There is a friend, Christina, who drives me raving mad. She is currently skipping her blissfully unaware way to my strangling her. I really don't know where to start.
1) She always says "I know you" to support her statements about me. This comes from the fact we were close seven years ago before my mom moved to VA. The fact is seven years we didn't talk or see eachother much. The fact we hang out now doesn't mean we've know eachother forever.
2) She, in just introducing herself, can reveal several years of background information about herself and others. Without more than 20 sentences. She has in previous moments revealed things I told her to keep confident, as well as just casually and publicly bring up sensitive personal things. For example, here's part of a phone call: Christina: "So, what was that on you Xanga? Iis that true?" Me: "This is why I don't want people I really know reading that. I don't want to talk about it, Christina." Christina: "Okay, sorry I'll stop." Me: "Fine" Christina: "But was that really true--"
3) She is loud. Very loud and rather shrill voice too.
4) She embarrasses me infront of people I don't even know with all three of the above statements.
5) She whines and moans about her life all the time. She says "I've forgotten happiness" and a bunch of crap, when I saw her perfectly hyper and happy the day before. The worst things she has to offer are her parents arguing and hating then switching loving her friend/boy toy. I understand she has a right to feel sadness, but she really overdoing it.
6) Always saying how people don't accept her and shit. It comes with the territory, you gotta get used to it. You only have the right to brag if you do somthing back. War stories are better than abuse ones.
7) She ditches me when another source of conversation appears. When I took her with me and Prime to Los Angeles for a weekend to see a HIM concert, she suddenly became attached to Prime's arm and forgot me for the two days we were there (and whined and refuse to enjoy the concert because she lost her hat.) On the fourth of july she dragged me out in the sun to see the parade, when we went to see it at the house of a guy she likes, I was pushed aside anmd ignored. Later that day we when to the house of the friend she screws around with behind his girlfriends back, they became attached at the face for the rest of the day. I sort of sat around plotting my escape.
8) She has awful mood swings, she goes fromm manicly hyper to depressed and mad at you in seconds. It happens all the time, and it's downright miserable to be near her when she's sulking.
9) She constantly brings up the past and crap. She can mention a certain incident of somthing someone did to her or somthing she's done 5 times a day.
Despite all that, I don't mind her so much in small doses, but how the hell do I get her to face reality? Or at least go away?

I says...
#1.When she talks to you like shes known you her whole life, just nod. You've told her your point of view on that subject many times, and she doesn't listen, so just nod.
#2. Change your Xanga name.
#3. Can't really do much about her voice other than interuppt her and go on wild tangents of your own to prevent her further spewage of information.
#4. I really don't know what you can do about her embarrassing you...I guess try not to meet people with her around.
#5. I think she just wants attention...But don't blow her off. Just sorta don't listen.
#6. You are very right. I would much rather tell someone about how I got in a fight with my cellmate than how I got butt-raped by him.
#7. That was fuckin' annoying, and I wanted her to hang with you. And if she brushed you off on the 4th too, then that was a really shitty thing to do. Whenever you go to a party with her, take a cell phone. If she scampers off, then call and get picked up.
#8.Nothing you can do about that, and it might not be her fault either. Maybe she is a little bipolar.
#9. That is one that you should argue with her about. If she says "Well, this girl stabbed me in the back, and now I hate her", you say "Well, you stabbed me in the back, should I hate you?"
TFE: Talking is like totally so last month. Absence: yeah man, it's all about communicating through the noises small children make when you urinate on them.
