People that are hard to deal with

Tweet

I have this one friend whom everyone find hard to deal with. She's my college classmate and we became very close friend upto now. However, she became too attached to me that she already dumped her friends and forget her family relatives at some point. Her attachment to me made it impossible for me to talk to her the way we used to. We usually argue about how she treats her friends, relatives and work mates. Also I dislike how she converse with other people. She's authoritative and doesn't listen to other comments and suggestions. Most of our common friends keeps on asking me how can I able to manage to deal with her despite of her being so harsh and rude most of the time. My answer most of the time is, because I put my feet on her shoes. Though she's hard to deal with, it will be impossible for her to change if everyone will turn their backs on her. I'm willing to be that person who could stay with her despite of her attitude. Lately, I find it difficult to have a discussion or conversation with her, because it seems like all my words are knife trying to slash her side by side. I felt sorry for that. But I don't regret saying those words just to correct her. I hope not to lose all my patience. Have you experience the same? or do you have that one person whom you think is so hard to deal with? What advise can you give me in order for me not to lose my faith and patience?
