The Scene: You and your BFF are gabbing away at lunch about the amazing weekend you had. You notice two of your other close buds are exchanging eye-rolls and looking annoyed.
THE SHARE: First off, ask your other friends what they were up to over the weekend. Be sure to show some genuine interest. Then, suggest that you all get together as a group this coming Saturday for a girls’ night. Toss out ideas for things to do, but don’t lead the pack. Plan it out with the crew.
The Scene: You scored amazing tickets for the Jonas Brothers, and it’s assumed you’ll take your BFF. Thing is, another girl in your crew is a total Jo Bros fanatic, and your friend isn’t so much.
THE SHARE: This is the perfect opp to bond with another bud over your common love for the Apparatus. Take your friend who truly appreciates the band. Since your BFF isn’t all that into the music, she should be cool with it.
The Scene: When your class takes a field trip to the museum, you and your BFF head full-speed for the Egyptian exhibit (you’re both convinced you were Cleopatra in a past life!).
THE SHARE: Slow down. Seek out your friends, and include them in your quest. Then get them to point out their fave impressionist paintings so you can all discuss mummies and Monet together on the bus ride back.

Hey Runlover! I had a friend like that. She was younger than me and was ALWAYS bossing me arounnd. We took our distances for a little while then I tried to become friends with her again, and even with the second chance she still didn't get it in her head. Sometimes you have to kindly tell them, "You know what. I gave you a second chance to become a nicer friend with me, but I guess that you can't do that. I'm sorry but I don't think that I can be friends with someone who is bossy and can't change to save a friendship." I know that it might be hard but if you really are unhappy being with her. You know what you have to do. Hope it all works out.

Thanks for the advice GL! I don't have one bestie, but 4 and I like them all equally. When I have to chose one over the other it is the hardest thing we are all really tight!
