:evil: I am so upset, I am tired of my friends acting like drama queen. What bothers me the most, if one is upset or asking me something i wont answer, my other friends bother me about it, I know the person told them to ask me and everything is just like a soap opera......I wish I could put them all on block cuz I am so tired of it but I dont want to lose my friends. I dont tell them everything and I make lots of new friends they dont know about and I put away message alot so they cant bother me but still they try to talk to me and call me.........I dont have the time or energy to deal with this...
i just say i am busy a lot........
 
I hate drama queens too, and people who moan about negative things all the time. I have put some people on block before, as a few of you ADers members know! heh heh... seriously, I listen and try to help them solve the problem, and if they are too preoccupied about it and wont stop talking about it, I just say I can't help them anymore and try to change the subject.
 
oh yeah, I hate those type of people are like that.... I'll just simply block them or ignore them that's all I can do.
 
If someone bitches or moans about negative stuff, and I ask to please stop.. but this person keeps going..I'll put this person on block INSTANTLY..I dont need to deal with that.. all that negative thinking, and wasting my breath telling this person not to think negative and tried to give advices..it just seems like a waste of my time.
 
The most important thing in friendship is COMMUNICATION. It is key to solve all problems so you can make compromises or tackle down those difficulties.
 
:ugh: drama queens!!!!!!! i cant stand them either -- have had dealt with a few ppl who are drama queens gosh -- but yea i agree with Teekie and other ppl -- theyre put on block once and for all -- that works real nicely for me :D
 
Same me too most of those drama queens are in chatrooms, but now i pretty much don't talk to alot of people cuz drama and plms don t clash, if an information is needed then i would send e mail, it also works nicely, cuz they don t have to reply, just so they know they were mentioned in another form or backstabbing of sorts. Shows respect, other than that i leave them be, i got my grrl and some friends too, that's pretty much it, im too busy to be talking abt little things in my life when it doesn't amount to conversations. A wise person pretty much taught me that and she knows who she is :)
I learned alot abt myself when i was on the block from someone and it pretty much woke me up, and said oh great moi a drama queen so i let OLD things go by and new things like information and passing along and if the names were mention they have to be told im not abt to betray or talk shit to others abt them, with minor exception to a certain two bitches i know of, other than that ( not its not the three gals don't worry not u guys) a certain EX of an ADer and MY Ex as well they just look for trouble, and backstabbing is intoloerable to me, so ofc i gotta let them know thier being mentioned in a cruel way. SO in other issues i let it go :) not need worry :) life's to short to dwell, baby phat just block them if they keep bothering u, they ll get the hint somehow!
 
I'm not crazy about drama queens, neither...

I think I'm pretty humble and mellow that sometimes "drama queens" tend to mellow down around me. I just don't "feed" them anything that would make them freak out or whatever....

If I had to deal with them my AIM (actually the last "drama queen" that I have dealed with was my Ex-Boyfriend and his sister.. migawd), I would just simply say "Hey, I'm sorry, I told you the truth before and I don't need to repeat it..." or "Look, I wish I could tell you what's up, but really I don't know" and usually, if I'm lucky, they calm down.

I just be careful with what I say, and be calm, patient, and don't "feed" them anything... for example, if I had to leave to do something and my "drama queen" friend wants to keep the conversation going -- I say "Sorry but I am preoccupied, can we talk about it another time?" and actually leave instead of giving them five more minutes, which would turn into another half hour and so.. lol (Babyphat.... tsk.. that's what I would have done... hehe)

:Oops: yeah i am so bad, I keep giving my friends "5 more minutes" but it's never 5 minutes.......But I keep hoping.....
 
give them good 'ol "i dunno" response or say that you plead the fifth and change the subject :dunno:

as for time for your friends... if you feel that way maybe you should reconsider choosing different group of friends thats more laidbacked and mellowed out and balance it out with your new and old friends? that way you wont feel like a total loss?
 
I have a friend who's a bit of a drama queen when it comes to her mental illness -- she has schnizophrenia and multiple personalities, I have been patiently putting up with her moaning and anxiety-ridden questions on how to improvise things around her and in her life in general. I don't blame her at all because she cannot help it with her mental illness and she does need a sounding board somewhere and in someone which is me.
All in all, I'm a big softie so I can't really put her or anyone who's a drama queen on block because I like helping people out whenever possible. I also do care for her as well as I've known her since middle school which is about 15+ years. She also doesn't have that many friends who aren't as understanding and sympathetic about her mental illness.
 
I have experiences with dramatic people in years. I simply nod and politely leave. Some of them don't know where I live, so I am not worried about. Smiles.

I can't get bothered online because I set up security on my account, so I am not worried. I need some peace and mind.
