My annoying friend


Question Posted Thursday October 7 2004, 10:58 pm

14/f One of my friends is really starting to annoy me. It's not anything in particular that she does that gets on my nerves, it's just about everything she does. Some stupid/odd/quirky things she does that I used to like about her just annoy me. She's one of my best friends and I don't want to lose her. How can I stop being annoyed with her? I really don't want to be.

Hey,

If you are a boy, then the girl is probaly trying to get your attention in a odd way! It sounds weird but she may not no what
way how to get your attention! But if your a girl then your haggin
around a crazy BITCH! I'm sorry if I offended you but, it is kinda embarrising haggin around with her, so just tell her to stop playing and get a boyfriend or join or club or something! Just try to make her be mateaur for a change.

Hope it helps, WaDe

One of the main things about friendship is that you accept your friends for their fun/stupid/odd/quirky/crazy selves because all of those things make up the person that they are. You didn't go into any detail about what they are so as far as I can tell those things that attracted you to this friend is now annoying you. If we try and take the things that drew us to individuals away then you are trying to turn them into something that they are not. Or make them like you or someone that you admire or want them to be and that is not friendship. You care for your friend flaws and all or you don't. That is a decission that you have to make.

Now, if she is picking her nose in public or something inappropriate or disgusting then I would say that by all means you should talk to her. But, if she is simply doing the things that she has always done and those are some of the things that you used to like about her it is you that is changing not her and you either accept her at face value or you move on.

The good news on the other hand is that if you decide to accept her for her quirky/snnoying self and you chose that the friendship is more important than you dictating to her how she acts then in time as you both grow up and mature many transformations will take place and many of these annoying habits will go away and be replaced by different ones that maybe you can possibly handle a little better.

Remember that the only constant in life is change. Sometimes it is for the better and sometimes it is for the worse but the one thing in life that you can count on is that it will eventually change one way or the other. So will you and your friend and one day you may look back in your adult life and wish that you could go back on day and just hang with your annoying/quirky friend and not worry about life in the adult capacity.

If she is a good enough friend and she means enough to you to keep her in your life you will rarely be disappointed and in time the two of you will look back at some of the quirky/annoying things that you did during this time in your life and have a great laugh.

Best of luck. I hope that you choose friendship over annoying habits... :)

You should talk to your friend calmly about the problem. Say to her that she has been kind of annoying you and maybe tell her to calm down, and try not to be annoying.
Good Luck - QBillion

well i have the excact same problem the things she does just are getting way to old maybe you should just try dealing with it or maybe you should just talk to her... talking to her would probably hurt her feelings and make her mad at you but if thats what you need to do to feel comfortable around her then go for it... hope i helped hun.. keep me updated

You either learn to accept that this is the way your friend is, or you learn to tune her out.

Should you attempt to force your friend to change, then you're implying that you are somehow better than her, and that is going to piss her off, and justifably so.
