writes: my good friend is a good friend, we are very different, shes louder and a smart ass, im quieter, but we get along. But..she is so self absorbed! with most ppl she talks with. She has had a career where she has performed now her career is slowly winding down due to some health issues, she only teaches dance now, part time. Because she was very good at what she did/does,she has developed an ego and the conversation always end up somehow, no matter what is discussed or with who about her! the guys shes dated,how even now years after breaking up some still text her sometimes for phone sex, how its crap that she single now, her health, her family issues,how fat she is, she doesn't eat much.etc etc she does listen sometimes and i/others tell her to shut up/let me/us speak, and this works sometimes, but its so frustrating! just once id (and im sure others) would like to say "god not everything is about you, yr guys, how you don't eat and yr life" she cares about others a lot but doesn't show it and rarely ever gives a compliment, instead acting like shes on stage and giving smart ass/witty comments which ppl love?!, what do i/we do? how to deal with the smart ass? be smart back? how? thanks

Your friend is terribly insecure, no doubt from something in her past that makes her feel the need to blow herself so much. I would sit down with her and find out why she's so insecure.

It seems to me ur friend in very insecure. Blowing herself up around ppl validates herself . I'd sit her down and havr a heart to heart. If she's a true friend maybe she won't get offended. Good Luck.
