If your True Emotion Mirror is buddy-buddy with a former friend of yours.

This is, granted, a very specific post, but if you pulled it out at random and it answers your dilemma, well. There you go.

Now, I happen to be in this situation myself; my former best friend (compared to other then-available options, not absolutely) is, in spirit, at least, is real buddy-buddy with my True Emotion Mirror. Granted, it annoys me to the moon and back. She involves herself in everything like she was the main wedding planner, when she hasn’t even been invited to the wedding… In fact, there’s no wedding planned… But just to give you an idea. She’s meddling, acting like she’s both welcome, responsible, and asked to… When I truly don’t even want to hear her name anymore for as long as I live. I’d rather forget she exists. Multiple requests for her to mind her own business, she forgets it in a minute, puts a beaming smile on her face, and winds up back in his arm acting all “I love you both so much.”

I don’t want to act jealous, as I know I have nothing to worry about, but her constant involvement and meddling is… Infuriating. Like trying to swat a mosquito out of your wedding suite.

I’ve asked him to ignore her, but she’s so cordial and so “my best friend” that he cannot really.

Men don’t seem to take women’s fighting very seriously, because there are women who fight and makeup like every two days. However, if you’re not the type and your TrEmoR is not really getting the memo or just can’t really do anything, you could try this… Emotionally disconnect from your former friend completely. She is no longer YOUR friend, but your True Emotion Mirror’s. Stop asking her to do something for you because you’re no longer her friend, and she’s not yours. Expecting any favors from her would be dumb, right?

Be indifferent to their friendship because your former friend is in no connection to you anymore, and you’ve got nothing to worry about as far as your True Emotion Mirror goes.

All of a sudden, it becomes HIS problem to deal with your former friend and their friendship.

“I don’t want to be her friend!” my TrEmoR yelped as I tried.

“Well, you have got to tell her yourself, I figure,” I replied.
