This is just to get an idea of what people think about this? But what exactly is the friend for especially in cases of when the friend is an a relationship and asks you to hide stuff for them and sometimes involve you when you don't want to be. I hope you get what i am trying to say..

That is not a friend.

It is a selfish person who is using you.

Ask yourself: What are you getting in return from this "friendship"? If the answer is: Nothing but stress, then it's time to cut ties with this person.

Being a friend shouldn't be a "job". When it turns in to one, it is rarely worth it.

If a friend is in a desperate situation. or has a terrible illness then perhaps you could say you have a job to be supportive. But for this situation, you are being used. So, cut the ties to this selfish person. She'll find another person to use. You don't need this in your life.

I agree with the above. No friend.
