out of all my friends, i'm the one they go to when they are having a hard time with something or need someone to be there for them. I love doing this.....its one of the things I'm good at.One of my closest friends...we have been friends since sixth grade, and now we are in 10th...she is starting to irritate me...the only time she ever wants to talk is when she has problems....never asking how i'm doing or wanting to hear about my love stories too....my other friends come for help and stuff, but at least they ask how i'm doing and how everything is going you know....am i weird? I don't know..what do you guys think about this? a part of me wants to confront her about it....but you know....i want to make sure that its the right decision... (link)

I know exactly how you feel. Back several years ago, I was pretty much known as the "advice guy" in my group of friends. Over time, I'd meet new people, and they would also begin to see me as the advice person. Some of those people didn't really care about me, they just wanted attention.
I'd say that there are two possibilities to this:
(1) She's just looking for attention. Maybe her friends and family haven't been pulling through like they used to, and your friend just wants to have compliments galore. Anything to help boost her ego may be all she cares about. If you think this might be the case, you should definitely confront her about it. Just ask why all you ever talk about is advice-related stuff. If she gets offender, she's probably not too good of a friend after all.
(2) She's looking for something to talk about, and knows you're good with talking about advice. If this is the case, she's probably innocent.
