[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have 2 friends who I think are bad good friends.

One friend is strangely competitive. I think she has to be the best in the room or she takes small jabs at people. She does this in front and behind their backs. She gets really competitive with her kids as well so I feel she makes everyone feel kind of bad but does it in a very subtle way.

Another friend is an amazing friend if you are sad. If something bad happens to you, she is supportive and a good friend. She doesn’t seem happy for others and finds a way to make you feel bad about your current happy state. She lives out of state so I haven’t seen her since Covid.[/quote]

So their issues are that one is competitive, and one wants people to be unhappy. Those are their issues. What is YOUR issue that makes you friends with “bad good friends” instead of relegating them to acquaintances? What is your issue that you spend your time and energy on people who you call friends but you don’t hold in high regard?[/quote]

The first friend is in my main friend groups. I see her somewhat often. I tolerate her, think she is annoying but have a good time with others.

Second friend is an old friend. We moved to dc ten years ago. She was my bridesmaid. I used to see her every other year or so but we haven’t spoken since Covid. I still send her an Xmas card.[/quote]
