Has this happened to you?

Hi mummybec, That is very scary and very annoying I'm sure your not very flattered about it, it reminds me of the single white female. I would stay away from her and let your friend know what she is doing,and you are better off if she is going somewhere else. Tamara

good day.. heavens no and I'll be really alarmed if a person tries to imitate me in everything I do. That's just weird.

Hi Mummybec, They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery but it can get really annoying can't it eh! They obviously look up to you and want to be like you as they admire your qualities. They probably lack self esteem and need building up what I suggest is that the next time they buy an out fit like yours give genuine advice but say in a kind way 'wow that is so like my outfit but for your figure what I would go with is this....................and ry to get them to create there own individual style. In fact the new Empire Stores catalogue has body shape suggestions so maybe take a peek at that and guide them away from copying you and to build their own unique image. Hope this helps. Ellie :D

I'm just wondering why she is copying everything you do? I could think, maybe she idolized you. But when I think of the latest she did? when she hang out also with your friends? I could feel that she is jealous with you. She wants to have what you have? It is kind of annoying but maybe it is good to be friend with her.Maybe she needs attention that's why she id doing that.

I have definitely had that happen. It was the most annoying thing ever, because I would go to school and my friend would wear the same thing as me. We looked like idiots. Also, one of my aunts is a copycat. My mom will buy something, and she will buy the same thing, but bigger or better. Then, she will boast about it non-stop. I just want to be like "if you were really that awesome you would have thought of the idea to buy it first". I would talk to her and tell her she needs to have her own personality. Of course, I'm a very blunt person and just to let you know, I am not friends with that girl any longer. So just be careful how you say it, I guess.

No.I never had that experienced. From the looks of it it's very annoying. What is she your twins? I wish i can delve in to her mind and discover what she's really thinking. As for now the best thing you can do is talk to her nicely. Maybe you could find the reason why she's copying your every moves.

I do not mean to impose, and I do hope that I do not sound rude by asking but is this woman your own sister in law? When you stated that she had become pregnant around the same time you had, it made me think that maybe you are referring to your sister in law. I myself have had someone copy me, however it was a bit different in that it was during school, not only that but also because the things she would copy is the way I said something and I would personally say it to her as I felt we were friends and then I found what I had said, coming out of her own mouth, but or thus making her popular. The things I said were not derogatory towards me in anyway but would rather be classified as catch phrases. I did become distressed by this and ended our friendship several times during school, but ofcourse she kept coming back and asking me to forgive her, and I did as I do not like to keep grudges. However, in your own case I would most likely suggest that you talk to her but if you do not feel comfortable with talking to her, maybe wearing something so hideous that she would not dare wear it will cause her to stop copying you. Buy a few outfits or put together an ensemble that is completely tacky and then see what her reaction would be. Oh yes, and also as for the friends this old friend of which I mentioned did try to steal my own friends. To that, she proved her own self not worthy of their frienship, give it time and this person may very well do the same.

First of all...sorry to go off on your discussion...been a long day! I had someone do something similar to what your expierencing. It would be little things like comments I would say and then she decided that she wanted my boyfriend and thought she was secret about it. She just didn't realize that I didn't like him anyways. I think you should be careful about what you say, because you don't want anything to come back and bite you because of it. I would sit down one on one and talk to your best friend. If she is any kind of best friend she will not allow her to take over yall's friendship. Might not even hurt for your husband to talk to her's. Think the sooner you get your feelings straightened out with her the better. Good luck in whatever you decide, hope it works out for the best.
