I don't want to be this girls friend anymore!?

There is this girl I met a couple months ago and she's so clingy! She keeps saying she's my best friend, but she's not, I have other best friends! I barely know her and I have to pretend that I like her because I can't get the nerve to be mean enough to say that I don't want to be her friend! All my friends keep saying she's obsessed with me, and I can't see why considering I'm venting to strangers on the internet. She lies a lot and I really really dislike her! One of my friends dated her as a joke, which I thought was REALLY MEAN, but now she's all clingy and in love with him and can't stop talking about him. This girl is also a couple years younger than me and I am generally a nice person, so I don't have the nerve to tell her I don't want to be her friend. But I tried it once before and she tried making me feel bad for her, but it didn't work. I just need to know something simple to say to get her off my back for good!

Thank You in advance!

PS..was I being too mean up there? I kind of lost it, sorry.

Update:

I can tell she's jealous of my other friends because she tells me not to hang out with them or talk to them

Update 2:

She also threatens to kill herself if I left her. Which scares the heck out of me, because I don't want to be responsible for the death of a kid. But I can't take her!! Pleaseeee helppp

    man...that sucks. I would say you need to be straight forward in a nice way. just tell her you like her but can't hang out as much as she wants to. that you need your space and don't want to spend all of your time with one person. somethin like that. I would hint further like say...but hey maybe in couple months we can catch up...lol and smile and walk off...I know it seems harsh but it is appropriate if you don't think someone will be a good friend. but don't burn any bridges. friends are good to have even if they are dorks. lol good luck...

    Just tell her.. Since she is being way to clingy. Personally I think it was very mean of you to post this on here what if she saw it. Maybe she doesn't want to be your friend for other reasons. Oh and your lying for not telling her this. Girl think before you tell people your secrets.

    I think you need to tell her in a nice way that she's a bit needy and needs to find other things to do and get involved with. It sounds like she may have a bit of depression which makes people "clingy" to anyone who will listen to her woes. If it's depression it's beyond her control but making her "aware" of it may encourage to seek help for it.
