    I have a bit of a problem the girl I've been friends with for about 12 years she is very self absorbed person and all our mates follow her and listen to her like she is a god personally i don't see why, she can be very bit*hy towards any of us if something happens she doesn't agree with
    example, I am normally the kind of girl who gets bored with my bf's, but about eight months ago I met an amazing guy and am still with him but here lies the problem this friend of mine has gotten it into her head that he is one the bad ones as he didn't make a good first impression with her, and as he lives far away he doesn't be able to come on nights out as this friend always whets to go local now I can put up with her because of been friends with my other mates but lately I've seen to be left of of the 'gang' for nights out lunches etc and I am no longer been cc on emails

    I am not giving up the man I love because of her so this is why I'm here I need help?

    Life's too short to drink bad wine.
    If she is not adding positively to your life then why is she in it?

    Yep. Don't get this attitude of "oh well she's my 'friend' and we've been 'friends' for years" when the people in question don't even like eachother. You seem to not like the girl, she's being bitchy to you, they're excluding you... why bother with them?

    You're well shot of her, she sounds a bit jealous to be honest.

    And the rest of them are as bad following her around like sheep.

    Definitely, move on. Better friends await you!
