn't want to talk. Maybe they are really busy. Maybe they don't always check their emails.
Only your friend knows what is going on really.
If I had a friend who ignored my emails, then I would stop emailing them, and email someone who wants to talk to me, or who has the time for me.
Yours in recovery,
Mandy
