I (16f) have a friend I'll call riley (15f) we have known each other for maybe 6 months and have always had 2 classes together plus did some of the same clubs so we had become pretty close. She had always had a few things about her that i found annoying but i have always just let it go saying that it was just her autism/adhd.

But recently she started getting worse, shes demanding, like she expects everyone to do what she wants and orders her friends around. One of my things is that she always sits next to me and makes me plug in her charger and that would normally be fine but she does it even when im trying to work. She also has a habit of talking through everything, lessons, me talking, announcements ect.

It got worse the other day when she had this snapping prank gum that she was dead set on me pulling it. I had also been on my period that day so i was more irritable and snaps more easily. Our first class she asked me probably 5 times even after explaining its a prank. Then in our next class together she kept asking even saying what will it take to get you to pull it. At that point i had snapped and said louder than normal. "i dont care about you stupid gum and im not in the mood for that, save it for your other friend" as she had originally gotten it for her other friend.

The part that makes this a little harder is that i have had multiple teachers say that im such a good friend for always helping and comforting her when she gets upset or overwhelmed. that has made me think this is worse than it probably is. So AITA?
