Aw, I feel bad for her. It sounds like she's trying really hard to get her new H's friends to like her. I will be a voice of dissent and say I'd take pity on her and be sweet back. If you want to stay friends with the dude you probably don't have a choice anyway
She sounds ficking weird to me. Avoid, do not give her any reason to go SWF on your ass. If she asks later just say "oh, sorry- we were so busy having fun it never crossed my mind.."
My response makes me an asshole, I guess- but she is waaaaaaaaay too overly friendly for my taste. Get to know me first before demanding I run errands for you on my vacation.
I think she is just trying to be nice. Does anyone ever really want a postcard? Is this 1964?
I was kind of wondering about this. If it was me, I would given Miso the puffy-heart card and told her to have a nice trip. It would have never occurred to me to ask for a postcard. lol

Can you maybe compromise and send her one post card? That will show that you were thinking of her and possibly be enough to keep her from feeling sad and venting to your H's friend, but without you having to spend much time or effort.
I wouldn't ask somebody I wasn't close to for multiple, or maybe even one, postcard/s, so I don't think you're an asshole for feeling irritated. I also can see how showing interest in your travels might seem to her like a good way to further a friendship with you.
I feel bad for this chick. She's definitely trying to establish a connection with you. I would have just taken the card as a nice gesture and wouldn't send a postcard at all, because it isn't what you normally do.

Maybe she just likes making fucking crafts y'all!
I know. That's why I'm an asshole.
But...a crafty card really only drives me far, far away. LOL.

Don't worry. I will send one postcard.
But I just don't want to get sucked into her world of wall words and photo walls. She recently stenciled, "Oh, the places you'll go!" in her dining room and surrounded it with photos.

Eh, just tell her white (or do you have gray?) walls are your thing.
She'll get it that you guys are different soon enough, and if she's all sister-sister-twinsy friends type she will distance herself anyway because your comfort with yourself will bewilder her. If she's just being awkward, she will relax soon and maybe you can be good friends.
I wouldn't jump to a conclusion first, but I do totally get being weirded out by it all.

And then she suggested that I do the same.
Well, that is interesting...She sounds a little immature, IMO.
And not that it really matters, but are the photos at least in frames?
