I don't know how to talk to her about this


Question Posted Wednesday February 28 2007, 11:26 am

I have this friend, and I've known her for... my whole life, however I'm not sure how much I can trust her with things, because I don't feel like her friend sometimes. I feel as if I'm second best; a last resort. If I'm there, I'm always there: reliable as always. It's like she considers me around to serve a purpose, and once that purpose is gone she doesn't want me any more. I need to know how to communicate this to her, and not make her angry/annoyed with me, and make her think I'm just being harsh and overly sensitive. I'm not going to just drop her, because I really do care about her, I just need to know how to speak with her about it.

Your friend is sometimes egocentric. This is a serious problem becuase if you don't talk to her, she will use you and if you do, she will get very mad and will be difficult to speak to.
You have a few choices which you might have to sacrifice.

1. Stop being friends with her- She's using you, being used is very pleasing.
2. Talk to her- If she was your real friend, she will understand. Maybe it's just her personality.
3. Do nothing

Hoped I help. If I didn't, very sorry!

Hi, erm what i suggest what you do is just confront your freind because that is just the best option! don't say it 2 her in a bitchy way but pretend your having a conversation then bring it up! Because that way she'll know your being genuine!
hope i helped

I'd tell her straight up. Say how you feel. If it makes you sound like a biatch then so be it-she's been a biatch to you this whole time.

Good luck

i am very extremely familiar with realationship problems.you should start off talking about all the good times you've had and how mmuch you like her as a friend. then you tell her that recently you haven't been happy with the way she is treating you and you really want to be friends but that she needs to play her part as a friend
***tell me what she says****
