You guys asked for it.

So, I have a friend. Or possibly had one. He used to be a cool guy, really nice. But then, for some reason, he began to change - he began to start fighting with some of my other friends for seemingly no reason whatsoever. I offered to mediate, but since I didn't have any authority at the time, I couldn't do much.

Anyway. So, a couple of days ago, I'm reading the friendslist for one of my journals, and I read an entry from this guy. In it, he takes a huge steaming s**t on one of his oldest friends and one of my own friends. To add insult to injury, a lot of my other friends are like, "well, yeah, she's a useless b***h anyway! ******** her, you're awesome!"

And it kind of felt like I'd witnessed my own murder I was the victim of a serious crime I'd been kicked in the stomach. Not only because of that on its own, but because a couple of weeks ago, he s**t all over my boyfriend and a couple of my other friends right where they could see it, and just dismissed it as "a bad day."

I mean, yeah, I've had bad days myself, and I've been really snappish. But I was just totally hurt by that myself. Maybe I'm getting a bit overly sensitive in my old age, but that's just my opinion.

Maybe it's because this kind of hits home for me - one of my own friends dumped me for someone who was "better" (she also used to be my friend until she turned back into a conniving b***h) and pretty much spent two months doing nothing but talking about how awesome this other friend was like no one else existed. But it's like...I know I should probably stay out of it, but it freaking kills me to see this happening.

And if push comes to shove, I'm afraid that I'll have to just...cut him out of my life, like he never existed. I genuinely liked him, but it seems that all he does now is just treat people I respect like s**t.

Sadly, sometimes people change over time. Have you actually talked to this guy about the way he's acting? Sometimes people don't realize they've been acting like assholes until you tell them.

And if he doesn't seem to care...then cut him loose. Real friends don't treat each other with disrespect. I know you have great memories of a really wonderful person, but if he doesn't see that he's treating people like crap, or if he does see and he doesn't care, then there's not much you can do.

If you have a bad day and you snap at someone without reason, you usually apologize, right? There's a difference between having a bad day and being a d**k.

It's probably because I haven't frequented the AMC in a while, and the past few days I've been poking my nose in... rofl

Just seeing what the fandom is turning into on Gaia makes me sad. While there are a few good threads out there, sometimes I don't feel like wading through the crap to find the gold.

I haven't said it directly, because it's far too confrontational to say, "You know, you're a d**k." But I have been like, "You know, that's not cool."

He does see, I think. But I'm not sure whether he cares - like, insulting your friends to their faces? Yeah.

He does apologize. I'm just not sure whether I should bother believing him anymore.

This is always a tough one..though I don't know you, I know you'll make the right decision in the end. Personally, if I knew someone like that I'd be just as upset about you but I would definitely not want to talk to them anymore. I have an easier time cutting people out of my life however. I've even made myself hate people (probably ex's or something). I'm not saying you do that, hate is never good.. But when that person's negativity affects you and others like that, it's not someone that is good to hang around. Maybe if more people leave them alone, they'll realize what's going on and try to change? I don't know, but if they're bringing you down the way they are, you don't deserve that. Cheesy, maybe..maybe not, but either way you look at it everyone deserves to be happy (well, unless you're like..a crazed murderer or something but I'm sure you get my drift). Just do what you think is best, what will make you happy in the end. Cutting drama out of life=win. Back when one of my sisters and her four kids were living with my mom and I still, I was getting very depressed towards the end of her stay there because she turned into a total b***h for not getting her way (keep in mind she's like..36 or older). When she finally left however, I didn't think I needed to go back on AD's, and I definitely got more 'happy' if you could call it that. But once the negativity from the person was gone, it just made life a little easier.
