I am so mad at B. I'd love to slap her arrogant, fat-lipped face. Why does she always need so much attention? Why would she try to make T. like her?
-- to make herself feel good by putting someone down (in a different-from-usual way? saying, in effect, "You don't know how to do it but I can…")
-- to test my friendship -- would I like her even if she took away someone I liked?
I had heard from other people before I was friends with her never to tell her who I liked or she'd flirt with them and make them like her. Every time I've told her I liked someone, she's done it, even when L. and I tried an experiment by telling her I liked J. when I really didn't. (I've talked about her with H., too, her inconsistency of affection toward him -- only when people are looking.)
I know she doesn't care if she takes away Mike because she's not friends with his girlfriend, but if she wants to be friends with me she has to stop doing that. She has to decide if the attention of a boy she doesn't especially like is worth losing a friend for.
She thinks she's doing me a big favor when she calls (orders) over the guys I like so I can talk to them. I get the impression she's just saying, "See what power I have over the boys!"
She doesn't think it's fair that girls are jealous of her -- but it's not that, really. She just chooses the wrong guys to go after. Even if a guy is your first choice, you can't go after him (if he's someone else's) without making someone mad. You shouldn't act so naive and hurt if people hurt you in return.
