She’s sooo needy and never makes a decision without consulting you. She calls and texts constantly, and won’t do anything without you right by her side.
My BFF is clingy. She gets upset if I don’t respond right away to her texts or won’t follow the routine (like meeting before lunch). I have cousins our age, but they hate my BFF. I can’t tell her because she really likes them. Now my cousins never want to hang out because my BFF is always with me. When my BF broke up with me, he mentioned my ‘shadow’ and how dating me was like dating both of us.
BFF Fix-It: Having a friend love you like a puppy isn’t the worst thing. But smothering you? Yeah, that’s bad. Set clear boundaries. If you can convince her that time apart makes a friendship stronger, you’ll be gravy. If she’s sucking your energy dry like Dracula, you’ll have to decide for yourself if it’s worth it.
