How to tell my friend this nicely?

Question

My friend is constantly texting me or asking to FaceTime me and its starting to really annoy me. We lost touch for a few years (i had moved away) but I found her on Instagram and we started to talk again. We also had a sleepover a few weeks ago. Anyways I think she's a good friend and all but I feel almost like she's stalking me on IG. Every time I like a pic on there and she sees it she texts me or asks to FaceTime. It's starting to get annoying because I don't want to constantly be texting back and forth. We also don't have that much in common anymore (we don't go to the same school) and whenever we do talk she seems to only want to talk about her new boyfriend.  How can I tell her nicely that I want to still be friends but not be so clingy?

You need to tell her that you've got a life, and other friends, and you don't have enough time to sit around and FaceTime her all day. You might need to tell her that you need some space. If that doesn't work, block her number when you are busy and cannot talk to her, or shut your phone off.

When you talk (on the phone or in general), tell her that you want to hear about other aspects of her life, besides her boyfriend.

Does she have any other friends? If she is overly clingy to you, it may be because you are her only real friend. Try to introduce her to some new people, that may get her to ease up a little bit on you.

Best of luck to you! Just go with your gut, I don't know your friend, so you will have to figure out how to word it so it doesn't hurt her feelings.

You don't have to tell her anything unless she ask you. You don't have to text or reply to any of her messages unless you have something to say. If she ask y don't you facetime me u can say because I don't have anything to say
