i had this friend and we were tight for a long time and i started getting sick of her. she would brag about things(i hate that), steal from me(that's just messed up)...the point is she was really annoying. i have to see her everyday and she's so weird. she's into a lot of drugs and she has all these new friends, but she still brags and tells me about her life, what would you do?, she already knows i don't care at all. i'm sick of hearing and seeing her.

Friends will come and go as you grow older. Sometimes people just need to go their own separate ways. Time has a way of changing things and the values of people don't always stay the same. Your friend is doing things that violate your values...stealing, bragging, hanging with people who might be doing the wrong things. Sometimes you grow and the people around you stay the same. It is up to you whether or not you'd like to keep moving forward without them or stay behind with them. It is okay to let go of friends if they are not on the same level as you anymore. You don't have to hate the person but you also don't have to act like you are the best of friends when you're not. How can you remain friends when you have lost the common ground that made you friends in the first place? I would just tell her the truth and go on with my life. If she has the nerve to steal from you, she doen't sound like much of a friend anyway.

We need friends as the saying goes: no man is an island. It is normal for friends to have misunderstanding for sometimes, it's part of friendship. Troubles help us learn and teach us to deal with our friends.

I say cut her off! keep her phone number so you know it's her but don't answer or even listen to her voicemails. Also, try to delete the text before you read them(if your phone lets you do that). Just like that, cold turkey and hopefully she won't stalk you! hope that helps... happy friendship riddin'!
