But what ever it was she was wrong to imply such things in your home. And without any defense from her as to why she said such things it was right to ask her to leave. My natural thought would have been to assume she had a lot more going on in her head than she wanted to talk about. I might than explained to her that those subjects are personal and not a joke or a means of getting attention and not welcome in my home. I am not certain I would have asked her to leave only because I am never certain as to why people say what they say. It would have been an awkward evening though if she had stayed. You did the right thing in your home. But if someone is her friend maybe they can talk to her. She may not be suicidal but something seems off for her to act that way. That situation was awkward at best. Sorry you had to go through that.
thank you....no no mental disorders or anything like that. her partner said she grew up as an only child so all the attention growing up was on her. it's her normal to be the center of attention and get it in what ever ways she can as part of being an only child. I have no doubt her and her will have or did have a heart felt discussion about how she can not manipulate their friends like this.
