Hey My name's gen. :] My goal in life is not to have an average of a 5 rating all the time.
I'm an overrall nice person, but when it comes to advice, I will be blunt if necessary. I will be harsh if necessary. Just because I can't stand being mean to someone but the fact that I don't know who you are, I can be mean with the answer if I want to. :)

Okay, so I'm going into 8th grade after Summer this year, and I want to make new friends. Problem is -- I have one particular friend that makes it hard. Really hard.

Like she'll get really mad whenever she hears I've gotten together or made other plans with other friends (even if it's my cousins!) and insist or invite herself to come with.

But she's friends with this other girl that I'm also friends with, and we were all supposedly close through 7th grade. I've been friends with the girl that makes it hard to make friends (Let's call her A) since halfway through kindergarten!

The thing is, that A thinks we're still BFFs, and no matter how many times I try to tell her, I get the same result. She's like "No I don't!", we get into the occassional fight, then get back together. But this time I don't wanna get back together. I never really did. It's not that she's a bad person or anything... it's just that I can't be friends without her holding me back. I know I must sound really unloyal but I want a new group of friends, and fast! In time for 8th grade.

Luckily -- There's a possibility we won't be going to the same highschool. I'm willing to wait and all, because once I get there it'll be GREAT, but I just don't know what to do. What if we do end up going to the same highschool? Odds are we wouldn't have many classes together anyway.

Evidently I just need new friends, you don't know my past with her... and it's come to light that I really need to tell her. I can't just expect her to know why -- but how do I tell her?

How do I tell her the friendship should be cut off?
How can I branch out for friends in 8th grade?
(I go to a Private School so it's pretty small and not a lot of people, mostly just the same people that think I'm weird I think)
I want 8th grade to be perfect, I really do. So how can I make it that way?

--Many thanks! (link)
Uhh, well you got to tell your girl that all she's being right is ANNOYING AND CLINGY. Tell her you need some space too, and that you want to make some new friends too. Just tell her the truth and be blunt about it. Don't try to sugarcoat your words and make it seem like you're not serious. Because if you've already tried to explain this to her before, it's time to get harsh, unfortunatly.

Tell her that EVERYONE needs space and that she's been invading your breathing space for a long time and now it's time for you to take a DEEEEP breath.
