A female Australia age 41-50, anonymous writes:

A long term friend of mine , known her 30 yrs.. (see her every 4 wks) has only 1 other friend gets ? Jealous

Changes the subject

Talks over me

When I mention, casually as part of normal catch up conversation what I did with other friends in our time apart

I have very few friends and i like seeing them all, I do not boast or brag! And im making conversation..

Yet she talks at times what she did with her friend and i listen and dont get jealous or "snappy" or rude

Whats up with her?

aunt honesty agony auntShe may be feeling lonely and does not want to hear about your time with other friends, it could be she is not interested in your life, or it could just be that she is jealous of you. Talk to her next time she does this and tell her how it makes you feel.

Youcannotbeserious agony auntCould you one of two things: either she is jealous or she is just rude and uninterested in what is going on in your life.

I hope she makes up for her manner in other ways, otherwise why have her as a friend?

Honeypie agony auntIf this is the norm... why not talk about other things with her?

She sounds like a bit of a selfish person. Maybe she is a little jealous that you GO do thing? If so... not really your problem.

If she talks over you (aka interrupt) make her aware that she is doing it. I absolutely hate that, but I AM guilty of doing it myself at times, if it's a subject I'm fond of...
