hi everyone, i haven't posted in awhile, but i need some help on a situation i'm having.

my boyfirend and i have a group of people we hang around a lot. i get along with everyone and everyone seems to like me also. i've been around this group of people for a little over 2 years.

at first, when i started hanging around, i really liked this girl a lot. she made me feel like part of the group, even though i was new. so, for a long time everything was cool and normal.

about 6 months ago, i began noticing this girl starting to be an attention "whore" with the guys....just freaking always talking, laughing, trying to get "too close" to my boyfriend, in my opinion...anytime we're in a group and she's there she never seems to shut up. also, her family is rich. they live in the next town over from us. we've been to her parents house 2 times, both times she wanted to show us every little thing about the house, like it's a big deal. she always brags about....her parents this, and...her parents that....and her wedding dress cost more than a car....(she's getting married in december) she dosen't even appreciate anything anyone does for her. she acts like a spoiled little rich brat...i just can't stand to be around her.

so anyway, once her and her boyfriend got engaged (the 1st part of march) they haven't been coming around as much. (mostly because she's got him whipped)...i could live with putting on a front and acting like i actually like her once in awhile when they did come around, but now it seems like they're all of a sudden around all the time again. like, next month for 3 or 4 days in a row we have to be around them. i'm not looking forward to spending time with this girl. i really can't stand being around her.

i know some of you will probabily suggest that i just don't go when she's around, but that's not possible. i want to spend time with my boyfriend and my other friends, plus i don't want any of them to know i feel the way i do, because it would make me look bad. i don't want to look bad.

so i need ways to handle this...

what are your suggestions? besides not going around at all.

thanks in advance :-)

I think its her nature to be the way she is . Its just that you and that female friend are different personality, all u can do is talk to her personally about her behaviour and in a polite way , its better to say things directly may be u find better side of her also. ;)

Well if she's already engaged, her getting "too close" to your boyfriend shouldn't be an issue anymore. If you're getting a "rich and bratty" type vibe from her, close your eyes and say to yourself "be happy you're not like that" a few times, suck it up, and you'll feel good as new ;):p Does your boyfriend know how you feel? If not, may be a good thing to discuss with him. Maybe he feels the same way too.

ah shes one of those "me me me" people is she? i hate those! Was friends with a girl like that a while ago. My advice is 2 be pleasant to her if u want to hang around with every1 else, but focus on those u do like n just let her fade into the background. i know its hard, especially if every1 else gets on well with her. good luck xxx

You have to wonder why you're only seeing her negative attributes, instead of the positive ones you used to see in her. Is it possible that you're a little envious, jealous and threatened? Food for thought.
