Wow, that sucks Vanessa! I had the same situation a few years back when I was just ready to really start dating; a friend I’d had for years would always make a point of interrupting conversations with dudes and talk of things she knew I didn’t engage with. I thought I was paranoid, but it happened so many times I knew I wasn’t just being jealous.
So, step one: TALK TO HER ABOUT IT. We chatted over coffee at my place as she could leave any time and it was private there. She didn’t say much, but denied doing it – I thought maybe she hadn’t realised and thinking that now I’d told her she might not do it any more we left on friendly terms. If you’re not comfortable talking with your friend or it goes badly when you do, consider how much of a friend you actually consider her.
Step two: See what changes, and if nothing does, she may not really be a friend. If you like her still, you could be more choosey about where you go with her, however from my experience, I recommend reconsidering her company! I still see my friend, but we never go out to ‘Party’ together. It changed our friendship, but for the better!
Bonus: if he offers, get dessert. Thank me later. Tootles!
]]>Aubrey, I wouldn’t have taken it personal, due to the fact he was “working” and if you were up front and center, I don’t think they ever look there! :-) As you probably have heard that when on stage, not to look at people, look over, or see them naked! lol… I know your post was a while ago, but felt like answering any how…. blessings! You probably dating someone new by now or him.
