So my friend who I've been friends with for years always feels like she try's to get one up on me in life (too many examples to tell you )
Anyway today it's my birthday and she texts me
"Omg look what I got,£5 in Superdrug"
It's your favourite perfume isn't it reduced in the clearance (it's normally around £45)
I got 4 bottles-1 for me and I sold the other 3 to (named two other friends and her cousin) for £5
They couldn't believe it when I told them
Then I said "oh you should have grabbed me one for £5"
She replied "oh yeah it's your fav isn't it-next time if I see any I will"

It came across a bit spiteful to me
Aibu ?

Why is she your friend then and why ask her for one when you know how her things are gotten?

She sounds strange too, the conversations you've posted are confusing and brings up more questions.

To be fair I believe Superdrug were selling perfumes really cheap this week but her actions are odd!

Just block her and gift yourself the freedom of having nothing to do with her

I bet that perfume smells rancid

It's just odd that she went out of her way to tell me
It's like she gets a odd kick from it
Oh well
Have a merry Christmas Everyone

She doesn’t sound like a very considerate friend. Ignore her comments, make yourself a nice drink and have a lovely evening. Merry Christmas for tomorrow 🎄

Weird that your friends with her.

Do you have other friends? What does this friendship give you?

It sounds toxic 😷

wherearebeefandonioncrisps · 24/12/2022 18:22

Yeah... that wasn't nice at all.
Deliberate in fact.

I'd give her a wide berth from now on. Especially as she has form for this.

She sounds so inconsiderate , I agree with you it is spiteful and thoughtless.

Lol. You can’t be spiteful and thoughtless at the same time.

Y’all are so damn needy.

We haven't seen each other in about a year now
If anything she's more a texting friend
She doesn't go out anywhere-she's just turned so bitter to anyone having fun

So she’s not actually your friend, you never see her, you just exchange texts about bargains she’s found? This whole scenario is pretty odd.

We have been friends for years
Up until a year ago we seen each other every other week.
We text most days
