ok i have a friend that I’ve known since I was in elementary school. we’ve been best friends pretty much since the beginning and always hang out together. shes always been bossy and sometimes can be mean but i don’t like confrontation and im easy going so i usually just go along with it or let it go or don’t say anything. but it seems like lately it’s getting worse. one thing she does is brags about how many new friends she has. she made a bunch of new friends recently and they’re all artsy “cool” people and im happy for her but one time i asked if she wanted to invite any of them to hang out with us and she basically said we wouldn’t get along. when i asked why not she basically said because im boring and awkward which really hurt my feelings but i just tried to shrug it off and laughed about it. but i didn’t actually think it was funny just mean. she also keep calling me lame and making it sound like I’m not fun to be around since she started hanging out with these people but at the same time she still asks me to hang out a lot which is confusing. if i don’t want to do the things she wants to do (like one time i didn’t want to do a drug she wanted me to do because I don’t do that stuff) she tried to basically say i was being boring and kept pushing it but I told her I didn’t want to. eventually she gave up but she was really mad about it and ended up just going home instead of spending the night like she was going to.

how do i tell her that it hurts my feelings when she acts this way toward me? before she met these people she was very different and I don’t have any other friends so I don’t want to lose her as a friend but it also sucks to keep having to brush it off like nothing
