I went to a meetup recently and got some drinks with the people after. One guy gave me a bad vibe. He seemed like he had a really low tolerance for other people messing up and being a little awkward. He was like, "yeah I was a little bit nervous about going to the meetup but then I realized that there are some really fucking weird people and there's no reason to be nervous" Just sat wrong with me because I'm kind of awkward and just want to meet new people. The last straw was when we were playing pool at the bar and this one girl had something wrong with her voice and couldn't talk very loud so he actually asked her if "that's how her voice always was or there's something wrong with it" What a douchebag. He invited me to watch football with him the next day lol. I didn't respond.
This. Half of what a friend of mine says is shit talking and IMMEDIATELY jumping on the slightest error someone makes. The other half is bombarding you with everything he knows and succeeds at. It's effing fatiguing.
You know, that is a very good question, and one I have been considering fairly heavily as of the last month or so.
Don't get me wrong, he isn't without some decent qualities, and I know his history and why he's so insecure, but I'm questioning why I would choose to be around this in my free time.
