Bossy Lady
Well I have a friend who is extremly bossy. I have tried talking to her about this but that didn't work. I have actually talked to her more then once. I noticed she doesn't only boss me around she bosses everyone around. The other day she was bossing her mom around a little even. I don't know how to tell her to stop and still be nice. I don't want to turn this into a fight. I love her but I am not going to be bossed around. I have started not doing anything she "demands" me to. But she still does. Please help!!!!!

Well she can't force you to do things. Yea she might be your friend and you feel like you have to listen to her and do what she says but really, you don't have to. If she tells you to do something you don't want to do, kindly tell her no. "No thats all right, I'm going to do this." or something along those lines. Hopefully sooner or later she'll get the hint. Maybe keep a close track of things she's demanding and around the time she's demanding it. So when you talk about it with her you'll have some back up information and it will be really hard and stupid for her to deny it.

If you and this friend do have really good times together then just keep doing what you've been doing. When she starts bossing you around, tell her that you aren't going to take her orders because you are her friend, not her servant.
Try calling her on it when it happens, if she's denying it, just call her on it. When she starts to get mean and bossy,. stop her and say, "See, this is what I'm talking about, I'm not going to be bossed around by you" and leave or something. Let her know that you aren't going to tolerate her bossy attitude.
If you feel that during the whole friendship she's bossy, then just tell her that this friendship isn't going to work out because of her attitude. If someone is bossy to one person, trust me, they are bossy to everyone else too.
