I warmed to her briefly, during the first week. But I don't much like her overall. There's a sweet side to her, yes; but she also seems emotionally manipulative, overly clingy and entirely self-centred.

I don't know whether she is emotionally manipulative and clingy because she hasn't had any friends and therefore has never learned to navigate an adult friendship, or if she hasn't had any meaningful adult friendships because she is emotionally manipulative and clingy, and has therefore pushed people away.

She's fascinating to watch, and I do feel for her, but I wouldn't want her in my social circle. Too high maintenance and draining.
