If you tell him to stop doing something, and he STILL does, it, then you need to tell him to stop doing that again or ELSE you will not respond back to him, talk to him, text him, email him, whatever. Then DO it!

When you show others that they there will be consequences for their actions, it can motivate them to adjust how they end up treating you. If all else fails, then maybe it's time to move on and find better friends, or to just keep him as a casual acquaintance.
Yeah.

I feel bad. Still. Sometimes I wonder if I should be more laid back and chill with whatever he says or however he reacts. Then I realize I have been.

What has made this so hard is that the good in him, and in our friendship, FAR outweighs the bad. I mean, how often is that the case? It's usually the other way around.
