Bev is the worst to make an enemy of in my opinion. Bev is all smiles and nice as pie to your face, talking to you in that singy songy 'oh aren't you lovely' type voice whilst insincerely patting your arm and at the first opportunity will grass you up to your boss/best friend/partner. Then when called upon does the miss piggy 'who me???' and acts the victim to all who will listen. This one is worse than a Wendy as she will turn on the waterworks to make you look evil ð??¿ð??¿ð??¿

I thought it was a bee typo too Grin

I know a couple of people who use crying as a manipulative tool, 'you'll regret it if you dare to say anything you know I won't like'. There's nothing wrong with someone crying because they're genuinely upset at the way they've been treated, but the times would be few and far between wouldn't they? (unless they're having a hard time generally) Not just cropping up in similar situations.

If she bevs everyone then at least you're not on your own and it doesn't look to everyone else as though it's you being awkward.

Is there anyone who actually plays along with her? Either for their own ends (trying to side step her focusing on them) or because they genuinely can't see through it?

I have no patience for people that cry to ramp up the sympathy because I feel awkward around crying people. If you're genuinely upset, go ahead. But, don't cry because you're not getting your way or getting people on your side.

I generally don't have people come up crying to me. Probably because I don't treat it as much more than a person venting and assume they'll do something about it if it bugs them so much.

I do offer some good chocolate for upset friends though. :)
