[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nothing wrong with a white lie if you really want to stop the gossip/drama cycle with her. You saying you have secrets you don't want to share with her sounds like some coy teasing ploy to invite her to pry more or make a drama out of it (which she did). Better to say "no, there's nothing to share."[/quote]

Omg finally. This was my exact thought from the moment of the post.
If you don’t want her in your business, then don’t indicate there is a problem.
She thinks you are friends
And you haven’t indicated that you feel differently about that. So the normal thing for a friend to do when she sees that her friend is hurting is to say “hey—what’s going on with you lately?”
If you don’t want to tell her then you minimize and say “oh nothing…I guess I’ve just been a little under the weather lately but Im sure it’ll pass”
That’s it.
You don’t go in and in about how you have this big thing going on in your life that you aren’t ready to talk about.
That’s tantalizing drama. Unnecessary.[/quote]
