Or is it Part 4? Whatever.
So last weekend, I go to a party thrown by a mutual friend. My friend (the widow I told you about) is there, as were many mutual acquaintances. I preface this by saying, I drove myself - my friend came with two of her friends.
Okay, so we're all there, having a good time. This one woman I'll call "Evelyn" (not her real name), whom I met a couple of months ago through my friend, greets me warmly. We get to talking and turns out that we have a few commonalities. As we're talking, Evelyn is, as I'm later told, "all over me like a cheap suit". And I'd be lying if I said that I didn't feel some attraction to her.
Next day, my friend calls me. She's upset. Asks me - no, interrogates me: "Do you like her? Are you gonna call her? Do you wanna **** her...?" She's upset, hurt, saying things like, "I don't know if we're gonna continue our friendship...Evelyn is sneaky, she'll try to get information out of you about me...." and such stuff.

I keep telling my friend, and it's the truth: I'm NOT one to talk of other people! Any information I get, I keep to myself. Period. If anyone seeks information about a certain person, I firmly suggest they ask that person, and keep me the hell out of it!

So now, my friend isn't speaking to me! **long sigh**

My god almighty.

It's like a 15 year old girl is trying out her first attempt at a novel on us.

Not true as shown on this very forum in multiple threads in your written words.


OP: I can honestly say I have never in my 56 years of life seen so much dramatics within one group of people and I worked in Child Welfare for 15 years.


I urge you to think about finding a new group of less dramatic friends and choose your intimate partners a bit more carefully.

Look, I wouldn't believe it either if I hadn't seen it myself! After all I've been through, I can only say, "Holy smoke!"

I think that's for the best, and you should try to keep it this way.

Your friend doesn't want you but doesn't want anyone else to have you. It's messed up. You should kick this person out of your life. If she calls you up again, tell her "Frankly, it's none of your business." and hang up.

1. Why on earth would you allow a "friend" to interrogate you in such a demeaning fashion?
2. What kind of friend asks if you are planning to have sexual relations with another person? How is that ANY of her business?
3. Stop enjoying the jealousy. It's ridiculous.
4. Friends come and go. Look like it's her time to go.

That's pretty much all this is, isn't it?

Let her go, then. She doesn't want you, but she doesn't want anyone else to want you. She's a pill.
