My best friend is using me for?
everything. I don't know if i should confront her or ignore things. I feel like she's taking advantage of me because of several things like she asked to borrow my video game for a party, but I was not invited to the party.
She always uses my things, grabs things from my house, ect but I can never seem to borrow her things. She talks to me about her problems all the time, but when it comes to me she doesn't listen, or turns it to her problems.
I'm not good at confronting people, so if you would confront someone how would you go about it?
It's hard though because we've been friends since like 1st grade, and she's always been like this, but lately it's been a lot worse. I don't know how I would be able to just cut out someone who I've been close with since forever, but I don't think its right that the relationship is all about her. She does have good qualities of course not completely bashing her.

She isn't a friend to you at all. It is a give and take thing. You give, she takes. You are just a convenience to her and she is really a *****.
Tell her you are busy if she calls, and hang up. If she text don't answer. She comes over don't allow her to enter and then that is when you have to tell her that she has finally used you all up and you have no more she can take. Not your things, your friendship, nor your time.
Then shut and lock your door.

She's nor a real friend from what it looks like, it looks like a one sided relationship a give and take. A true friendship takes two both sides should be able to give and take equally. when confronting her approach her in a calm matter, maybe ask her to meet you somewhere where start off by saying I wanted to talk to you about how I feel Im not trying to hurt your feelings in any way i apologize in advance if you start to feel that way. Tell her how you feel make sure you explain the things she would do and how it would make you feel. Start it off by saying i feel that sometimes when...... Etc good luck think this through and that you'll have an explanation behind each of your reasons. Try to stay calm no matter what happens you needed to address this you couldn't bottle this in. it wqs either keep your mouth shut and take all of it and just sit there or try to fix the problem say how you feel cause you deserve better.

wow you have an awful friend that is very self centered.
what i sugest is that the next time she ask something from you, wants to talk to you. or something just ignore her or say no, or ask her to not bother you or get anything of yours. if she asks why then simply tell her what you wrote here. or if you can't do that then email it or text it to her. that way when she confronts you about it you can simply say that everything you wrote is true and if she doesnt change than you can no longer be or would want to be friends with her.

Something like this happened to me in high school. I moved on with new friends and stopped talking to the person. Now I am in college and it is all a thing of the past and I do not talk to that person anymore.

She's not your "friend" she's using you for your things I had someone who did that to me once too, I stopped talking to them, ignored all their phone calls and never gave them another thing ever again.

Stop doing the favours she asks and dont talk to her. It will get her attention, and if not she is not a true friend. If anything, smack a hoe.
