The other problem that I realised was that he had an opinion about almost everything. Half of those topics I didn’t even engage him in. For example I would make a comment to my friend about my job/work. And he would have an opinion on that.

I didn’t engage in these discussions with him. But I found it quite difficult to be around.

I think I’m worried about my friend too, she apologised on behalf of him later (something I didn’t need to hear or expect to hear from her) and said that she doesn’t really “know much” so she doesn’t engage with him when he has these opinions. But some of her other friends can’t stand to be around him because he has insulted them.
