We’ve kept in touch,but our phone conversations and twiceayear visits became opportunities for my friend to talk endlessly about her problems.When I tried to fill her in on my own life,she obviously ignored.
In the past few years I’ve not visited her at all and been afraid of her occasional phone calls and visits to my house.She invites herself now because I no longer invite her.When she’s at my home,she literally follows me from room to room,talking nonstop,until I make an excuse to get away from her.I tell her I need to take a nap,but I don’t sleep.I sit in my room and read or enjoy the quiet.
Here’s the worst part.She and her family,including two young children,are moving to our city.Her family has a small income,and they are buying a house in a grand neighborhood they can’t afford.She asked if she and her husband and her children could stay at my home on their trips to our town to deal with house matters.
My husband and I have no children.Even though our home is tiny and perfectly sized for us,I let them stay.She told me her husband would start his new job before they finished purchasing this house.I felt obligated to offer her our guest room.If I hadn’t offered,she would have asked anyway.
Now he’s here,and it turns out he’ll be staying on through the weekends.I am seething.
I would never under any circumstances impose (把……强加于) on a friendship this way.I feel used,resentful,and don’t care if I ever see her again.Should I end this friendship?I’m getting absolutely nothing from it but a knot in my stomach.
