A Clingy Chica

Your BFF is stuck to you like glue, so you ask for a little breathing room.  The chat with her doesn’t go so well, and she tells you its either besties or enemies. Trying to be an average friend just won’t do for this clingy chica. Attempting to bring up the idea of friends again, she flips out and decides to not talk to you ever again. 


My (former) best friend was stuck to me like glue. Physically. I got really claustrophobic from her being around so much and I asked for space nicely because I was getting kind of annoyed. Then she says, “Fine I will leave you forever!" and freaked out. Then we had a long argument and she wont talk to me at all.  I told her that I didn’t want to be her BFF because she was too clingy, and that I didn’t want to be enemies either.  But, she says I have to be one or the other. I just want in the middle.  Now she won’t talk to me at all, and says I’m a snob. She refuses to talk to me about it any more, and doesn’t want anything to do with me.


BFF Fix-It:  You did the right thing in coming to her to let her know how you were feeling, but not meaning to, you might have came on a little strong. This girl might have just really looked up to you and that’s why she was stuck to your side. Give her a little time, and maybe try writing her a note to let her know you’re sorry and you still want to be friends.  You don’t have to flat out tell her that you don’t want to be BFFs, but just tell her you want to be friends, and treat her like your other friends, not like a BFF.  If she still refuses to talk after another apology and sorry note, the friendship might not be salvageable.
