Definition: Given a real-life anecdote of a complex ethical situation, generate a suitable title that describes the main event/root cause of the situation. Imagine that the given text is a social media post, and you have to write the title of the post, so the users can decide to read the main text or not.
Input: My boyfriend has this friend (that we’ll call C) who is actually his cousin due to marriage. (His uncle married her mom.) My boyfriend and C met before that and have known each other for 4 years now. I guess he doesn’t even consider her a friend because he openly admits that she’s not the best person, but she considers him her best friend. 

Fast forward where she is always asking him to hangout and sends him drunk “I miss you” texts and tells him “I love you” all of the time. I feel like she’s crossing the line. 

Just tonight, C asked him if he wanted to go for a drive as hangout because she was “bored out of her mind” and he declined. He replied saying, “I don’t have any gas money, but ask u/shxrpie. I’m sure she wants to get out of the house anyway.” She simply said, “I could.” 

Him and I both wait for C to message me for about 20 minutes until I decide to message her saying, “I heard I was offered up to hangout with you. Let me know, and I’ll come pick you up.” Nothing. It’s been an hour and she hasn’t replied.

This isn’t the first time this has happened. She has declined me numerous times, saying she was busy everyday, but proceeds to ask him to go out the next day. He declines every time. I figured I’d try to befriend her because she hangs around my boyfriend, and I need more friends anyway. 

Basically, AITA for asking my boyfriend to ignore her like she does to me?

There has been a few other times as well where she has treated me like garbage. I don’t ever want to be labeled as the bitchy girlfriend, but she has definitely pushed my boundaries more than once. He doesn’t have many people to talk to, so he keeps her around because he’s able to talk about movies and TV shows with her since I don’t really watch anything. I don’t want to be controlling, and I don’t want it to seem like I’m being controlling. I just really don’t like how she treats me compared to him. 

TL;DR: Boyfriend has a friend/cousin who chooses to ignore me, so I asked my boyfriend to ignore her back. AITA?
