Thanks for your input guys, it's much appreciated!
I'm giving her some space now, but I have let her know that I could *potentially* help her out. I assumed she wanted help by reaching out to me, but like most of you said, if she actually wanted help, she'd make more of an effort to be available.
To your point Harboursmoke, I understand people will take advantage of kindness, they've done so in the past with me, and I'm sure people will continue to lol. But that's all cancelled out by the people who do need the help and are grateful for it. I can be too trusting though, so I've learned to get other people's opinions on sob stories, hence the reason I posted here.
Thanks again everyone!
