problem of translation, help me =)

well i have a problem with that word ["fren"] maybe it is simple, but a girl told me : "don't treat me as your fren" today in a mail, and i don't find this word in a dictionary. Does it mean something like "Patient" or something? Thanx!

thanx dude, but i doesn't mean that, in the context i am sure it means other thing, maybe something like "sick" or something, she has some psychological problems and i tried to help her, she was very agressive and weird, but eventually thanked me for having tried to help her; and she wanna keep contact with me, but told "...but please don't treat me as ur fren" ? have you any idea, i guess it means something like "patient" (she's from canada).

Boomer just makes the mistake that she knows what she's talking about. Sounds like ebonics to me. Like, fren don't make me shank ya!
