I actually had to drop a friend because every time we meet up, even going to like lake events and what not, all he did was complain about his life. Like dude, I hear you but I am trying to have fun right now. If you have that many stuff to work on, please seek a pro.

its basically a bike made out of meat, from a psycho man who can only say very weird things like
âI AM THE CONDUCTOR OF THE 
TRAIN!â

Youâre the one that associated him with the president elect and made a complaint about it.
Youâre right, the next time someone comes up to me and is clearly, visibly upset, Iâll say âhold it buddy! go see a therapist!â
When Tony Soprano briefly lost Dr. Melfiâs help, he would annoy his friend Hesh by using him as a therapist. Eventually their friendship ended over 200k that Tony owed Hesh. Donât be like Tony Soprano.

I had the same thing happen to me. It was exhausting.

No, I specifically said not him because I knew people will jump on that aspect. I didnât even watch that one so I have zero say in what happened there. I specifically named Terrance Howard and Bob Lazer, the crazies. I said the obvious one because a lot of people donât like him or do like him and having him brought up just derails the convo. Which you are doing.
Check the bathroom mirror Mr chip on your shoulder.

There is a gentler way to address the issue, without being dismissive of their distress. âI see youâre suffering through something right now, and Iâm sorry to say I canât help the way you need. Have you considered seeing a professional?â

I donât know which I appreciate more - non stop war or microplastics in every living thing on the globe . Either way - great job !
Yeah, but that requires them to actually care about their friend and not being dismissive.

yeah, i can see that, but sometimes those friends are also going through some stuff of their own - or their spouses and family. Or, sometimes the individual needs someone outside the immediate circle to help them with a unbiased opinion.
But I do agree that ideally we do have big, rich social safety nets from our friends and family/found-family, but sometimes thatâs not always the case.
It was obvious who you were talking about. If you didnât want to mention him you shouldnât have made the post.
Iâm literally just telling people to be good towards each other. Theyâre saying they dump friends for having emotions. My bad, Iâll do better.
I would try listening to a person and giving advice. Thatâs like the most basic thing a person can do.
You said you dumped your friend because they were too emotional⊠I have never done that.
Or Goose.
Neither went out how theyâd have liked.

That is why I didnât name him, that was the whole point.
what about a small microbe that eats micro plastics?
the air brakes were put on and he just departed all of our lives in an instant⊠

Yeah, because sometimes, no amount of friendship is going to help a person who doesnât want to help themselves and that will just drag you down along with them.
You also need to learn self love as well, which us Men need to do. Boundaries! Us men need boundaries!
So if it was obvious, and you knew it was obvious, and you made the post anyways⊠then your point about not wanting to get political was BS.
Should I take lessons from you? Whenever people ask for help Iâll tell them that I canât be bothered?
Again, it depends on their issue. If their car broke down and theyâre frustrated, thatâs one thing. An entirely different thing is some kind of psychological break. I listen to my friends when possible, but I also donât pretend I will give as fulfilling of advice, answers, or responses as a professional could.
