My friend acts all high and mighty but then acts like a wimp?

Postby naseem » Sun Jul 08, 2012 2:17 am

Now, both of us have been best friends since P5. We are both going into S1 in 5 weeks. Here is my story.

She is constantly hanging around me, asking me to come over to her house all the time. We've had around 5 sleepovers in the first week of the Summer Holidays and I keep having to miss my guitar practise sessions and Kettle bells training classes just to hang around with her. When I started to make new friends at a visit to the high school she kept trying to pull me away and telling me that she wanted me to go. I accidentally swore at her and told her that I was talking to people. She seemed annoyed. Recently, she's been asking me to come to sleepovers a lot more often and when I say "No" she calls me rubbish and says that I'm no fun. I'm worried that she'll keep doing this in High School. She won't order anything out a takeaway place unless I do it for her. I told her that she better learn to do things for herself or I'm not going to want to hang around with her anymore. She treats me like a slave sometimes. She gets jealous because I can play guitar and she can't. Once, I was playing guitar over at her house and the next day she dumped it and said that it was rubbish. She pretends to go hyper when she eats sherbet and drinks energy juice. I told her that it actually takes around 30 minutes for a caffeine product to take action on the body and she immediately stopped pretending to be hyper. She does all of this but yet, when she's faced with talking or interacting with someone else, she can't do it, she needs ME to do it because she's too scared.

Please, please, please help. I'm getting sick of being treated like a slave!

1) Talk to her and explain how you feel and tell her that if she doesn't stop acting like this then you can't be her friend anymore and explain why. Don't be nasty about it be nice and calm.

2)Stop doing things for her and if she gets annoyed about this just carry on like normal and ignore how she is acting.

This sort of behaviour is very childish and the best way to deal with it is to treat her like you would treat a small child.

U have the answer yourself. She is not being a friend but your master. Decide what you want and be sure to tell her the same?

Wow.
Check if she has any mental issues because normal people don't do that.
Or maybe she likes you more than a friend but just doesn't know how to express it.
Don't be afraid, just tell her that she's not treating you right.
