That was an experience that would turn most off friends. She has no idea what a true friend is, and doesn't sound like a great person who deserved your friendship. I understand giving up. I haven't had an in person friend in..well 20 years. I am a loner in every sense. If i care about you, get close to you, i am opening up and giving my trust. Which is rare. Even my online circie of friends is very small, but i trust and care about them .
I consider you one of them.

Give yourself a chance. You have a good reason to feel the way you do. I probably would've punched someone. And seriously I'm not violent at all.
Open up when you feel safe and only a little bit at a time. And try to set realistic boundaries for yourself and for those you are considering letting in. Dont just give up, just be hesitant, be guarded, be picky as to who you let into your life not because you've been hurt in the past but because you deserve to be treated good, especially by those who may call themselves your friends.
I hope this helps

@Notsimilarreally I'm not counting out a little convoy one day...
Thank you 🤗 I would happily accept your hug and do my best not to cry and be weird. The emptiness is overwhelming lol I think we'd get along because we accept each other. If we were neighbors we'd look out for each other.
Thank you 🖤

Sounds like she snapped after the cancer diagnosis and took it out on everyone else. No choice but to avoid.
A bandmate's wife lost her son in Afghanistan many years ago and she hasn't been the same since. After my dad passed in 2019, I visited them and she had zero reaction to the news of my father's death. I couldn't believe it. She then went and unfriended me on Facebook when I had literally done nothing to her.
My point is that people are fucked up. Chances are you met that friend at or past her breaking point. Now, NONE of that is your problem, but it might speak to the issues.
As sad as it is, some people are just too dangerous to engage.

@uncalled4 You are right. I did try to be loyal and understanding. A lot of her friends did, we all pitched in and she had her family too. My experience with cancer wasn't nearly as intensive, but I know the feeling of, omg I might die on my kids. It's a lot. I'm not the same after my parents died either.
It's crazy how these things affect us. I even lost a friend because of COVID, she was upset I didn't check in on her enough, even knowing what I was going through at the time.
People come and go I guess.
I really want someone to stay though.
