Ok I have an older friend that is 10 years older than me. She was my math college teacher and we became friends. We only talk through email b/c we are not that close yet but anyway..she just had a baby a month and a half ago and she has invited me over to see her already. Well I got her baby a present out of generosity.. (I have already gotten her a baby shower present which was an engravable picture frame that was expensive!)..but I was shopping and saw some cute outfits so I decided to get them just because. I have been trying to give them to her and I ask her in email when I can come by and give them to her but she either doesnt answer me sometimes or like today, told me to come over in email, but then called me later and said her AC wasbroken and being fixed, and to reschedule for next week. This will be the 3rd reschedule already. I told her it was time sensitive, which it is. I really think she is a great person and I understand she is busy with teaching and the baby, but she

acts like she doesn't want to be the kind of friend that I want to be with her. Sometimes I feel like she doesn't deserve my friendship..i am not being selfish either. I just dont know if she is making excuses or what... I cant really tell over the phone or in an email. And it is hurting my feelings. I need some good advice please! SHOULD I GIVE HER ONE MORE TIME AND IF SHE DOESN'T INVITE ME OVER LIEK SHE SAID SHE WOULD... SHOULD I JUST FORGET ABOUT HER? Kinda like 3 strikes and your OUT?

new baby ... hormone changes deluxe ....... !. .... a great great deal has changed with her.......her life is turned upside down from what you knew of her...... don't think so much of yourself ......... a friend has unconditional love.

You need to back off. Let her get in contact with you...when she has time. Clearly you have no children and have no clue how much time and energy it takes....leaving little time for her husband, her friends, and now you...an obviously needy friend.
She didn't ask for your gifts, and if you don't get them to her, I'm sure you will have other friends who have babies in the future to give them to. There is nothing worse than someone who is demanding as a friend...and I'm sorry, but thats exactly how you sound!
