Update:
I had decided to use Saty's suggestion & encourage this friend to ask my other so-called friend out, so she'd stop acting like a psycho-bitch. When he stopped by my job on his way through town, I told him I wanted to talk to him about something, & he said he needed to talk to me as well...I let him go first.
He proceeds to tell me that he was told something about me by her that had him concerned. She told him I had feelings for him, & he said he was surprised to hear that & he didn't want to hurt my feelings (he was obviously being sincere), but he thought we should not try to be more than friends. I started laughing like a crazy person, which confused the hell out of him. IMO, she was fishing when she told him that crap just to see what he would say.
He asked what was so funny, so I told him that I don't know where she got that idea, but what I wanted to talk to him about was his interest in her & that I was going to suggest he ask her out. He said that the situation was confusing because in light of what she told him & her weird behavior, he thought he'd initially misread her signals. He was happy to hear that she's interested & that maybe her behavior came from thinking I liked him so it was her frustration coming out. I didn't say a word about my take on the whole thing (he had no idea how bad it had gotten). I didn't want to interfere with something that could possibly be good for both of them.
I felt much better about the situation after our conversation, & was hoping that his asking her out would, as Saty put it, help her "get over herself".
A couple of days after the convo, I got an email from her. Although I'd been keeping my distance & not communicating with her, I decided to read the email to see if she mentioned him asking her out. Evidently, she didn't get over herself at all; it read:
"Fuck you bitch! I knew he liked me better than you! Now you can stop chase him or even talk to him. Fucking bitch!"
All I could think was WTF? After an 8 year friendship & no serious issues between us, she's turned into a psycho who behaves like she's in the 5th grade wanting to fight over a boy on the playground. All she left out was 'ha ha' & an emoticon sticking it's tongue out at me. I guess just because I've never seen this side of her before the last few months doesn't mean that it isn't her true self coming out. The sad thing is, with this being her jacked up state of mind, I think she'll screw things up with him, because he's not the type of person who tolerates that mess. It's sad.
Of course I was upset about all the drama, but now I feel relieved. She evidently wasn't a real friend to begin with.
To keep the thread on track...FUCK THAT CRAZY BITCH.
Wow. And how old is this woman?
Truly, what a psychopath. Good riddance to her! It's a shame the friendship has to end, but really, with friends like that....
