Have you ever lost a friend when you told them you were abused by a family member?
Let me tell you something I experienced with some of the friends and people I'm around. I've also had family problems, even before my dad ped away and my stepfather pretty much made my childhood a difficult experience. Anyway, I go to a private school with a bunch of well-provided-for kids and I am on financial aid and i get an increased discount as long as I keep my grades above average (91). Being around these people and making friends with them, I noticed they come to me to talk about their problems as if i was like nurturing mother, and i don't mind because i've learned to understand their problems and give advice based on my experiences and try to see things from their point of view. Let me tell you it's pretty hard, because after facing so much difficulties and have someone come to u crying as if their whole life is fked but in the end it's just something that was pretty much their own fault and they brought it upon themselves. It's hard to sympathize when i hear how they complain about their parents not letting them do something when some people have abusive parents that don't love them or abandoned them. I've learned that some people are actually just selfish, they look for a friend who they think has no problems and can understand them and talk about their problems with the friend. You should feel good that you are a great friend btw. But in the end once u open ur mouth about a hard experience u had, they automatically switch perspectives and seem all surprised, that's not a true friend that can understand and be there for u. You could try making up with her, but if she just continues to ignore, just forget about her. Hope for you the best of luck. ;)
