They may mean well, but there’s something about those friends who can never seem to say (or do) the right thing. Lifehacker reader PKA-323 had one such “friend” in her group (we’ll call her Tammy) who managed to foul up numerous occasions.
“When my friend Amy had a miscarriage, Tammy said to her, ‘Wow, I hope there’s nothing bad wrong with you so that you can’t have kids.’
“When my live-in boyfriend broke up with me right before Christmas (shortly after my dad unexpectedly died) citing my depression and ‘lack of sex’ as his main concern, she said to me, ‘Well, he just had bad timing.’” Is that all, Tammy—just bad timing?
And during a group get-together, “At the end of the night, she got very drunk and announced that she had been planning to stay overnight at my house all along (was not aware of this). My other friend, Megan, had already previously asked well in advance to stay in my guest bedroom so that was taken...Tammy says, ‘That’s fine, I’ll just sleep in the bed with you.’ We are grown-ass women in our late 30s, people. I said, no, you won’t, no one sleeps in my bed besides me and the occasional man I bring home.”
She sent her to the couch, which she complained about. Moral of the story? Don’t have a friend named Tammy.
