Just lay down the law on them

She's pretty much forcing me to. I told her months ago, when I transferred out of that store, that I did NOT want to hear the drama, there was nothing I could do about it and her telling me puts ME in a bad spot. And she just keeps creating drama..ugh. Doesn't help that she's not the brightest and takes everything as a personal attack.

Hmmm....I think I may have dated her once.

and some people are just magnets for it

You're only a magnet if you choose to be.

doubt it..if so, I'm sorry. Probably just another female like her

That's very true. I try to be a good friend. I try to be a good listener. But when I'm always receiving more drama then my life creates, there's something wrong there.

doubt it? What are you trying to say J/k

The best thing for drama magnets is to avoid them any way you can.

yep, that's pretty much where I'm at now. I know she's losing other friends over this and she's gonna end up getting fired if she doesn't watch it. She was a manager and was pretty much forced to step down over this stupid stuff

Right now, my magnet is my bed. I gotta get up way too early so I'm outta here.

Lj, this is for the next time you talk to your "friend".

I am a good friend and a good listener(to my friends), but I have a line I've drawn and I won't let friends cross it.

I will tell my friends when I've had enough of their blabbering. I've lost some friends over it(probably for the best) and others have understood.

I guess I should also add that it almost always has something to do with a relationship they are in...I'll always listen at first, but if they want to keep *****ing to me about something, but fail to listen to my advice, they are no longer allowed to talk to me about it.

Grooming salon. Just as bad as a hair salon for drama

 

[irishfan]

Take her out and get her a man at the bar. Who knows maybe the drama will stop or at least it will stop going toward you

Grooming salon? Ok I have learned something new today.

And I'm drawing that line. If someone just needs to vent, ok, vent. But when she's telling me stuff I'm not supposed to know, that her bosses don't know, that puts me in a bad spot professionally and I don't need that. IMO, a real friend wouldn't put me in that spot. Repeatedly. She's never complained about her marriage, just work always. I think people around me have been hesitant to complain about their relationships

it's always educational when I'm around

It is something for sure

I've never met an ugly woman at a bar.

yep, that's exactly why I said that
