Dear Marge,
I think my friend is faking food allergies. We go to restaurants and she has long conversations with the waiter about how she will get really sick if there is even a hint of … and then she names like seven or eight foods she can’t eat. And when any of us want to get together at each other’s houses, it becomes this whole big production to make something she will eat. But seriously, this just sort of appeared one day; she went from being normal to having these “severe” (her word) allergies overnight. Plus, none of us have ever seen her actually get sick or have a reaction.
If I were 100% sure that it was real, I swear I would have total sympathy for her. But I think she is faking — maybe for attention — which makes this super annoying. It’s embarrassing at restaurants and a royal pain when we’re hanging out. It’s gotten to the point that I don’t even want to see her, because I don’t want to deal. I want to call her out on it, but I don’t know how.
Signed,
Friend of Faker Girl
