Question Posted Saturday November 5 2005, 12:17 am
I'm 13/f and have a nagging problem. My friend and I have another friend thats really starting to bug us. She feels left out so eaisly, and she has to know EVERYTHING. Like, if I was talking to someone and she just walked up, she would have to know what we are talking about. Also, my friend and I feel like we can never hang out with ought her getting mad. What do I do?

And if she gets mad because you hang out with other people sit her down and say "Look, you're my friend and you will ALWAYS be my friend. Just because I hang out without you sometimes doesn't mean that we're not friends anymore. But you're just kind of making me mad by accusing me of leaving you out all the time. I'm sorry you feel that way, and I don't mean to." [ markthegrave's advice column | Ask markthegrave A Question ]

Also, try to find her another friend. Introduce her to some ppl you know and maybe she will make new friends and not feel the need to hang around you and your friend so much. As for her getting mad at you and your friend if ya'll hang out without her, that's just plain stupid. I wouldn't worry about it too much, like I said just try to introduce her to some new ppl and she may start to leave you alone and become less dependant on you.
