Best Friends On A Budget
My best friend tries to be perfect and like she’s all mature and everything and tries to be all cool and stuff like changing her personality to please everyone else and without realizing it she says little things that put me down. She also acts like if something’s not her style, then it shouldn’t exist. Like most of the tv shows I like and some other stuff. All she does is talk about her boyfriend, even tell the same stories over and over until you can say the next line of the story. I hate it when people think they have to act like everyone else thinks they should. If her boyfriend likes girls with long hair, she won’t cut her hair. Then in relationships, she has all these ideals in her mind about how everything has to be, and how her children have to be and what activities they have to be in then when her relationships don’t work out it’s an even bigger let down. The problem is she tries too hard to be perfect and follow the rules and her morals are a little too high. not that theres anything wrong with high morals, but if someones morals are different from hers, she has trouble letting other people be themselves and is afraid to make mistakes and when we get together all she does is talk about herself and people I don’t know but if I talk about some of my friends she doesn’t know or a story i wrote or something she acts bored. we’ve been best friends practically our whole lives and she didn’t start acting perfect until about she started dating. I don’t know whether or not I should tell my friend if she keeps acting like this. Sometimes she’ll compare me to her and say you like this, I don’t she expects everyone else to compromise but won’t.
Oh, the life of a prima donna! Girls like this are soooo easy to crack! She’s acting like this because she’s horribly insecure and doesn’t know how to handle it like a grownass woman. So just keep putting her in check. Since her personality is greatly affected by those around her, use her insecurites as your leverage. Do a little scoff and roll your eyes a little bit when she starts poppin off at the mouth and be totally oblivious when she acts bored with you. Walk away, completely, in the middle of a story you’ve heard more than once and call her out when she’s doing it. Eventually, she’ll tone down her attitude so that you’ll stop putting her insecurities (that she’s trying so hard to hide and control) on blast. And if that doesn’t work try something physically. A punch to the side of the face always puts a mouthy bitch back in her place.
