I'm probably a negative nancy but...

I have this friend (been friends with her since high school), and she's such a sweet girl. She has a daughter and a husband and their family is so cute! But they're all she ever talks about.

And don't get me wrong! I LOVE to hear about the silly things her baby girl does and the sweet things her husband does for her, but it's a bit excessive? Everytime we text it feels like a one sided convo about HER life. At first i thought i was just being a weirdo getting annoyed by this, but i looked at all our messages over the past few months and it's all literally a one sided conversation. Anytime i try telling her about myself for once or talking about something else, she immediately turns it back to her. She'll send pictures of herself or of her daughter all the time saying "dont i look cute?". And i used to give them sincere compliments all the time, but i can only give so many compliments before i run out. And im not jealous of her. If anything, I'm happy for her. She's so beautiful and her family is too... but goodness it's like everything revolves around her.

Anyways. I've reduced my contact with her because, honestly, the conversation gets pretty boring when that's all we talk about. Again, im probably being a horrible negative person and friend. It's probably why i don't have many friends to begin with.. It's whatever. I wasn't looking for advice or anything. I guess i was just venting. ✌
