To drop an annoying 'friend'?

[HGsells]

Hello there. one of DD1 playgroup friends was pregnant around the same time as me. I've seen her a few times for baby lunches and everytime I see her and her son they terrify me. We were at a playcentre and she was being very derrogatory about the other mum's and her son was hitting the other kids there including my own.

Not seen her for a few months, she texts now and again about possibly meeting up but really want to avoid it. Thankfully not seen her at playgroup as I'm back at work.

She is on my Facebook and after this rather rambly note, should I block her? She is constantly on there and her rants/updates just depress me...

Please tell me I'm doing the right thing getting rid! Thanks

Thanks Beertricks, how do I hide her?

I think I will bite the bullet and block her, just hope I dont bump into her and her delightful son.

Anyone else have a nightmare situation with an annoying mum?

YABU - you met her and had baby lunches with her and now you are FRIENDS and you must spend time with her forever, even though, as you get to know her, it's clear that not only do you not like her, but actually you are afraid of her.

Sorry I'm being silly OP but I hope you can see that you don't have to be friends with people you don't like. Delete her from FB & just avoid her. If she trays to make dates say you have other arrangements etc & swerve it (if you don't want to be direct) - she'll soon get the message.

just weed your social garden and get rid of her. once ou have kids you have so much less time in general surely you dont want to spend what precious time you have with DD with a person who you dont actually have anything in common with. Some people on FB have 500 plus friends... no one can have this many in real like and so if she is one of those friend gatherers then I doubt she will even notice if you delete here. If she has 50 then obv she will notice more so just hide her posts as suggested and just avoid her for a bit! Its hard when you meet people when you are pregnant as although it is assumed you will all "get along" potentially the only thing you have in common is that you had sex round about the same time!! I have made friends with a mum who it later transpired we had nothing in common with and gradually we have just lost touch which I am fine with. Dont feel guilty.

Thanks guys, feeling bit hormonal today and know it is perfectly rational to get rid!
