Nallie answered Friday March 21 2008, 11:31 pm: I don't blame you for how you feel, I would need my space away from someone like that too. Asking if you have money is just rude, almost like she intends on using you, but then she probably doesn't know any better. She is probably a very lonesome person, and perhaps driving people away and not knowing that she is doing so. I call people like this "Cling Ons" once you are nice they take it like you are their best friend in the whole world. Unless you know of someone who is needy for friendship that you can introduce her to, You are probably just going to have to come out and say what about her is bothering you. Be tactful and honest and in the end, you may help her to see how her behavior affects people. So even if she is upset at the moment, maybe she will see the light and do better in other friendships in the future.

You can also try talking to her, but it could hurt her feelings, or she can just take it the wrong way.
if you dont want to even be friends avoid her [ basketballchick14's advice column | Ask basketballchick14 A Question ]

or if you want space for your other friends then you should make plans with them before she asks to hang out [ x0xqtpiex0's advice column | Ask x0xqtpiex0 A Question ]
