SO. Usually, you can count on me for anything. All that I ask is that you return the favor if I need a small favor or even if I just need a friend at some point. Almost all of my friends are wonderful, and are just as helpful, caring, and uninhibited when it comes to lending me a helping hand. However, I have one friend who must think that the earth revolves around her, every single person she knows should be there to drop everything and help her when she requests it, and even when a friend does help her, she is unappreciative and tends to complain that you are "doing it wrong" or "you could have done this better", etc. etc. It really hurts my feelings, but I sort of HAVE to be friends with this person. I can't really explain why on here because my readership has grown to include many people that know this person, and I don't want to get myself in trouble.
I'm not one to complain, but this just frustrates me, and honestly, it really hurts my feelings when I will lay anything out on the line for you and help you and assure you, however when I need one small favor you can't even follow through on it, or not even a favor.. just, if you screw something up that belongs to me, you don't even offer to help fix it or even just help the situation.
Sigh. I guess that's enough ranting for today. Sorry for the ranting post, sometimes I just need to get it out of me. Hopefully things will improve soon. If not, I'm going to have to seriously rethink future plans...

that's annoying...also, you're a better friend than i - i do not do bodily substances.
you are a good friend... i can barely deal with puke. haha..
love youu.
I know exactly what that feels like, and it is very frustrating. But you need to think of all the people you love to help, and how many of them truly appreciate who you are and what you do for them.
p.s. I have some unfortunate stories I could use to match yours...haha, you're not the only one there.
love & miss :)
Kris,
There is a VERY simple solution to this problem. Stop being her friend. Seriously, she sounds like she adds nothing but negativity and stress to your life. It is a very adult decision to decide to remove someone from your life, but as you get older, sometimes you have to put yourself first and let go of toxic people. It is hard, but worth it. Let her clean up her OWN shit.
Love you.
