How infuriating. My friend simply doesn't see a glass half full. She only sees a glass half empty.

She is just an anxious depressive. I don't think I can handle her in my life.

But THANK YOU TISH B...because I followed your advice and I am glad I did. My friend and I are again speaking. Thank you, all, for your kind words and advice.

But at this time I must keep this friend at arm's length as her "aura" is too toxic for me.
