stop sharing your interests with her for a while. Instead, ask her opinion on things and copy her...it will show her how annoying and stupid it looks.

Start to distance yourself from her. i.e Don't go out of your way to talk to her, call her, hang out with her, etc. If she calls you.....1. You either don't pick up the phone or cut the call short. 2. If she wants to hang out....you're busy. I mean don't do it all at once, but start. She's obviously insecure........

Your friend obviously doesn't realize what she's doing is annoying you. She likes the way you act and dress, and she loves your personality. She wants to be exactly like you. I know what you're going through. I hate it when my friends all of sudden change their minds when my idea is different from theirs, and change the way they act to be exactly like me. It's really annoying, but I've realized it's just because they like the way I act. Now, copying somebody because you like what they've done once in a while is okay. But your friend has gone too far without realizing it. Your friend probably felt that everybody liked you and you were popular. She thought that to have everybody like her, she had to act like a likable person-so why not act like one she knows? So she chose you-her friend. But instead acting like a likeable person, she just annoyed you. Don't take it offensively-it's more like a really annoying compliment. Try talking to your friend. Tell her you like the real her-who isn't you. Tell her it's okay for you two to be a little alike, but you want to leave it at that. She needs to know that it's annoying you. She's your friend, so she should accept your feelings. Also tell her that she needs to be herself. Tell her that the world already has one of you, so they don't need a copy. Tell her you still want to be friends, but that it's okay for you two to be a little different. If your friend is a true friend, she'll understand. If your friend still doesn't stop, then maybe it's best to leave it be. If your friend wants to be somebody totally different then the real her to impress everyone, then that's her problem-cause' I don't think it's really impressing anybody. In the meantime, just be you. You can still talk to your friend and everything, but if you don't trust she won't copy you with something, then don't tell her about it. For example, if you have a favourite colour,don't feel obligated to tell her what it is. Everything will be fine, I promise. Wink -Claire Cool

people copy other people because they look up to them if this other person were to be trying to be evil they wouldnt go as far as you say this person has more than likely she or he thinks you are a cool person and they are trying to be like you so other people think they are cool to if it was me i would give her some suggestions on how to be like you but a little different such as same hair style different color or same style clothes but not the same outfit this type of thing is a very common problem or situation i should say but like i said if i were you i would be proud that someone wanted to be like myself hope this helps
