Why do drama queens seem to have a lot of friends?
Why do drama queens, that like to gossip and "stir the pot" seem to have a lot of friends? It seems to me that most people should try to avoid these personality types. It is due to the fact that it is very bad for their relationships with other people. Yet they seem to have a lot of friends. Why?

Hmmm.. a Gossipping Drama Queen.. perhaps she has fewer "friends" than it appears.. people will be close to her so that she will not be mean to them.. unless she gets mad at them and then she will totally dump on them until they leave...
In Middle School, everyone wants everyone to like them.. so things are a bit strange...
In High School people still want everyone to think they are part of "the in crowd"...
Eventually people grow up and realize that Gossipping Drama Queens are really bullies in disguise.

Drama queens may seem to have many friends but they don't due to the fact that they only care about themselves. People are only their friends since they think that they are cool and have power over others by spreading rumors about them. So what look like their friends really aren't.

Drama queens opt for solid acquaintances so that they have got someone to "sparkling out on" and someone who's prepared to take heed to. in addition they opt for solid advice and help! Gossipers actually have acquaintances oftentimes because they're aslo gossipers and thats how they get their "recent information". they'd also be acquaintances with the gossiper so that they wont have rumors about themselves and so that they wont be backstabbed.

I guess it's because of the fact that they are drama queens only to certin people and then they act normally in front of others. It is lame that they're popular when they don't deserve it.

It is a subconscious practice of keeping your friends close and your enemies closer. People remain friends with them so they can stay in their good graces. They think that if they stay friends with that person that she won't talk bad about them, only everyone else.
You can bet that if you have a friend that is talking about another supposed friend to you, they are doing the same thing when they are with the other "friend" but this time about you.
