You're thinking about this as if it was a business decision -- should you switch "investments" between friends (in time, this case) for the best long-term yield? But as Shakran implies, this is not the basis on which real friendships are formed.
Put it to you this way: if you did stop seeing your friend and he asked you why, imagine yourself saying,
"Well, you aren't going to be around next year and I need to build my relationships with friends who can support me in the long-term. You can't do that, so I can't afford to see you anymore. I've got to think about my future."
What would he think of you for saying that?
