Regarding a grown woman who constantly refers to herself as a "Princess"?

[IcedBirthdayCake]

A few months ago a girl I was at school with added me on Facebook. All well and good, but whenever she updates her status she says things like "I'm a tired Princess today" or "Princess can't wait to go shopping with mummy" or "Poorly Princess". We're both 32 years of age.

Is it me just me or is it fucking bizarre? Today she's posted saying "Five days till my holidays. Excited Princess!"

As far as I'm aware she's not a Princess or in any way affiliated with royalty!

She's always been very, very girly. Has a love of pink and such, but to be honest so are a lot other women I know. They don't go around referring to themselves as Princesses.

I've not hidden her statuses as I far them so ludicrous. She's deadly serious as far I can see.

Does she have some kind of personality disorder?

Wow Evans how extreme.

If we say that then everything hurts somebody so lets not speak, move or communicate at all.

The mind boggles.

If she wants to make herself look dependant that's up to her. As an individual you can only be held responsible by your own behaviour so why don't you show what an independent woman you are instead of judging others.

Perhaps not.

Silly f*ing cow.

Oh yes I do hear this as my precious instead of I'm prolonged.

Fwiw I think it sounds infantile a bit childish but as a grown adult she has the right to post it on Facebook.

I'd either ignore or defriend.

If she is a good friend I'd just ignore as not worth defriending over that. If just an old school friend though, then maybe...

My friends friend on Facebook does this and she's 32. Inward cringe and move on.

I want to be fwends with her. She sounds so wuvverwy.

Love the videos btw.

Cat woman was a scream. actress or not, I howled!

She sounds like a royal pain in the arse

If Princess Woman has a right to express her opinion that she is a princess, then Evan has the right to be hacked off by that and express her opinion that it's damaging.

Freedom cuts both ways.

Urgh! Den from Eastenders would creepily address Sharon as 'Princess' . Even worse when it's used patronisingly to infer a handicap, by simply being in possession of ovaries.

A few more things about Princess:

She has no children yet
She doesn't have a little lapdog, but she does have an expensive looking pedigree cat that she refers to as her "baby".
She appears to have a job and lives independently of her parents.
She often posts pouting selfies, she's a gym bunny type and they are usually showing off her "ripped abs". Admittedly she does look good.

She doesn't seem like an unpleasant person as such, but I just find the "Princess" really,reallyodd.

I have somebody on my facebook like this loves her dh for treating her like a princess it is bleurgh and so twee I

ANOTHER one I had to de friend though referred to her car as princess mobile she was so inlove with herself it drove me insane im all for confidence but she put a photo of herself on fb on her 40th birthday half dressed with yummy mummy

A friend of a friend divorced her husband a couple of years ago. Since then she's had extensive surgery, lost weight, glamourised herself to the max and now participates in the most hilariously tacky beauty pageants for the over forties.

Facebook snooping on her is a bit of a guilty pleasure I must admit.

She isn't that dreadful woman who participated in 'Come Dine with Me' is she; the one who constantly referred to herself as a princess and got thrown out of somebody's caravan for insulting him and his family?

Pwincess is a dick.

That is all.

If Princess Woman has a right to express her opinion that she is a princess, then Evan has the right to be hacked off by that and express her opinion that it's damaging.
Freedom cuts both ways.

Thank you, Adam

Most welcome

I hate it when women say they're going out with 'the girls'. You're 80 for Christsakes!
My ex MIL was a very large lady and often used to say ''I've just washed my smalls'' how can anything covering your big fat ass be called small?
So she would wash her smalls, go out with the girls and then say that everything was FAB!
What's with the fab word every other sentence stuck in a 60's time warp.
But she never referred to herself as Princess. That is seriously weird.

I feel as if I've come of age on Mumsnet. I've just written a post criticizing my MIL. [SHOCK]

OP, I'm surprised she didn't say only 5 more SLEEPS till Princess's holiday.

Who cares. I refer to my school friends as 'the girls' and will continue to do so.

Surely there's some good material here for one of those voyeuristic and weird Channel 4 documentaries! I'd watch it, just for the whole OMG factor.

creepy, creepy, creepy.

The 3rd person thing almost annoys me more than the princess thing though.

Anyone remember the days when fb stati (statuses?) all had to start with 'name is ...' forcing you to write about yourself in the 3rd person? (eg 'name is sure she should have got up and done her essay before noon today')

Manic, a lot of Princess's friends still do that. Some of them are young enough that they should know better.

She sounds a lot better than a woman I know who's husband bought her a 'title' for £30 off the internet as a joke.

She actually 'uses' it. Lady Something or Other of Some Unknown Scottish Glen on her business cards and insists on having it on invites and name cards at weddings and signs off Xmas and birthday cards with Mark and Lady 'Louise'

Now she is a bloody knob!

Adrian Mole had a funny line about the hand flapping crying, something about his mother doing it because she learned it from X factor (but funnier in Sue Townsend's words obv)
