'Cos I just realized the person in question doesn't have my Gaia. (And if you read this, Bes, please don't tell her.)
Warning: Long and ranty. A little angsty, too.
So. I met this girl in sixth grade, and we were friends pretty much immediately. By some freak chance, her big sister is good friends with my big sister. Should be no problem, right?
Well, she and her sister have this huge sibling rivalry thing, and I love my sis. I like her sister, too. (Hi, Bes. Yes, you're cool.) Still, it ought to be possible to work around that. But. She tends to blow up at Nee-chan for nothing, and say irrational things. We got into a big fight a while back 'cos she posted some nasty stuff on Nee-chan's Xanga, but she kinda guilted me into apologizing. (It's easier to do that than it should be. I apologise too much anyway.) She would try and turn me against another friend of mine by pointing it out every time she didn't eat lunch with us, and saying "Oh, I wonder if she's with her other friends?". And I forgave her for all that.
But I have another friend,R---, who I met recently, and suddenly every change in my personality is because of her. I like black, which I have for years but neve mentioned? "You've been hanging out with R--- too much" I swear occasionally and mildly? "You've been hanging out with R--- too much" And all of this I still forgave, though things were stretching a bit thin.
And then I hear through Nee-chan that she told her sister that I "swear like a sailor" now. I know that's not entirely so big of a thing, but I've just snapped. I haven't said anything about it to her, 'cos I don't want to flip out at her, but I am so freaking angry. I stopped biking to school with her. When I called yesterday to say I couldn't bike with her that morning, she hung up on me.
And then, at school, she goes and asks R--- if I'm angry at her. I mean, what am I supposed to say?

Look at it from a different angle if you're confused.

I dunno what to do. *sigh* Fine, I won't tell her, but it'd be so hard to remember. . .
Oh, did she hang up on you? She always says you hung up on her. . . hah, maybe the line terminated by itself or something. . .
I've been trying to get Sissyhead to play Gaia since forever. I think she has an account (Turtleshell or something) but she never uses it. . .
She does get too sucked up into the whole popularity contest thing in my opinion, which is one of the reasons why I really don't like her too much.
What is the deal with R, anyway? I mean, she's just another friend, albeit another coincidentally also sibling of someone we know. I'm just really, really confused.
Maybe it's the whole Erin thing that happened, and now she thinks all friends that don't dote on her hate her? I dunno. *shrug* This is more something that you guys'd work out better than me, I feel really hopeless in this situation. . .
