Other person is the bad player. One poke a week is not a lot, and they are blatantly ignoring her to play with this other person, especially if they are smutting with someone else when they claim they are not "in the mood" for it.
Your friend should just drop this player and find another one.
The suck is theirs. If it would make her feel better, have her drop the other person a private message saying that they obviously aren't going to finish, and that she is now going to consider it faded or dropped or whatever. She should move on and just politely decline if the player suddenly decides they want to pick it up again.
Hahah, friend doesn't want to be direct about it, she's too nice. (To a fault? Yes.)
If the other player replies [to the RP posts] again later, she'll ignore it, but she's unsure of what she should do if the other player messages her to ask if she wants to continue.
She's admittedly somewhat of a doormat (and like I said, too nice), and she doesn't want to seem jealous/butthurt because "OMFG HDU PLAY WITH THAT OTHER PERSON AND NOT ME"
Other person is the BRPer. One poke a week is not a lot, and blatantly ignoring someone is not cool. Your friend expressed her understanding and offered options, and the person didn't even deign to give her a reply.
The other player sounds like a self-absorbed jerkface. It sounds like your friend has done everything a good RPer should do in this circumstance and then some. And yes, it is understandable to be jealous of the other player. Seeing someone blatantly ignore you in order to lavish attention on you will inspire jealousy, it's very human. However, I don't think the jerkface is worth feeling jealous over.
I pretty much agree with what others have said before me, which is kind of embarrassing since I don't seem to have anything to add of my own this time. :)
Not your fault. (And I'd be jealous too. Have been. Probably will be again, when next similarly happens again...)

This is pretty much what I told her when I gave my opinion, but she wanted other opinions as well, since friends can be biased and all.
