Frenimies

To clarify on my last post:

Typically, those persons that believe they "know" what's going on, are Frenimies.

Frenimies are a unique and special kind of person. They were maybe once a friend but are no longer, they are not quite an arch enemy but could be.

Often, they are incredibly self-centered people that, unfortunately, you must endure for a good part of your life.

Unlike good friends, frenimies do not move away, they stay, like a stain you can never remove. They email me. Daily. They don't go away and if you try to ignore them, they pester you or other people you know.

I know that you are going to say "Emily, why do you keep these people in your life"

I am sure you have heard the saying, keep your friends close and your enemy's closer. This applies to frenimies. It is easier to be civil and tolerate it than to try and deal with them when they get angry. And don't feed them after midnight.

Frenimies, bad.
