Why must my best friend feel the need to one up me?


Recommended Posts

What do I do with a friend that is always dramatic and no matter what the circumstance tries to say the same thing is going on with her?

 

Here is the sitch. My best friend can be very dramatic or maybe dramatic isnt really the word maybe its more hypochondria (not sure if thats spelled right). She always thinks shes sick. If I have a headache she has a migrane. Well the tip of the ice berg came a few days ago when I told her there could be a very slim chance I might be pregnant because I was late and my bf and I had a slip up one night but too soon to tell (for the record I am not - got my period today - but would have been ok with being pregnant if it happened). Well yesterday she told me that she bought herself a pregnancy test and shes not. I asked her why since she gets the depo shot for her birth control whereas I am not on any birth control. She just said she had a weird feeling she might be pregnant.

 

WTF? She isnt like this with everything. We have been friends forever and she is someone I can really talk to and trust but this gets annoying after a while. Why do some people always need to one up ya?

She admires you and looks up to you?

 

Maybe hearing all your problems she starts thinking about them..and thinking about them..until she starts relating them to herself...and thinking about it so much that she starts having the same symptoms??

 

I had a friend like that once OMG it was annoying but it was for everything. I cut my hair, the next day she cut her hair, I got a tat, she got a tat.
