I am not a very social person, but there is this woman who is getting on my nerves. Everything is great when we are alone, no other people around. Then she turns into a big fake, faking a British accent, talking about her trips around the world, treating other people like disposable goods for her own use. She insists on calling me even when I NEVER return her emails or phone calls, especially after she found out that I am moving overseas where her and her husband 'will come and visit because they always wanted to see there'. She is incredibly fake and only interested in what I can offer - please help, I have tried avoiding her without being rude but nothing has worked so far, what do I do? My husband also loathes her fakeness, especially after she told us she only has friends who can 'offer' her something.

just avoid giving her favours - eventually she'll get the hint

You know you can be direct without being rude don't you? Tell her that you believe a friendship, a true one, is a two-way street. Tell her her phonyness is old and maybe that you feel you are being used, or that she should look at what she has to offer. I've had a couple of friendships that were like that, and it does hurt to have to say that to someone, but if she's only looking for people to give to her, she's not really going to care. It will hurt you to say it more than it will for her to hear it. You're obviously hurting yourself more by NOT saying anything. You're also being fake by letting it continue although it bothers you. Good luck.

Maybe this women can't help herself, but you should tell her, strait up, that she needs to leave you alone, that you think that she is fake and act's like a freak when people get around.
Tell her the truth and then tell her, that you do not want to hang out with her anymore. Might be hard, but you need to tell her everything and then tell her what you want and be rude if you have to.
Good luck...
