I've got a nice list of stories where supposed "friends" completely took me down Fuck You Alley. I realized that those people weren't worth my time just like your "best friend". Seriously, Chris, write people like that off your list -- becoming stressed out over shitheads like them isn't worth your health or sanity.

You seem like a super nice guy. If you believe at all in karma, your karma will be paid back a hundredfold while the assholes will receive what they justly deserve.

Be strong! If you ever need someone to vent at, I'm here for ya.

I know i'd be bummed, but i'd also never expect that to happen from my "true" friends. If it was my close friends then i'd call them on it. Not sure what i'd do after that.

That's like learning that Julianna Hatfield hunts tigers.


I know. Lumped in with my pop music, French movies, and poetry books, watching pro wrestling is one of the few manly traits about me.

pro wrestling is definitely not manly to watch.

or fuck your friends over, they'd probably never guess it was coming from you because they've got you pegged as a door mat.

Let me try to explain my position in further detail for you:

I can't say my life has gone all that well from a social standpoint. I've never been popular, never been outstanding on any one level. It's hard when you try to be nice to everybody and yet have more than one person tell you outright to your face that they "don't even know you, but hate you anyway." I've lost track of the number of times I've heard the word "hate" used in a sentence describing me.

So anytime I've had anything that even resembled a friend I've held onto them almost to the point of being overly-loyal. And more often than not its resulted in situations like this. Blatant personality flaw, I know. I've spent my entire life shrugging it off using the old "that's life for ya" excuse, but after all this time the words have no meaning anymore.

I still have zero friends in my home town (pop 25,000) and most of the ones I have at school would best be defined as acquaintances. And I've been turned down by more women than I can remember (a kid I know challenged me to name as many as I could...he had me stop at 52).

But hey, tomorrow is another day and another opportunity for my luck to turn. The best I can do is try to make this all work for me somehow.

Chris, it sounds like you really have no self-esteem. It's hard at your age, I know. I think everyone on this board has experienced rejection so we can all relate. You will meet so many people in your life that it's really not worth your time or health to deal with assholes or people who couldn't care less about your feelings or well-being. Pretty soon, you'll be graduating and getting a job where you'll meet new people so hang in there. Life can be frustrating at times but part of life is learning how to handle issues such as these and moving on.

I'm with splates. Rule #1 is stop caring about them. Worry about your own damn self.

Making yourself happy and living with a little confidence can go a long way.

You're in high school or college? I've never heard someone use the word "hate" to describe the person they're talking to, especially outside of special cases like "you murdered my kid, I hate you." Sounds like you need to get yourself a good hobby, ditch these people, and start going to therapy.

Fifty-something women have rejected you? What're you doing wrong? I don't mean that in a shitty way, either. No one gets turned down that often without a reason. Take a look at yourself and then write a list of what you love and don't love about yourself. See what you can work on. I make lists like this all the time because I know that I have a lot of unappealing character flaws. Also, what kind of girls are you approaching?

But really, go to therapy. It's a great opportunity for some unbiased advice.

Your "friends" suck and stop asking out chicks until you have at least a decent idea if they like you or not.

And, move outta that little town. Once you get the reputation as the town putz in a place that small, it sticks. Go somewhere and start over.

Finish that engineering degree or whatever and get a sweet job and a sweeter ride. Sock away some cash and buy a pimp ass condo in a major city. Make friends with the poor. Be magnanimous.

And eventually, you'll be fucking alot of women, and tossing them aside like kleenex. You might even find a nice one to settle down with, but at that point, who the fuck cares, right?

Just ditch/dunp the assholes.
You do seem like a nice guy. You'll make more acquaintences and they will become real friends. Maybe these folks were fun to hang out with, but real friends don't pull shit like that.
You will make some real friends. And you'll know who they are.

Just kidding man, but you gotta put things in perspective. You've got a radio show and I'm sure, more friends... friends that treat you well. And what Fu said, fuck their girlfriends in the ass.

One thing I know for sure... when the chips are down, your real friends make themselves available. If this guy continually gives you the cold shoulder, you need to move on.

Also, have you even TALKED to him about this party? Was your non-invitation a total mistake on his part? Did he think he'd already mentioned it to you, but hadn't? Or did he purposely send you pictures from a party that he didn't want you to attend to piss you off? Communication is underrated sometimes. I should know. ;)

BUT with all that said... I get really frustrated with people who do nice things for people with the EXPECTATION that they should get something nice in return. Yeah, hopefully good karma will come back to reward you if you're good to people, but you can't expect that everyone will behave like you. If it bothers you, then ditch them.

maybe the party was full of heavy heavy drug consumption, and they thought you wouldn't approve.
