I have a best friend,
and we've been friends for a few years now,
but I'm really getting annoyed with her.
She always wants to hang out and its really frustrating to me to have someone constantly need me, I have other friends, unlike her.
She uses that as an excuse to make me hang out with her too.
What do I do?
I've already tried explaning to her
how I feel about it too.
But really shes getting on my nervous.

My Best friend is my next door neighbor and we used to hangout all the time and i would get annyoed at her too and last year i told her that i have other friends then just her and she got mad at me and well she got over it. and well i don't know if this will help or not but i think u need to talk to her a little more and make sure she understands and if she doesn't then im not sure what else u can do but that is my answer and i hope i did ok.

what i'm doing is i try to seperate myself from her. she has to get everything her way, she has to have me for the boringest stuff, etc.
so over the summer, i just didn't really talk to her taht much. and at school, i know i'm barely going to see her.
since you don't want to cause a big high school drama, you should pretend that you still like her like your bff. you should get involved in activities like sports, or clubs, etc. so you can make up an excuse to be away from her when she gets really clingy...
