I have to agree that she is not really a true friend to you. She is very dismissive and disrespectful of your feelings. She sounds like a horrible person to me. Pawning off a mooch to you, so that you’d spend time with that toxic person instead of her? That is so weird!

There is always a reason when these fair weather friend types become more distant with friends they “use.” She doesn’t sound like she is worth worrying about, especially since she’s not part of your close knit friend group anymore.

I don’t like her attitude towards negative emotions being labeled “drama.” She sounds very superficial and emotionally immature to me. Negative emotions like sadness and anger, frustration and depression, anxiety and worry are part of the human condition. It’s not “starting drama” to set a boundary with someone (per my other thread for example), or to want to tell someone how their actions make you feel. She sounds very silly to me.

She keeps turning down your invitations to hang out, so I would stop asking her to hang out at this point. If she wanted to spend time with you, she wouldn’t make up excuses.

I would stop talking to her altogether and focus on your circle of real friends instead.
