okay i have this friend, lets call her.. jenny. i've known jenny all this schoolyear and we've been okay friends i guess. but we get into quarrels kinda often. we're in the same club, its kinda like a broadway club and our play is this week so we see each other kinda often outside like school classes. anyways like she misses alot of practices.. like she missed one this saturday which was our dress rehearsal for a flippin birthday party for her little sister. im suprised they didnt kick her out of the club.. well whatever. like sometimes she'd come like about 30 mins late because she was getting a dinner with her mom. amyways like today she got mad at me because i said i was buying tickets for the show today for the rest of my family. and then she said the tickets were due on the 10th which was like last saturday which i knew totally was false. anyways she acted like she was right.. its hard to prove something is right when it is. so i showed her the paper later and she said she thought i was talking about something else. yeah right. i didnt point this out though cause it was during class and i didnt wanna make a big scene or whatever. and we played battleship too and i won even though all her ships were twisted into weird angles and stuff.. like not diagonal, but like 2 would go one way and 1 would go like up or down. all mine werent like that except for one. anyways she almost won then it turned around because i had a strategy.. and apparently she didnt see that i'd sunk a ship! ugh she was just about to win when i pointed this out to her.. like i called out the numbers in a checkerboard pattern and if she didnt do anything diagonally, it wouldnt make sense.. i cant really explain though about that, use your imagination. ughhhh. and then later like today like before i borrowed a dollar from her to get a snack in the club we're in, because i didnt have money. i think that was like last week so i forgot and today she suddenly brought it up when i borrowed another dollar from a friend so i could get a snack. i mean what the heck? she said it was rude for me not to give it to her and said somethign along the lines that i couldnt buy anything without paying her back. i said i was hungry and i'd pay her back and she got all mad at me. ugh some girls. but she didnt have a dollar either for a snack and was all like "you dont really need one"? and im like "but i want it and thats my business". if i gave the dollar to her she woulda gotten a snack too, which doesnt make sense. how should i handle the situation tomorrow?
1. act like nothing happened to piss her off and just give her the dollar, nothin to it
2. be pissed about it?
usually after it seems like its a mini fight i dunno how to act.. i mean i dont forget things easily so then its still kinda in my mind ya know? and alot of times she says im being too competitive with her. like once i sold lollipops at school for that broadway show.. so it could raise money. and then the next day she went telling everyone i was a scam because its worth 75 cents and i sold them for a dollar unless they wanted to buy it for 75 cents, or 3 quaters (since i didnt have a quater to give back to the kids paying a dollar). or something along the lines of that.. she sold hers.. i was okay but it was like she was trying to get a bigger business. 25 cents didnt kill anybody. its called a "profit" since selling those lollipops are kinda hard.. because like tons of kids mall you in the hallway and buy like from 5-10 of them, which can make you late for your next class often. the fundraiser stopped tho.. and i never sold my 'pops on the same day she did.. but that still pissed me off that like she was trying to make a bigger business. its for the same freakin cause. and like she made me feel super guilty for getting that 25 cents extra.. but most people i even said it was 75 cents and they didnt want a quarter back!!!! i swear i dont forget things like that.. im not that type of girl.. i dunno if i'll be her best friend. most of my friends i hardly get into fights with.. some i've known since like first grade and we've only been in like what? 1 or no fights? thats how friendships supposed to be. not saying i wanna end any friendships.. but ugh.. she can be pretty annoying at times. advicenators, help!

Ah, the petty fight friend. Everyone has had someone like this in their life.
I'll state the obvious: She doesn't sound like a good friend.
It sounds though like you spend a lot of time together. Maybe too much time together? If I was in your situation I would walk away for a while, then come back and see how the friendship is.
What I'm saying is have a talk to her and tell her how she's acting (if you want to be nice say somethings you've done too) and you think it's best if you spend some time apart.
Sorry that's all I can come up with.
