Frustration. Puke-Post

Today I have a rather sad story to share. I think I've spent the last few years in a toxic, one-sided “friendship”. Feel free to share your opinion on this. Here's what happened:
I was supposed to go to Düsseldorf with my best friend on Friday. She was going to pick me up at 7 a.m., so she even took a day off from work. But overnight, I got really sick, had stomach cramps, and couldn’t move. My husband then texted her around 2 a.m. to say we couldn’t go because it would be too risky for me to travel abroad if something happened. I suggested he tell her we could do something here in Luxembourg instead, so that I would be closer to home if things got worse. (Düsseldorf is nearly 4 hours away.)
The next morning, she wrote to me: “Should we go, or are you not feeling well?” I replied: “No, we’d better stay here; it’s not really possible for me to travel.” No reaction. Three hours later, I let her know we’d have to postpone it because I was going to the doctor (diagnosis: gallstones).
I also wrote that I was really sorry and felt guilty since she had taken a vacation day for this. She didn’t even read my messages. Later that day, I saw a Snapchat story where she tagged her husband with the caption: “Thanks for always saving my shitty days.”
Here’s some background: she’s been complaining to me for years about her husband, calling him narcissistic, selfish, and saying he constantly cheats on her. (By the way, he’s also my ex-boyfriend.)
Since then, she hasn’t responded to me directly, but she’s been posting provocative things on Snapchat, Instagram, and TikTok that are clearly meant to get under my skin.
This made me reflect on our whole friendship: we have nothing in common. She’s into Formula 1, darts, and soccer, while I’m more into anime and series. Plus, she does so much with other friends, but she’s never invited me to do anything. Everything always comes from my side.
Now, I’m not really sure how to handle this. Should I just let the friendship fizzle out? Block her? Or should I address the situation directly?
I really don’t think I’m at fault. I mean, I was genuinely ill, and the doctor confirmed it with a diagnosis.
She was like this in school too. Whenever I did something she didn’t like, she’d “punish” me by gossiping about me to others and ignoring me. I’ve asked a lot of people for their opinion, simply because I’ve known this girl for 16 years. But I just don’t know what to do now.
Maybe someone has some advice.
Enough puked. Sorry for that.

I wish you a nice start into the fall, this time I'm just checking in so you can see that I'm still alive :)
I actually found the texture I was looking for last time. I am happy to share it with you. Just this way. I actually found my old laptop at my grandma's a few days ago. It's 15 years old and I even knew the password haha I almost cried when I saw that there were so many old resources still on the laptop and it's so much fun to use them.
I don't have an update yet, but check the update box often :)
