Dear Jellybean,

so i have this friend, megan, whom i have known since maybe seventh grade. last summer, we did an intense summer program that kind of forced us to become really close, even though that was one of the only things we had in common. after that ended, i thought everything was ok. we became really close friends for some reason, and i became her wing man. basically, she needed me to need her for things. she needed me to be dependent on her. now megan is a naturally aggressive and pretty mean person; she does have some good traits but she can be really mean to people to their faces for no reason other than so she can feel superior to everyone else. i am Not exaggerating when i say she draws you in...i stood by last fall and winter watching her hurt people i care about, which i know was wrong. after christmas break, I realized that she wasnt a nice person, and it became veryy unhealthy for me to be friends with her. needless to say, when i started pulling away she became brutal, especially towards me. she'd talk about me behind my back and act very immaturally. our lives cross too much to completely cut her out of my life, but i dont want to be bff's with her- i wouldnt mind saying hi if i sa her but i only want to be somewhere beetween friends and aquaintances. shes starting to get the point but i need to know how to distance myself from this veryy clingy girl while still having us on "acceptable terms" aka: not fighting! oh and i have tried confronting her, trust me its no good. oh and i am having a birthday party at the end of the month, and i dont really wanna invite her but my friend thinks i should i just really sont want to. is it really wrong of me not to invite her if we are "aquaintances"
