To think my friend is a hypocrite ,a absolute hypocrite ?

[mammamia345]

We are in tier 4.
She lives with her mum.
She has been getting into her ex boyfriends car and having him driving her to the supermarket.
She's allowing her sister in the house (who has been seeing her boyfriend ) and her cousin (who has been seeing her boyfriend)
And obviously these boyfriends have been seeing family /going to work.
Today another friend dropped off her kitten at my house (I live alone ) to watch for a week whilst she gets work done to her house.
I told this friend about this and her reply
"You do realise we are in tier 4,your friend will have been touching the kitten and she isn't the cleanest person is she,well il be avoiding you if I see you in the street "
So I mentioned all the rule breaking she's been doing and she says it's ok as she "anti bacs"
I told her a few home truths how she bends the rules to suit herself etc
She ended up telling me to F off
How on earth can she say anything ?

Sigh. Isn’t anyone bored of the covid police?

This isn't about the covid police
This is about a friend who is a hypocrite

Everyone seems to be like that. Only seeing what others do ‘wrong’.

Well done for calling her out. She's not your friend, you can't anti bac a kitten, I think she's sore about you doing a favour for your other friend.
Cut this person out of your life, she sounds horrible.

Perhaps this person should be a former friend and the police be aware of her irresponsible behaviour.

No actually I'm not.

If my husband has a crash on the way to work I'd quite like him to be able to be treated in hospital and hope it isn't full with Covid patients, ours is almost at capacity.

This is everyone's business so well done Op on calling her out on it.

Yup, she's a massive hypocrite and deserved it pointing out.

She sounds thick as mince. If she thinks that a bit of hygiene hand gel stops all the risk of spreading it when she is having such close contact with multiple people then she is just thick. Nothing you say will change it. You cannot reason with stupid; cut your loses and let her go.

She sounds more thick than a hypocrite.

This is about a friend who is a hypocrite

So shift her out of your life. You’re not forced to be ‘friends’ with anyone who you find morally questionable 🤷‍♀️

I try not to judge people but honestly that really got my goat.
I explained what my point was and she just kept replying
"They clean,they clean"
It's a bloody virus,you can catch it from someone coughing etc (I think )
She says I'm being risky stroking this kitten as my friend has touched it ....
The same person who goes in Tesco etc etc picking up and touching stuff
How do you win a argument with that ?

@ShirleyPhallus

Sigh. Isn’t anyone bored of the covid police?

No and I'd actually already have reported her to the actual police after telling her I'd do so if she didn't start to comply. This isn't a small bending of the rules for greater good. She's absolutely flouting them.

I agree with @sst1234 she sounds like she’s missing a bolt upstairs if it’s all about being clean.

People generally can find a million ways to justify their own bad behaviour. She started this and you had every right to call her out IMO.

Good for you for telling her how it is

How do you win a argument with that ?

You can’t. So give up trying to ‘win’ and step away from the ‘friend’ that you don’t like and who is causing un-needed friction in your life.

Well you don't 'win' by a bout of 'whataboutism'...

I watch my Neighbours have friends and family
Over & it breaks my Heart that I’m Stuck in unable to see my family because this pandemic & restrictions just go on and on, knowing fine well others don’t give a shit.

Ditch the hypocrite friend if she annoys you that much, doesn’t sound like much of a loss

I'm not sick of the covid police. I'd quite like to have a life again, for businesses to reopen and not to have to be scared for my mum and husband.

I'm sick of people doing whatever they want without thinking of others. In general and in covid.

Sounds like she’s sniffed a bit too much flash and melted a few brain cells op.

We’re has the kitten’s owner gone?

Ignore that.

mmm... hypocrite or just not understanding the relative different types of risks very well?

Do you have the type of friendship that can survive being told to F off?

@lljkk she's told me that many times when I pull her up on things

do you pull her up on a lot of things? weird kind of friendship if you're constantly calling her on her behaviour. She's probably sick of it and it's probably better if you too cool your relationship.
