Old Friend Vent

I have an old friend who still drives me crazy. We are no longer in touch but I keep up running into her on various web/chat boards as well as I occasionally scan her blog. She thinks she can do no wrong, nor can her 'precious, perfect' children. It drives me bonkers. Her kids are annoying (as I know and readily admit mine can be) and nobody has the balls to tell her because she'll only make it into an argument that you can't win. It doesn't matter how well my kids are doing, her's are always a step ahead of them...socially, academically, physically etc. I haven't spoken to her in quite some time but alot of people who know her still contact me...they all think she's a pain in the ass. Why did it take me so long to see it...even my family told me they thought she was an overbearing, needy friend. I guess I always look for the best in people. I felt sorry for this person initially because nobody could stand her...look where it got me...nowhere. I just had to vent because she's on my mind lately. this post is more for my mental wellbeing than anything else. So if you read this and run into my dear old friend, please don't tell her I said hi.

Ps she's so self absorbed that she'll know this post is about her if she reads it!!!
