I mean were still best friends, but she doesnt act like it. I think it all statred in the end of secenth grade when she started dating a sixteen year old guy. Then this year he broke up with her three times, and each time she made me feel bad because she took it out on me. Ever sonce he dumped her the first time shes been acting wierd, and not just scifi wierd, but like mean wierd. She acts like she knows everything about feeling and love and emotion just because she has a boyfriend whos broken up with her three times and she stupidly took him back each time. Now its like she wants to control me and my feelings and emotions.. She said to me one time, "Girl, you need to stop liking him!" Why, I asked. "Because eventually youll make a big mistake that you cant tak back!" I told her no, that Id stop liking him when my feelings for said guy left me, which they still havent, and she still tries to control how i feel about things and people... Please help!!

So basically, Autumn is trying to tell you what to do when it comes to your love life? Is that the problem here?
Just because Autumn dated a too old 16 year old doesn't mean she's a relationship expert. You guys are 13-15 for pete's sake, you 2 have got A LOT to learn about boys. So no it's not right for her to try to tell you who to like. It's also not nice of you to throw her failed, short lived relationship in her face.
Now, the next time she tries to correct your love life, you tell her she's not your mother, she's your best friend, so you cannot tell you who you can and cannot like. Also, if she's your best friend, she should support you in your thoughts and feelings not try to rain on them! If she doesn't cut the crap, then I would stop speaking to her until she can get her act together.
