Unhappy I'm too nice. . .help me?

SO there is a person I need to rid myself of. I have to be very gentle of her feelings as she is in an emotional state (she has depression) but I do need her out of my life (as posters have reminded me) So can someone help? How can I kick her out of my life without hurting her feelings. . .I dont want to end something on bad terms (then it will just nag my conscience) but I know I need to end it before she brings me down. . .so PLEASE pretty PLEASE help!

Yeah, I know the feeling of driving a crappy car. I drive an 88 town car, and it's an eye sore...No girl would ever go out with me in that car.

well said Entropy!

I agree. Ditch her to save yourself. I have had quite a few friends like her. (I'm a slow learner. ) Take it from me, you'll be SOO much better off with out her. You don't need her dragging you down.

Ditch her.

she doesn't seem like a friend, more like an acquaintance..I don't know, but a friend wouldn't spurt out your sexual activities to other people and other stuff that bring you down. She sounds like my "friend" he does insults me without realizing what he says until I get mad at him. What should you do? don't associate with her anymore

:: SIGH :: i hear what your saying, and its something I have thought about SO very often (her bringing me down) but I . . . I guess I worry about her. She definetly doesn't handle rejection very well. I am going to change the O.P. to address the question of ridding myself of her.

Ridding yourself of people who bring you down isn't easy. But its not your job to be her friend. Try and put some distance between you two and maybe she'll get the hint.

well I have tried that. . .she just commences stalking me at that point. calls me NON-stop and i mean non-stop (when she calls my phone her specialty ring is silent) has showed up at my job to ask me where i've been and why i haven't been answering her calls. . .what to do? I know its not my job to be her friend and if it is I'm not getting paid nearly enough for what I go through. urgh. Maybe I could just send her a video of tom petty's "dont come around here no more" with the subject line " here's an idea " lol but i do want to thank you for your advice. . im not trying to shoot it down even though it seems that way.

Wow. With a friend like her, who needs enemies? If you're interested in helping her out, don't let her get away with walking all over you. The way she treats you isn't okay, and allowing her to behave like that with you is just going to show her that she can do whatever she wants and still have friends. Sleeping with your boyfriend? Telling people that you're a little [color=#fa7777]* [/color][color=#fa7777]* [/color][color=#fa7777]* [/color][color=#fa7777]* [/color]ty? Constantly putting down your belongings? Why do you want to be around someone like that?

Block her number if you can and tell her straight up how you feel about her
