My best friend is constantly telling me how one of her "friends" is always making rude remarks and copying her. She's said that she wished her "friend" would just leave her alone. As you can tell my best friend doesn't like this girl, I don't blame her, but something is bothering me. My best friend tells me this stuff and when this girl she supposedly doesn't like does something mean or copies her she tells me she gives her the cold shoulder or something, but always avoids telling her the truth about how she feels so there isn't a huge fight. What bothers me is when she goes out of her way to talk to her, instead of giving her the cold shoulder like she tells me she would do. Or when she and this girl will pass notes and she starts laughing and I'll ask what's funny and she says "oh, just a joke." Or when she asks this girl to sit behind her, and I ask why and she doesn't answer me. Or like once my best friend showed me a message the other girl sent her and it said something like "I don't want us to drift apart, everything is all weird except for in so and so class." Which is the only class they have together that I'm not in. It feels like to me they talk a lot more than my friend is letting me know, and it certainly doesn't look like she's trying to break off a friendship with some one that annoys her. I don't have a problem with their friendship, yea I don't like the girl but if my best friend actually told me she wanted to be this girls friend I'd have no problem. I feel like my best friend isn't telling me the whole truth. Why would she tell me how much she dislikes this person and wants to not be friends anymore but then does the exact opposite when she's around this girl?
I think she doesn't want to be the girl's friend but at the same time she doesn't want to lose a friend. She's indecisive and she probably isn't telling you the whole truth at all. She sounds a lot like she says things behind people's backs normally so I wouldn't be surprised if she was telling the girl the same thing about you when you aren't there. You should really try to figure out if she's really a good person to have as your best friend or not. Confront her about it if you have to, but don't get yourself hurt.
