A high school group of friends is becoming increasingly frustrated with a woman who constantly boasts about her own life, her children, cooking skills, and other achievements. She is so full of herself that she dominates the group's weekly get-togethers. This behavior is causing them to become so self-centered that they cannot understand each other's body language or facial expressions. If the group is fed up, you may ask her to leave, or establish a group time limit for sharing. The author suggests these measures could be effective, but the author also suggests that the personalities are not matching up anymore and may be best going their separate ways. In response to this, the author expresses concern for the safety of her daughter, who recently came out as a lesbian, and her husband, who has been in counseling for three years. She also suggests seeing a counselor who is less interested in applying the "roublemaker" label and helping identify what is being done to identify what issues are causing her.
