I have this friend that thinks she sould be invited to everything.She thinks that I can only hang out with her. Everytime she calls to see if I wanna hang out with her, I just cant say no.She flips out when I say no and gos running to her mom, and she comes back saying that I have to hang out with her because her mom says I have to. I really dont wanna hang out with her because she is acts like she is the boss of everything,and we have to do what ever she wants to do. What should I tell her when she calls to hang out and I dont want to?? Please answer!
Thanks...

Dog answered Friday July 2 2004, 3:44 pm: I have two things to do. You can tell your mom to anwser the phone all the time and tell her to say that your not there, or you can just tell that you don't want to now and if she tells her mom tell her who cares and when she decides to do everything her way, just ask her to do somthing your way or others ideas. Try that. Good Luck. [ Dog's advice column | Ask Dog A Question ]
readmyElips answered Friday July 2 2004, 2:31 pm: i think you should tell her exactly what you think, that she bosses you around and that isn't what FRIENDS do. tell her that if you want to hang out then it is my decision wether or not i want to, not yours. you have a voice, use it! xo Cay :D [ readmyElips's advice column | Ask readmyElips A Question ]
JessieV answered Friday July 2 2004, 1:50 pm: Dear Kelsey,
Everyone has a friend like that including me If you dont really want to hang around with her just tell her the truth and maybe she'll understand or you could find her another friend that is like her and maybe she'll forget about you and go off with her.

selectopaque answered Friday July 2 2004, 1:45 pm: Try calmly talking to her and tell her exactly how she makes you feel. Tell her that she tries to boss you around too much. Tell her that you have other plans sometimes and can't ALWAYS hang out with her. Tell her that you still want to be her friend, but you wont be able to handler her if she is too overpowering.
Don't just lie to her and avoid her, just tell her the truth. If she can't get it, then you might have to take a break from hanging out with her at all. She needs to understand that she can't control everything you do. [ selectopaque's advice column | Ask selectopaque A Question ]
chaos answered Friday July 2 2004, 1:35 pm: Tell her you don't want to hang out with her right now. That there is something else you would rather do. Apparently you need a break from this person. You might have your mom talk to her mom if its a huge problem. [ chaos's advice column | Ask chaos A Question ]
