My so called 'friend' thinks the worst of me but still wants to hang out?

You are so right. She definitely does not respect me at all. How can you repair a friendship that does not respect you? Exactly.

 

Makes me wonder why she wants to still be friends with someone she does not respect. I can't be friends with someone I don't respect.

 

I will only tell her this if she asks me outright why I have not kept in touch for a while. If I hear nothing. Then will just do the fade out on her.

If I do talk to her about this and she asks what I mean if I say to her "because I don't enjoy being verbally abused. I can just use the examples from the original post I gave. Plus a few others that are not on there.

 

She already sees me as a cowardly weakling. :roll eyes:. Geez reading this makes me wonder why I stayed friends with her for so long lol. Live and learn I guess.

Yes............I am glad you see the light. Like I said, I have been through this before. If you continue on with this relationship, you will start to have self-confidence issues. Verbally abusing a person can have harsher effects than physical abuse in the long run. Get away from that b*tch and stay away from her.

I know. I was already noticing doubting myself at times because she has also insulted my intelligence in the past. She makes me out to be the dumb one at times.

 

Example from the original post: When we were at this event thing and I volunteered to keep her friends son under my wing "oh you would not be in his intelligence level." I thought that comment was seriously mean.

 

Did not say anything and just kept my mouth shut. Just thought you bitch!

 

I know she is full of **** but it does leave me thinking WTF?! Also. Not in a dumb way. Just in a you have got to be kidding me, kind of way.

 

I read somewhere that people who act this way, they are the ones that are being dumb and mature.

 

I am just glad that I am comfortable with myself and like myself enough not to feel the need to get like this with other people. Shakes head.

 

I am glad after all these years it has not eroded my confidence because I have learnt to ignore what she says but after the whole 'event thing' that really was the last straw.

 

I mentioned just this one thing in regarding that to someone at work. She was like "I am sorry, but your friend is a cow! I would stop being friends with her after that" even with that one thing.

 

She is lucky I still spoke to her a bit after that.

 

I was in a TV studio on Boxing Day. It was in a more professional setting. At times I chatted quietly with a couple of people in the audience, once while filming as well, got a bit silly in front of the camera's when waving, giving the thumbs up and doing funny poses once or twice. That was fun.

 

Stage manager did not care or say anything. At all! Even got smiles and a wink from one of the guys hosting as well. Good ego boost that. . They were pretty laid back there.

 

Just showed me even more, how full of **** my friend was about the whole 'event' thing.
