Title: A bitter friendship.
AngelHalo - September 24, 2007 04:22 AM (GMT)
Ever since I've moved to Texas, during Sophomore year, I sort of befriended this one kid, who I have been nice to. During Junior year, he was an ass-hole to me. With a group of people I hang out with, only that kid was the one who threaten physical violence, what I mean is, one day, on the bus, that kid was making fun of me, I made a good come-back, then he slapped me across the face, and attempted to call him weak. The driver did something about that, but in a couple of weeks, he apologized and became my friend. The group of people I hang out with accepted me more as time passed, and although, we've befriended each other (despite constant immature pranks on one-another), they question that kid's role in the group. During Senior year, I had a feeling about something I disagreed with about that kid. I drive him to and from school pretty much everyday until he gets his own automobile. A couple of times, when I drive him to tutorials or to work, he thanks me and makes up a homosexual remark (saying if he was gay, blah blah blah), however, this wasn't the thing I disagreed with, as the whole group seems to be aware of this kid making these remarks previously (not to mention, that I am no homophone). Friday night, that kid was making an immature insult at me (as the group usually does to each other), so I tried to counter, only to be ignored by that kid (which is unusual, considering that the group DOES give me a chance to speak like ALL the time, like they do others), and that kid was playing on my X-Box, playing Halo 2 online, playing with all equipment that isn't property of his in any way. I felt it was suitable to power off my X-Box and remove the cord. The kid seemed pretty calm, but then suddenly engaged into an argument, attempting to down me by saying "You pulled a bitch-move", and tried to make arguments like me being spoiled, which is pretty much false since I work my ass off to earn the stuff I have today (chores, lawn mowing, dishes, towel folding, laundry, mail gather, being obedient to my parents, etc, etc), so I tried to counter back, only to fail because he keeps replying "YOU PULLED A BITCH MOVE!" every time I open my mouth, and he even threaten physical violence (if you understand the term "if the person is stupid, the world will kill that person", you'd know that he has no idea who he would be dealing with and could get hurt very badly if that happens), so I figured it wasn't worth it so I left to another room, where my other friend, a good one who doesn't really like that kid, and told him of the situation due to his curiosity, then that kid returns in here to finish his so-called argument, only to get owned badly by my friend (I suck at come-backs, so it's a rare expectancy for me to talk back unless I have knowledge of, which is this case, but like I said, that kid won't let me speak any word) who stood up for me, arguing that I did much for this kid (truth) and got paid back squat, and also mentioned "He has things he worked for, you don't have shit!", which is ironically true, since he barely gets along with his family. It was so bad, that he left the house.
I found out what I didn't like about him, and it is the fact that he takes everything seriously. Among my friends, he thinks he is the best of the bunch, considering that he was part of the football team, and thinks that he is physically better, despite the fact that about 5 times, he has lost in a fight with one of my friend's, a school-graduate, Often/Long-time WoW player, who barely works out but plays basketball from time to time. This kid has moved from New York city, where his parents used to be in the military. My friends doesn't really like this kid, but doesn't mind his presence as long as he isn't a bother. This kid does owe me $25 for gas, and I have already thought about no longer providing transportation since pretty much for a whole year, I helped, I spend for him, and alls I get is threats and an attempt to remove my right on the first amendment.
Can the fallout shelter provide a possible solution from this?

Really it wouldn't be my place to give advice, since I'm only 14, but I believe that you should drop his ass on the street, and let him realize that he owes you more respect than you get.

The next time he wanna come out of his mouth like that, FUCK HIS ASS UP! SHOW NO REMOSE! SHOW NO MERCY! Repeat process if necessary!
Wow I suck at advice.

You know what I don't have many freinds but according to your description he is not a freind.

I couldn't emphazise this more if I tried; he's a moocher and a sleaze--get him out of your life.
If he's going to start treating you this way and he takes advantage of you the way that he does, YOU deserve more respect than that...he doesn't have the right to take advantage of your friendship and your good will like that.
From what you've said, I personally think he's an arrogant, cocky assf***. He's not the kind of person that needs to be a part of your life, and if this continues, you'll soon be nothing more than a doormat for him to walk all over.
So do NOT let that happen to you. Try to get the money that he owes you from him, and then just say, "bye-bye."
Of course....it's entirely all up to you. I just think that it would be a shame to let this "kid" continue to act and treat you the way that he does now. =/

We kind of made up, although he still hasn't given me my money since he used it to buy himself a 360 a couple weeks later, along with Halo 3, and he got fired from his job because of an unsatisfied schedule. He plans on entering the Army after he graduates...if that is going to happen.
I was at my friend's house, as we usually get together every Friday, and we learn that my "friend"'s (quotation to specify what friend we speak of) brother got suspended from school.
My "friend"'s brother got arrested the other day for procession of weed, and the next day, I drove my "friend" to school, and I heard he shoved some guy for snitching on his brother, then got suspended (or expelled according to two of my friends, but I don't think so), and got into an argument with his father, and my "friend"'s mother threw a fit as well, and he left the house.
I don't know what happen beyond that, but to provide more info, his brother is nice to me, especially when he helped get my trunk cover of my car fixed, but he is an ass towards his brother, being my "friend" (you know, the sibling rivalry thing, while my "friend" is a senior, and plans to enter the military, his brother is a sophomore...again, and smokes, as obviously stated above).
It'll return to normal in the mean time, I'm sure. He is pretty much the least favorite among my group of friends as considered by...everyone. As long as he doesn't involve me into any thing, and doesn't pull off any more shit against me, it'll be alright. Did I mention he's a busta (a pretend gangster)?
Sorry that this topic is long over-due, but I figured I give an update at least.

Well Halo, your in quite the predicament here. Think about it, what has this guy done for you? He doesn't sound like a good friend at all, just that what he does just seems like he is just using you. I mean yeah, maybe he might act like a friend a lot, but honestly, the kid needs to grow up. Doing things like that, he seems like an immature jerk. I don't think he's worth your time. Time to cut your losses and move on.

Another update to those whose interested.
I'm avoiding him as much as I can. He doesn't seem interested to speak with me unless if he needs a ride back home if he doesn't have his vehicle, in which case I would add "$20, and you got yourself a deal." Inevitably, I might see him at one of my friends house since he's pretty much only there to either play Halo 3, and get nearly as angry as the Angry Video Game Nerd every time he dies (he's the "Hey, grab the gun, and rush right in, and hope we win, other wise, this TV in front of me, or my 360 is ending up in the junkyard" kind of player), play WOW as he normally does (which always keeps him busy), mock a couple of people at the house as a joke (although, at a rare case, he takes the pranks at him seriously, if you didn't catch my drift before), and claim he is better than me at Halo 3 (well, at least I come up with a strategy all the time, learn from all the players, learn about the weapons, and try not to die much. What do you do? You just rush in and hope for the best, without any clue whatsoever.) in order to vainly gain respect from one of my friend's brother who basically pays for his family's internet service (fyi: he's trying to start a clan) and who tea-bagged him as an opportune joke as every one of us watched (I wasn't there when it happened), so why he would want to gain respect from the clothed-nut to face distributor is beyond me. To sum up my friend's brother, I get a free x-box headset, and the asshole got what he had coming as stated above.
Thanks for your opinion, as pretty much all my other friends agree with each-other that they barely want nothing to do with this asshole, especially ever since the incident in my previous post.
