'Friend'

I've posted about this 'friend previously.
She's very grabby, greedy and basically not really a friend to me at all.
It was recently my Birthday. I didn't even receive a 'Happy Birthday' despite her turning up on my doorstep to show me her latest purchase that very day and glaring at my Birthday cards and flowers that were in my window.
It was her Birthday the week before and I made a fuss. I feel like such a doormat.
I really want nothing more to do with the user however I'd like some advice on how I can let her know what I think of her and withdraw from the 'friendship' without a scene.

I think you'll have to choose; giving her a piece of your mind would be cathartic, but then you've made a scene.
Maybe a quiet withdrawal, and a response of "Three guesses?" when she demands an explanation.

Phase it out, take ages to get back to her or not respond and she'll hopefully get the hint. If she turns up at your doorstep then say sorry I'm busy can't talk now, I'm on the phone to my aunt, friend etc.
