These are the four types of girlfriends you should avoid
You choose your friends, you don't choose your family. That's why you better carefully decide who you associate with and in which friendships you want to invest. Of course, it takes time to get to know someone before you label her as your friend, and you can never predict the future. Still, there are a number of red flags to watch out for when you decide to become friends with someone. The following types are ones you should definitely avoid.
1. The drama queen
The drama queen is obviously a star at causing drama and embellishing stories. This may seem very entertaining at first glance, but unfortunately, this entertainment is often short-lived. Soon you will find out that the drama queen is actually only interested in her own life. Eventually, it becomes deadly exhausting to deal with the self-absorbed drama queen. Avoid the drama and keep her at a distance, much more peaceful.
2. The gossip queen
The gossip queen knows almost everything about everyone. This makes it hard to resist her as a friend, because let's be honest: she always has something interesting to say. However, it's better not to get involved with her. Why? Because gossip always comes at the expense of others. Of course, we all gossip sometimes, but when you are around someone who always has something to say about others (and even about people you like), you might want to ask yourself what she is saying about you to other people. In short: the gossip queen is not trustworthy and therefore not high-quality friend material.
3. Miss ‘I’
The stories of this friend always start with ‘I’, because she is mainly focused on herself. Even if she doesn't do this intentionally, she simply never asks about your day or how you are doing. She must and would play the lead role in every story, which makes the conversations quite one-sided and extremely boring. After a while, you realize that this friend cares very little about you or your life. So you get nothing from such a friend.
4. The bossy one
I label this friend as the bossy one because she is all too eager to outdo everything you do and loves to make others feel ‘less’ by pointing out how their lives are better in every way. You happily share about your raise of three hundred a month, to which she casually informs you that she earned more as a starter. You are on vacation in a lovely four-star hotel, but according to her, that's nothing compared to the five-star hotel she is staying in. You are satisfied with your new phone, but she has the latest model with a better camera. Okay, you get my point. The bossy one constantly plays power games to feel better about herself, so stay away from her.
