This pretentious one leaves no stone unturned to make us feel jealous of his oh-so-perfect life\u2026 His “New Car!” “New Phone!” “New Hair!” posts are a torture to watch. Also, those exotic holiday snaps when the rest of us are stuck in work or college, and the only beach we will see is the one on our desktop wallpaper.<\/p>\n

<\/h2>\nEmpty Pockets<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\nThis annoying person loves the good life, but can\u2019t afford it! The friend with the empty pockets will constantly borrow money, but make it look like an afterthought as in, \u201cI forgot my wallet \u2013 can you get this and I\u2019ll pay you back?\u201d These annoying people tend to disappear into the bathroom as soon as they see the check approaching the table, conveniently forgetting to contribute to her share of the meal.<\/p>\n

<\/h2>\nThe Faultfinder<\/strong><\/h2>\nYou know these friends: They’re always critical of everything you do and say, which can be contagious. If this friend has redeeming traits, ignore the overly critical comments or make a joke by saying something like, “Let’s see if you can last an hour without saying anything negative.”<\/p>\n

<\/h2>\nThe Self-Absorbed<\/strong><\/h2>\nEveryone is self-absorbed to some extent, but when a person is always focused on her\/him and never lets you share anything about yourself, something needs to be done. She may not be aware she’s doing this, but then you\u2019ve got to let your friend know. If she can’t curb this trait and you don’t want the friendship to end, limit how long you let her go on about herself; then give yourself equal air time.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Copy-Cat<\/strong><\/h2>\nImitation is the highest form of flattery, but it could create hostility between you and your friend. If you want to keep her around, protect yourself by keeping things to yourself more often or timing when you share information. If, though, this trait is too annoying, end the friendship.<\/p>\n
