Our week-long sailing trip with my boyfriend as the captain on his dad's boat turned into a wild ride thanks to one friend's girlfriend, let's call her "I." Ι'll provide you some context-examples
Right from the start, things got rocky when we tried to choose food at a restaurant. I and her boyfriend, J, had picky tastes, and she created drama out of nothing because she didn't like what the rest of us ordered. She complained about every little thing in general
Mo my boyfriend suggested using outdoor showers for economy in water. She didn't like it and when my boyfriend one day showered inside she looked anrgily at him.
At a barbecue night we shared steaks from a bowl that was in front of her , and I hardly ate until there were just a few left. Then, she accused us of not leaving her any food and devoured the salad by herself
She kept bashing her boyfriend, behind his back and dropping passive aggresive comments a about him in front of us
She wouldn't stop complaining about expenses and she only spent 100 euros for the week
Her boyfriend passed her with a joint that was half smoked but had much to smoke left and she told him "oh now you remembered me" even though she hadn't paid for weed.
When I made breakfast for everyone and they thanked me, she said "I didn't hear you all thanking me for washing the dishes"
Most of us chose to ignore her but my boyfriend, as the captain, couldn't. Her negativity started to rub off on him, and he responded more sharply. One day she alerted my boyfriend to a something 200m away. Her passive-aggressive response: "I won't speak again."
He only was compassionate when she felt nauseous, offering her dry food and comfort.
After thinking it over, I told my boyfriend to chill out a bit in his responses to I. He tried to be less sharp. She also told me she was afraid to ask my boyfriend questions about our plans because she thought he was too strict. Now, we're wondering if we were too hard on her.
Who was at fault here?

Now now now... This is not y'all fault. When someone who wants to be the center of attention like her gets scolded or snapped back at she should not be talking about oh I don't want to talk to your boyfriend because he's too strict. Well if she wasn't being the "pick me girl" or what they call it then she wouldn't have this problem that she says she has. In conclusion, SHE is the one in the wrong. Not your boyfriend, not you. When you do something wrong and someone corrects you for it you don't blame others.
Maybe she had some psychological issues and we should be more caring with her? But at the same time, she was craving so much attention that I personally couldn't approach her with my whole heart
she prob does have something wrong with her but all seriousness I hope she gets better
