lemonlegs Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 My good friend has consistently complained about not having a lot of girlfriends or no "real friends" (except for two girls that she has been friends with quite some time). I personally have a large social group that encompasses different groups of people and not just one group of friends, whereas she does not. She always comments that she wishes she could meet new people and hangout with a variety of people but whenever I ask her to come out, she says she's broke or is working, and yes, sure that happens sometimes, but I work, seemingly just as much as her, and still manage to find time to hangout with my friends. THEN, when she does go out and do fun things, like camping, or whatever, it's only those two friends mentioned above that are asked to go with her... and her boyfriend, whose bestfriend happens to be dating one of this girl's two good friends. That's fine and all that they may be close, but how do I go about expressing my frustrations? Or do I just let her wallow in her pity? It's really annoying...not mentioning kinda insulting seeing as I always ask her to participate and apparently it's not reciprocated.
Desert_Nights Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 I have a feeling she has some type of angst against you. For whatever reason - if she does - you should be quick to ignore them. Honestly, you should be looking elsewhere to spend your time. Girls like her will likely drain you of your energy and use you when they need something from you, no matter how big or small. If you genuinely try to help her with advice and outings of sorts and STILL there is nothing she does to pick up on it then leave her behind. You move ahead and hopefully she can follow and snap out of her funk. ^_^
