RPing as an obligation is no fun, and if your friend has gone off whatever it was you used to RP together and is no longer inspired by it then it's time to put it to rest. With any hobby losing interest is a risk, but RPing is so fuelled by what's currently sparking your imagination that forcing it defeats the point.

I don't know your situation, but my unsolicited advice is this: If you and your friend have a friendship outside of RPing, then see if you can find another mutual interest - a new fandom, a different RP setting, or a non-fannish topic you can bond over. If RPing was your main friendship thing though and there isn't anything else, then maybe it's time to cut ties and move on to finding other people to RP with you.

Yeah, I was coming here to say exactly this. There's an unfortunate trend in RP circles that the person/people you RP with at that time are suddenly your very best friends for the rest of your life (which I understand can feel like that when it's just starting out--I equate it to the "honeymoon" phase of a romantic relationship), but new fandoms happen, and if there's little other basis for the friendship than the RP, well...I feel like this is where most of the personal grudgewank crops up.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that it's perfectly okay to just have acquaintances that you enjoy the company of and RP with, and if a genuine friendship does come up out of that (meaning having plenty more in common than the RP/fandom), great--but it's not necessary.
