Ugh, yes. And a lot of these people do come from genuinely awful homes or otherwise have experienced abuse themselves, but it's like, that doesn't give you a free pass to be abusive and terrible yourself, you need to take responsibility for shit you're actually responsible for. Friendship shouldn't mean signing up to be somebody's rescuer on a white horse.

True, that can be the case, although it's not all the time. The friend I mentioned in my first comment, the one who tried to use me as a therapist? She came from a lovely home - loving parents whom she told me great things about, a gorgeous home where she never wanted for anything, two supportive big brothers and a sweet little sister. She often boasted about how awesome her family was. She just had a terrible case of middle child syndrome. She constantly tried to compare herself to her brothers, even though doing so seemed to upset and distress her mother - when I stayed with the family I saw her continually try to put her parents on the spot, trying to get them to compare her unfavourably with her brothers, and when they wouldn't do it she'd get in a strop that she couldn't trick them into saying something she could hold against them. (I actually overheard her mother trying to talk to her about it, trying to say there was no need for that, she loved all her children equally, and the friend just shrugged it off.) Thing was, her brothers weren't exactly perfect - they were kind of aimless and obviously quite coddled. But they were goodlooking, whereas my friend struggled with her weight and her skin, so she seemed to think her parents should prefer her brothers based on their looks alone. She was also strangely overbearing with her younger sister, kept fussing at her and telling her off for the smallest things. She obviously had issues, but I think they mostly stemmed from her own problems with her self-esteem, rather than any actual abuse. I think anyone can end up being that type of friend, no matter what their background, unfortunately.

Oh jesus, yeah. I didn't mean to say it was only abused people that had it- some people are narcissists, for example, which I'm pretty sure is genetic and has nothing to with background.
