So when she's bored, she'll either call me, or Olivia.

I really don't like hanging out with her as much as I used to, and I wish we could stop hanging out as much as we do.

The thing is, she calls me EVERY fucking day to hang out. I keep coming up with excuses to say no, but the next day she'll call again.

I even made a point of it... I was scrolling through my phone with her, and I ran into missed calls. I said "oo, I missed two calls by you"

then she laughs and goes "oh, I'm persistent."

Ugh. I wanna cut out of this friendship but I know if I do it'd be her losing one of her two sole friends.

What do I do???

That's so manipulative, I don't even know where to begin.

Why don't you want to hang out with her?

If she's just not all that fun to be around, you could always invite her to hang out with you and a group of your friends, so she still gets to hang out with you, but you don't have to be with her continually.

We've had a really rocky past. It was great at first, but once we became close she began to lean on me for emotional support-- she was extremely depressed, and was suicidal for months. I had to call the ambulance on her twice because she was like "alright, I gotta go now it's time to kill myself".

She's better now, but it's tainted between us. It's never gonna be the same fun, happy friendship it once was. She's made me feel so shitty about myself, more than any other person in the world. I can't hang out with her anymore.

That, and she's generally a very negative person and hates all of my friends.

I have that problem, ignore her, don't respond for 3 days, then after that wait a week to respond, she will get the message she's bugging you.

I've BEEN ignoring her (hence the two missed calls). But like she said, "she's persistent" and will call back three or four times in a day if I don't pick up the first time. It's not like she's going to find plans with someone else.

And you feel bad about cutting this person off why? It's not your fault she has so few friends. She needs to learn to fend for herself and not depend on you so much. And she sounds like a bad influence on your life.

 it will be a pain, but she should calm down , if you just don't answer her calls at all

hmm what an annoying situation. well dont do what those people said about fighting with her or lying to her. thats so mean and she will find out.
i have been in a situation like this before- but i actually couldnt stand the person suddenly... so it was hard to hide... but i just spent less time with them at school and stuff, sat with different people. then they thought i hated them so they got pissed off too and we didnt talk for a while. it wasnt great. i am on speaking terms now but we have never been the same, not that i care. but i still feel bad about what i did and i should have been straight from the start. freezing someone out is never a good idea.
so anyway- if she calls you alot, ignore some of her calls... tell her you need some space and maybe you want to widen your circle of friends... or like what that person said, hang out with her in a group, then she wont be bugging you the whole time. unless shes one of those ones who follows you around. ugh anyway.... its a hard thing to do, stop being friends with someone, especially when they dont have anyone else, and there is probably no way you can do it without hurting her feelings just a little bit. goo d luck though and i know how you feel!

Ouch. That's a difficult one.


You could try telling her you're really busy, and then only pick up her calls every few days.

Nothing horribly manipulative, just forcing a distance between you.
