Does anyone else have to cope with something like this?
I have a friend who can only be described as possesive, although "incredibly self-centered" might do too.
Basically, the impression she gives me is that she wants to be the number one best friend in everyone's life and really hates competition. She can't stand it when I have friends outside of her circle of friends, and as I don't have any other friends from her group she's really easy to infuriate.
She even tried to hook me up to another guy as she didn't like mine because he'd never mingle in "her" group either. (despite the fact that we've been together for 6 years)
She'd casually insult my friends, making it look like "funny comments" (e.g. when referring to one of them she'd say "oh, it's the fat chick?") up to insane jealousy streaks which are just plain scary.
When in conversations, just imagine someone who constantly talks about herself, doesn't hear what you say, but feigns interest all the time.
I often have the impression that if I'd say "Today a nuclear device exploded in my fridge and a green flying dog ate my invisible hamster" she'd answer "Oh GOODIE!! But guess what I did today!!??"
Her latest "quirk" is to order me around and get angry when I don't contact her. Of course I'm getting more and more a "I don't give a fuck" attitude towards her, which doesn't help her temper.
I really wish she'd get over herself...
