What prompts your friend to repeat your every step? Friendships can end up breaking up if your friend copies you with malicious intent. Or maybe - to be filled with a new reason for jokes, if you calm down your irritation and help your friend find herself.
Instructions
Step 1
Try to understand why your friend is copying you and how deeply passionate she is about it. Do you go to the same university, buy the same bags and even young people with the same names? Perhaps a friend fluctuates in her own tastes and preferences, and you are the very landmark that is always there.
Step 2
A serious danger of having such "repeats" in friends is that by completely copying you, they copy not only the color of your varnish or the style of your skirt, but also your lifestyle, statements, behavior. A friend gets so used to the role that she is able to pass off your opinion as her own. Moreover, the obsession of such people sometimes has no limits and can lead to the fact that, in your appearance, a friend is ready to go on outrageous deeds. Hiding behind someone else's image, she is ready to forgive herself a lot and even step over you. Think about your friendship.
Step 3
Maybe a friend thinks like this: you and her are “sisters”, “one team”. She likes to emphasize the similarities between you, thereby showing those around you that you are close. She not only copies your gait, gestures and phone model, but in a conversation she prefers to use “my friend and I” instead of “me”.
Step 4
If your friend is an insecure, timid girl who is afraid to seem funny and tasteless by nature, help her. You can start a conversation by saying that she is dear to you, but copying is annoying. Explain that you don't mind sometimes going to the disco with her in matching dresses just for fun, but you're not interested in being friends with your clone. Convince your friend that you are ready to give endless advice and go shopping with her, only, mind you, you help her, but everyone chooses his own.
Step 5
It happens that a friend is just too lazy to waste her time in the throes of choice. Going with the flow, the girlfriends of the "indifferent" warehouse blindly copy the nearest available. Treat the situation with humor. Make a few hints like, “We are already considered twins! I suggest to be them only on weekends, and better - not more than once a month! ".
Step 6
Why not openly tell your friend that you want to be different? A sensitive friend will understand that after this statement, her imitation will inevitably lead to a quarrel, of which she will be the instigator.
Step 7
Isn't she doing it out of spite? Does your friend envy you? Its "thick" calculation may consist in the fact that by simply copying it, it kills your uniqueness. Study the situation carefully before drawing conclusions. If the meanness is obvious - alas, admit that you no longer have a girlfriend.
