I claled him no answer his xbox live account said he was online 30 mins ago...

I'm pretty upset about this him and I always talked about how stupid it would be to join the military especially at a time like this (current country status) and he went off and joined without telling me.

Am I wrong to feel mad at him and at the situation?

I dont know how to confront him about it Hes not the military type hes just hit a bad slump in his life arrg idk please gimme some feedback

I'm not an army-supporter by any means, but try to remember that this isn't about you.

Wrong to not tell you if you really are friends.
Not wrong to join.

Agree

He knows exactly what you think about the military, and that's why he's not contacting you. He's embarrassed and/or afraid of talking to you. Why? Because he KNOWS that you will be upset with his decision. However, don't allow him to avoid you any more. Go to his house, find him when he's hanging out somewhere, whatever - just don't be a stalker. :)

Anyway, talk to him like you normally would at first, tell him you haven't seen him for awhile. When you ask him what's new, he might tell you what's going on with the military, or he might try to avoid it. If he tries to avoid the subject, casually ask him if he's going into the army, because you thought something on his facebook. Don't sound accusing or angry, just sound curious. Be cool about it. Don't be an asshole and demand that he tell you what the hell he's doing. Don't make evident your extreme disapproval and do NOT tell him that his decision is stupid. I can almost guarantee that your friendship will suffer if not end if you attack him.

Let him know that you support him, but you're surprised at his decision. Ask him what made him decide to go down that path. Be patient and listen to him.

Good luck, I wish you the best.
