What to do with a friend who always wants control?
My friend (I call her that loosely but our kids get on well) always has to be in control of everything and gets annoyed when she isn't. We arranged to meet at a playcentre on Thursday but due to a personal issue I didn't feel I could discuss with her, I ended up cancelling. Bearing in mind this is only the second time I have done it compared to her changing and swapping plans constantly. So we agreed to meet tomorrow and she just phoned and asked to make it another day as she wasn't sure she could make Saturday. I said that wasn't possible as kids are back at school and am very busy and she said she would have to 'Let me know' whether she can make it or not. As I said, this alone isn't a stand alone incident, everything always has to be on her terms. She even called the nursery her DD goes to to tell them the weather didn't look good and maybe they should cancel or make other arrangements.
Is this some kind of condition or is she just a control freak? I have never known anything like it.
