These days I'm really annoyed because of a friend. She is my first friend in this new city. At the beginning I feel she is very friendly and always like my elder sister. However, gradually I found she complained about her friends to me every time, and usually about some trivial things. I really don't konw what to say when she chattered. Sometimes I even think maybe she'll complain about me in front of the others. This really bother me.

Well, it just goes to show that some people that you meet can never be your friend for life coz as days go on you learn more about that person then you decide if you still want to be friends with her or not.

yeah.. those kind of friends can be a hassle sometimes.. Is that all the friend talks about? Do you know the people she complains about.. it is really worrisome if she does talk bad about otehr people, since you never know what she does when you're not around.. maybe you could befriend her friends..

try to make her see the side or be in the shoes of the friends she is complaining and observe how she will react. if she's more on finding faults than appreciating her friends then i think you still should treat her as a friend but you need to put some reservation.

So maybe from her complaints about you, you can assess if she is really a true friend or just being friendly when you are with her.
Give her chanced of showing how she can be trusted , so you can determine that, my friend.

Maybe she is just really sensitive to things people do, and thinks that she can trust you. OR maybe she just likes gossip, if gossip is the case you should avoid her.

Perhaps your doubt is right.
If she complains about her friend whom she knows for a longer time compared than you, maybe she does the same thing when she's with her other friends too.
I suggest that you avoid this person- not in the sense that you don't talk with her of you hide from her.
Maybe just try to refrain from saying anything and try to keep a distant as much as possible.

Thanks for posting this discussion. Well i can understand your feelings very well and i know u must be getting irritated while listening to her trash talks. In fact who would like to listen about what is happening in others life. I think u should clearly mention to her that u do not entertain such things in your life and should never talk about anyone in front of u.
What say?

I think you don't have to be bothered if ever she'll do that, as long as you know that you are a true and nice friend to her, there is nothing to worry about. Just believe in Karma if ever she'll do that. :D And I think we can't change her too. I think that kind of trait will remain to her no matter what. So I think you just have to accept it. Anyway, she is just a new friend. You have three options, tell her frankly what you don't like about her, stay away from her or deal with her personality. :)
