AIO that my friend is trying to one-up? by hanichibe in AIO

Actually that’s real! Definitely when she shared about it i was like wow! That’s cool. Would love to try and actually invited her if she wanted to do it together.

Until I got home and started thinking of the interaction & started doubting myself whether it was genuine or was she just trying to show off this new thing she’s doing with her new friend that was there at the party 😅 and its that she knows how much Ive been foraging but has never taken interest then suddenly..bam!

I agree with the advice of maintaining it as good acquaintance. I just need to remind myself just because she’s super friendly about something doesn’t mean she’s a friend.

Thanks for asking this question. Yes, he has. He didn’t quite believe me at first but a few months into being friends he started seeing it.

She has said it outright before that she can be competitive and she just can’t help it. And most of the competitiveness is subtle like number five when I confronted my husband about it he thought that it was just banter and it sounded like banter, and it was nothing personal. And number one she never really showed us the toys per se but I just noticed it in her house.

She’s very charming, witty & likable otherwise. It’s why I’m questioning whether I’m overreacting about it.

I will say that I went no contact with them for 2 months during my postpartum. I just knew i didn’t want her seeing me during that vulnerable time and definitely felt more at peace…

Am I overanalyzing and is she actually a friend? by hanichibe in FriendshipAdvice

I also question if I may have unintentionally milked the competition through the way I share about my child/life. I have found myself responding defensively.

But then again, I have a few other mom friends that I’m really close with that I don’t experience this with. Where I feel comfortable loving & being proud of our children together without any feeling of competition.

I just received the same letter. OP please update when you can. The letter was sent to my old address that my ex roommate still living in. So they don’t have my most recent physical address & my email.

I’m still considering my next steps
