Would you call this a real friend?

Not too sure about this friend of mine...

 

She was over my place this weekend. Invited herself over. I had nothing else on so was fine with that.

 

Then she goes on about how the only reason why she was over was because her boyfriend was Overseas (making me sound like a last resort).

 

Then when I make her Dinner she posts something up about it on Facebook saying that I burnt her Ravioli even though it was perfectly fine! Then 'jokingly' went on about **** music (I had playing on cable TV) and **** service I was giving her. Even though I had snacks and Dinner all set out for her.

 

Later on that night I jokingly asked her how she would describe me as a person (kind of testing her cause of how she seemed to be perceiving me all weekend) and she could not even say anything nice about me. When she did come out with things it was all negative!

 

Have also been bagged out in front of others as well when things did not go her way after we hung out one night. I did not think I was in the wrong there at all and even made sure she was fine with it when I had left early. Still she seems to leave out that part when she goes on about it. .

 

It seems so weird to me that she feels the need to put me down and bag me out in order to look more better. .

 

If this were you would you be feeling the same?

If you have to ask if this is a real friend, you already know the answer.

What I find puzzling is that you even use the term 'friend'....

 

cut her off, ignore, do not respond, reply react or retaliate.

 

Drop her like hot schiytte off a shovel.

Faster, in fact.

 

And walk away.

It smells bad, see.....?

No she's not a real friend. She's a "convenience" friend ie she's your friend when it's convenient for her and then puts you down to feel better about herself.

 

I've had quite a few of those and learnt to just cut them off quickly. They aren't worth the drama.
