I think that a longtime friend of mine could be over...

[Zech Marquis The 2nd]

Fellow DUers, I need to get a second opinion on something I've been considering for quite some time now. It seems like a longtime friend of mine and I might not be friends at all anymore :-(

How did this happen? Several months ago, I attended the birthday party of the soon to be ex BFF's father. Real cool guy, he's always been very friendly to me. And Im going to hook him up with a Harmony Universal remote (a real fancy one!) So anyhow, my so called best friend seemed really irritated, almost like,"don't come near me!" I figured maybe she was stressed out form all the party preparations or something minor. But as things got rolling in the backyard with the food, she suddenly got loud and mentioned something to the effect of "being tired of (me) focusing (my) attention on THAT WOMAN!!!"

When I chat online in Google with the forementioned so to be ex BFF, I have the photo of my GF as my icon. Nothing naughty nor skanky, just a photo of her working on her cruise ship off the coast of Italy. I wouldnt think that my GF being from Austria would be an issue, after all, my friend of 16 years is engaged to an Air Force pilot. Yet, she never calls my GF by her name, it's always "that woman!" or,"that east european woman"...

If I were to say the same thing about my bff's fiance, I'd catch all kinds of hell, and it would be really rude. Can I even call someone so narrow minded a friend at all? I seriously dont want to see the BFF again, not for quite some time at the very least.
