    I have a problem with one of my old friends from high school. I've known her since the transition from 8th grade to 9th grade. We know each other somewhat well, the problem is she's 25 and STILL acts like a 4yr old kid. I'm past the immaturity stage already. Within the past 3-4 years, I haven't seen her due to "her being too busy with her boyfriend." She doesn't even bother to return phone calls, and 2 yrs ago when she did have a fight with her bf. Guess what? she calls me up trying to give me some lame guilt trip about not calling her. HELLO! I tried calling her except that she doesn't bother to return my calls.

    I haven't talked to her in a long long time, thus out of nowhere, she starts to mention her birthday is coming up,etc. sounds like she's expecting presents or something like that.

    Anyhows, I got into a big fight with her last year regarding her birthday. I didn't want to go to her birthday event, because of many factors, mostly relating to people that I didn't want to see from high school, and her unrealistic idea of a birthday event. For her birthday, she wanted ALL of her friends to meet at her bf's place and make breakfast and pack up lunch, then to go fruit picking at 2 different places. She wouldn't let us met her at the fruit orchards. Later on she wanted everyone to go to some cheapass chinese takeout place for dinner. The majority of everyone is Asian, and I'm not stupid when it comes to food. Thus I don't care much about going.

    I talked to the friends from high school and a few of them told me that everyone decided on not giving gifts anymore, cause people were all f*cked up and being ridiculously cheap and bias towards certain people. Thus they had decided on dinner only, yet my friend still was clamoring for gifts.

    The thing that pissed me off about her the most was that I had already made plans to go to some event with my "usual suspects" 2 months prior. The only thing about that is my memory slipped about the event.

    So I told her that I couldn't go, cause I already had something planned. She all of a sudden got very demanding and pissed off. Demanding that I celebrate her b-day, as if she was the Queen of England or something.

    So since then, I havent talked to her at all. She pissed me off with this BS. 6mths later I tried to reconcile with her, but acting like a lil kid, she wouldn't even bother with it.
    Once on AIM, her response was this "check back in 6 months, maybe I'll forgive you then" I was like WTF?

    anyhows this immature friend just recently started talking to me AGAIN, and guess what?! her b-day is tomorrow.
    and AGAIN, she made some demand about attending her b-day at some chain restaurant. when she first started talking to me again, all she mentioned was lunch, but this stupid dinner is with high school people as well.

    Basically I don't give a rat's arsh about high school, and I don't even talk to her at all no more. I have my own group of regular friends that have nothing to do with them. I've graduated from college, and is starting my career next week. The only thing that is on my mind, was that during my graduation, she actually came with High school friends. and gave me a small graduation present.

    I've moved on with my life already, and it seems to be fine without my friendship with her. I seriously do not want to see those high school people ever. SOOOO damm fake.

    What should I do?............
     
  2. umm I don't think you need any advise... you already know what you want to do..

    if they're not really close friends... then yea don't bother with it. did you tell her that you didn't want to see those pple anymore??

    damn I remember some chick asking me to her birthday day dinner... I mean, I barely know the bitch -confused so i was like wtf you inviting me for.. -lol.

    So here's my advise... Unless the dinner is at some fancy restaurant... and they payin' for it... don't go.. -lol. I mean even if you're paying for yourself... don't put up with eating at crap ass restaurant...

    Broken friendships could heal... but a bad stomache can kill... *insert_confucious/wise smiley....*

    just ignore her.
    if she just come to you without a reason or whatever, just act like you don't see her.
    tell her to stfu and leave, cuz if she's not your friend and acting s**t to you, then don't bother with her.

    Getting rid of a prolonged friendship? If you really don't like the person, just ignore her and she'll eventually get the message. Though it might really hurt the person, but if you don't care... then do it.

    If you want to be even more evil, just tell her to f*ck off. =P
