I have really tried to be patient, but my friend is behaving downright rude! We are not romantically involved in any way whatsoever, so I just want to put that out there. However, he is exhibiting some mentally ill behaviors that are causing me too much stress & grief. He goes on and how he respects me and how we are such close friends, but I’m seriously feeling like it is a load of ********. He was supposed to come to my house to help me with some things and I was really depending on him to keep his word. He had a phone interview which I know didn’t last more than 20 min. The agreement was after he was done taking care of his business he would come to me. So around 1:45 I call and he rejects the call. I tried texting him and asking if we’re still on and no reply. I am getting extremely upset and I texted him way too many times which I regret. I should have given him until a certain time, then tell him I am not going to be home so next time. Come to find out his friend was visiting from out of town so she asked him to meet up for a quick lunch. Well, it takes two seconds to text but he said he didn’t want to be rude. Interesting being the limited times we went out to eat, he was hooked on his phone. Which made me realize I need to have stricter standards. He told me I was having an attitude which is what he says When I open my mouth and he doesn’t like what is said. Then he will say things like if I don’t like it we should move on. I brought up the fact, that were such good friends yet we rarely go out to eat. Then he starts making excuses like I work or I have a child. Women in their 40’s usually do! So we kind of got into it and all he was saying was how I have an attitude. I don’t, I just cannot stand flakes and people who don’t keep their word! I know if I had invited him to lunch and he was supposed to meet one of his friends to help him, he wouldn’t blow them off that’s for sure! I said to him so, if I call you up asking to meet for lunch you will say yes? He says yes if I’m home I will. He’s unemployed, when isn’t he home???🙄 Anyways, he started saying I’m immature and over reacting all we can hang this weekend. No. Now he’s on a time out. I’m always with him on the weekends. Cooking for us, helping clean his house etc. He had the nerve to say how his friends comment how good he treats me. That’s all an act to look good. I know we’re just friends, but I don’t like feeling like I don’t matter and my feelings don’t matter. Even after I said I feel hurt by his actions, he took no responsibility.
