But since I've known her since college, I also know her to be VERY insecure. So I believe that this is her way of overcompensating, by acting like a know-it-all.

I owe her a call next weekend, and I have to admit, I'm not really looking forward to it. I am not going to reveal any details of my life that invite her to tell me what to do or educate me.
Interesting point you brought up here. Some people who show themselves very controlled have a great level of insecurity behind.
