I have a friend...let's call her "Megan". Megan and I are pretty cool. We hang out at school, between classes and after school on occasions. I have no problem going places with her, spending the night at her place...stuff like that. We're pretty good friends. She just has this really annoying habit of always trying to ruin someone else's good time.

Like, in an argument, when she's wrong and you're right, she'll scramble for any possible reason to say you're still wrong. Or if something good happens to you, she'll always say something to make you feel terrible about it. I hope that makes sense. It bothers me a lot and I've tried telling her it's annoying, but she still does it.

I don't want to stop being friends with her. She's cool most of the time. This is just starting to get to me. Why can't she let anyone else have a little sunshine sometimes? :(

it sounds like she is trying to make herself feel better, because maybe she's not so secure inside. if she wont listen to you when you confront her, you have other options. if this behavior is really bugging you, try to avoid getting in these situations where she acts like that. when its happening, walk away and ignore her. this will give the hint that you are fed up with what she's been doing. if you know of any problems she's been having that could cause stress, let your friend know you are there for her.
