my friend called and asked me for a blank Cd and I told her I can't get her one b/c they are my brothers.She kept saying 'oh just ask him' so I said 'i can't, because i had my other friend over and we were watching a movie`I am constantly giving her stuff.i'm not even kidding. I give her clothes,i bought her lunch today(didnt even ask her to pay me back!)when i told her i couldnt she's like 'ok, whatever bye'i thought that was really rude.when people say the word 'whatever' to me i find it offensive and she hung up on me.what should i do? i did nothing wrong and just stuck up for myself...

As for letting her borrow your stuff and buying her lunch...if she doesn't appreciate it don't do it any more. She will get the hint. :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]
Mackenzie answered Friday April 29 2005, 8:07 am: Next time she asks you foR something that you feel is an unReasonable Request, tRy telling heR to go find it elsewheRe. This may seem a little haRsh, but the only way to get the point acRoss with beating aRound the bush and muddying the wateR is to be blunt and honest; call it tough love. PeRhaps this is just looking foR a fight, but in my opinion, she's asking foR it! Just keep youR chin up and stick to youR guns, yo; you did nothing wRong! Best of luck to you! Hope this helps! =D [ Mackenzie's advice column | Ask Mackenzie A Question ]

Spark120 answered Thursday April 28 2005, 9:41 pm: shes stunk up it sounds like.
it sounds like she thinks she can get whatever she wants...
i would tell her stop asking you for stuff and to go get it herself

xForeverxForgottenx answered Thursday April 28 2005, 9:21 pm: you're right, you did nothing wrong. friends like that tend to use people for things, im sorry to tell you this. and when you dont do what they want, they get mad at you. trust me, they're not friends worth having. it only hurts you more. stick up for yourself more and see what happens. maybe she'll realise that she was taking advantages of you. hope i helped.

Igotamonopoly answered Thursday April 28 2005, 9:03 pm: Wowzers. You are totally right, and your friend mooches off you like whoa. Ask her why she does it...and if she does it again, say ,"Why don't you do/get/pay for it yourself?". That is what I would do. I can't believe she is such a MOOCHER!!!

OhMyGodAshley answered Thursday April 28 2005, 8:32 pm: You need to stop giving her things, because now she just expects you to drop everything you are doing to do something or give her something. It sounds like she is using you for things, so maybe you should try to talk to her about it or just stop giving in to her. I'm not sure, but I have had people like that in my life, and I just let them go because they weren't true friends ya know? If you did nothing wrong, I think maybe you should take that into concideration. [ OhMyGodAshley's advice column | Ask OhMyGodAshley A Question ]
