I lost one of my very best friends last year to an evil girlfriend of his. He was a cool guy that I knew for 13 years. In our last year we would always hangout, meetup for beers etc, and half the time it would be him whining about how much he hates his gf. He would bash the crap out of her, while I listened, saying he is going to break up with her etc, but it never came to past. She would call him on his cell while he was at a bar, ask him where he was, he would lie to her saying he's at home "studying", and then after we got out of the bar he would ask me if I could drive him 25 miles to see his gf all of a sudden. I won't get into details, but in short she turned him against me, because she hated me, my attitude, and the way I dealt with life. I personally didn't care whether he was dating her or not, I respect his decisions as a friend. To be so easily influenced by someone you know for a such short peroid of time is ridiculous on top of the fact that he talked bad about her every chance he got when he was out with the "boys".
Today I just learned of another guy I know who was dating my aunt and now is married to her. A few months before they got married my aunt got totally trashed at a party and embarassed everyone there including him. I was with him outside talking and he was telling me about how he doesn't know if things will work out with her etc. I just stood and listened, told him that it's hard to change people if they are party poopers their whole lives. I found out today from my mom that she was talking shit about me that I said something bad about her to her husband. I can't believe how here I was, feeling sorry for the guy, listening to his problems, made a small comment, and he went and blabbered everything out to her later on.
So I ask ATOT this, what happened to the respect and camaraderie between guys? Is everyone just a big pussy nowadays or what? Do evil vaginas have such a big influence on you these days that you would give up good friends for them? Not stay true to yourself? I look at everyone I knew since elementary school, and I've realized that I probably stayed the most consistent with who I am since that time, everyone else has changed drastically, some for the better, more for the worse.
In a way it's good because you learn pretty quick who has substance and who doesn't, but in another way it's not good because your pool of friends is dwindling smaller pretty fast.
