My friend always expects me to jump through hoops for her and take care of her responsibilities because she isnt home. I would take care of her kid and her dog even though I have 3 small children of my own. She has become very offensive to me and my husband thinking that she is better than us which she isnt. No matter what we have or do she tries to out do us which is pointless and childish. She is my neighbor and I have not answered her calls or emails or knocks at the door for a couple of days. She is getting sarcastic and playing childish games to bait me into spending more time with her. Im so mad at her I don't want to talk to her but I dont want to make the neighbors mad at us. She doesnt even ask me to do things for her she tells me and expects me to do it. Im not a doormat nor do I need more responsibility. She thinks because I am a stayat home mom I am not worth anything. Im tired of it any help you can give?

She also reminds me that her life is better than mine and that her family is better than ours. Its not. She has a kid she ignors and doesnt do anything with her family. She has become snotty and rude. I have done everything she asked even watch her kid. The one day her kid was doing something wrong I told her and she told me that her husband says I complain too much. My husband feels no one has the right to judge us because he works and I stay home. Ive already graduated college, had a great career as a Mortician, but my husband feels that our kids will benefit more with a stay at home parent, I agree. Why is she so petty and critical? We are doing fine in every aspect of our life. Is she just a hater because she chose to work or what? Im so mad I can spit nails. She is also a drama queen and likes to play head games, Im so done but dont know how to cut her off without having pissed off neighbors since they live next door.

Tell her everything you just wrote here, can't hurt anymore than it already does. Stay at home parents with small children don't have an excess of time your eyes need to be on your children constantly.

You're off to a good start by not answering the door, phone calls, etc. Why don't you just tell her, calmly, that you do not have time to do tasks for her. Your job as a full-time stay at home mom keeps you very busy. You might also let her know that your feelings have been hurt by the way she addresses you. Put her on the defensive.

tell her. NOW. she cant treat you this way. you have a right to make choices to help her, but you dont have to. you need to talk to her. if she still keeps it up, END THE FRIENDSHIP. if she is treating you like that, when you have other stuff to do, then say its over. she can handle her own responsabilities

Tell her off, put your foot down and time for some new understanding friends babe. Her problem is not yours. Ask her to take a hike.
