Considering that Im a Yankee fan and have Red Sox friends id say yes I have frienemies.
If you no longer talk to her doesn't that make her an enemy if you are no longer friends.
No we just dont talk much it was no hate or break up of the frenemieship. I just dont engage her in any unnecessary dialogue.
Growing up in Western Massachusetts I also had a lot of frienemies (read traitors) who were Yankees fans.
I actually looked at this topic because I thought it was referring to this cool icon set my coworker downloaded the other day.
Jones and the frienemies
I had one in jr./sr. high school. Our lockers were only separated by one other, so there wasn't any avoiding him, even if I wanted to. We had a few minor fights, and he hit my car junior year, but I went to his Eagle Scout Court of Honor a few months into college. 
Haven't seen him or heard anything about him since then.
However, The New Radicals (now defunct) define Frenemies as: "who, when you're down ain't your friend."
Don't think I have any of those...

The Newsweek issue dated February 12, 2007 has an article called "Girls Gone Bad?" about the influence Paris, Britney, Lindsay, and Nicole have on pre-teen girls. That debate is a topic worthy for a separate thread. I'm mentioning the article here because I spotted the phrase "Nicole Richie and her frenemies" in the article.
So I guess the word "frenemy" is now mainstream enough for major news magazines.

I think MySpace needs an "add to my Frenemy list" button. That way, if they're too nice to me, I can get suspicious, and de-Frenemy their asses.
As a guy, I was always amazed by the way that teenage girls pretended to be nice to each other and then constantly stabbed each other in the back throughout junior high and high school. I would classify 90% or so of the teenage girls in my grade then as frienemies with each other.
My office is full of frienemies.
I'm a month late in concurring, but seriously. So sickly sweet to your face and so devastatingly toxic when you're not looking. The path of least resistance is strewn with frienemies!
Ha! I get Newsweek every week at work, and I have a student who comes into my classroom every day, picks up that issue, flips to whatever page and stares at Brittney Spears' breasts. I know this because he's asked me several times "Are those real? They're too big."
Adolescents ...
Yeah, school and workplaces are great places to meet frienemies. Sometimes you need to be friends because you have to work together, but really......you hate each other.
