dear angel cake,
i have been struggling with a few new friendships lately and wanted to get your perspective on navigating new friendships. especially ones where you just clash heads wit.
im in a friendship circle currently where it’s all my fiancé guy best friends and im sort of “forced” (not literally) to befriend all his best friends wives. one of them i don’t get along with too well bc she’s threatened by me, my style, personality and all sorts of stuff. she’ll try to one up me on things - ex: she sees my new shoes im wearing and she’ll say “ oh i added those to my cart 3 wks ago already” or she’ll copy everything about me - like aesthetics, outfits, etc. I don’t know if you know much about the enneagram but she’s an unhealthy 7. She says she’s a "girl’s girl" but her actions prove otherwise.
The main point is that im having a hard time navigating her while trying to be friendly with everyone else in the friendship circle of my fiancé.
Thank you so much,
an actual girl’s girl
