I hate this feeling.

When I was afraid my friend was doing that I started sneaking in a reference or two to something we both liked, like MST3k. Then I would ask if they noticed the reference. And then they actually had to own up to not reading it.

Which is fine, really, it was just the lying that was really getting to me. WELL. Okay, I'm not gonna lie, it hurt my feelings that she didn't want to read my stuff anymore, but I really hated being ~placated.~

Writing friendships are so hard. :(

This. (not the OP, btw) I had a similar experience. This friend kept praising me for my fic just minutes after I upload another (long) chapter. After a while I got suspicious, and to make matters worse she was constantly harassing me about when the characters were going to sleep together...although I had no plans for that in the story. I once asked her about her thoughts on a major event that took place for most of a chapter, and she replied that she wasn't even aware that the event took place. Although the title even was a dead giveaway for the event (and this was after she told me that she read the chapter.) She eventually owned up that she just "skimmed" the chapter for any smut. And this was someone who claimed to be the fic's "biggest fan."

I know that she did read the first few chapters, but when she got into the "Nice, when will they shag?" stage, I was hurt. I know I shouldn't have been but come on: I am busting my ass trying to write a really good fic and all you want was a "insert slot A into slot B" scene that you can find in countless other fics. :\

also not op

your "friend" sounds like a dick, anon. really hoping you're not wasting more time on someone that dishonest.

Yeahh :/ I don't get caught up in any expectation that my friends will read my stuff, it just makes it really awkward when people are actually dishonest about it.
