-- Posted by Anonymous at 7:40 pm on Nov. 17, 2008 I don't know what to do. I'm really frightened. This is going to be long, so please no rude comments or "TL;DRs" it's serious. My "friend"..ugh. I used to be best friends with this girl for a couple of years. Over the summer, she started hanging out with this other group more and more. I have no issue with that. But she goes out drinking A LOT. Now she and my other good guy friend were dating. He LOOVEEDD her. Almost obsessed. She never really liked being tied down, blah blah blah. but he's got a terrible temper and when she'd try to suggest a break, he'd flip. So she stayed with him, because she DID like him a lot..just maybe not as much as he liked her. She's been trying to get him to break up with her for a while, because she can't do it. He doesn't let her. Lately, he found out that on weekends sometimes she'd go out drinking instead of hanging out with him. And that on Sundays all of her work was loaded up. She had a lot of work. He just called her on the phone and held shit over her head about how he's joining stuff and how he "knows" she's been "lying". and then suddenly, he comes to me and starts acting like we're best friends again. even though he burned that bond a while ago. And I don't know what to do. And he got pissed. And he was trying to get me to call her and talk to her for him because her mom told him to stop calling. and I don't know what to do. He said something about shooting himself. And I don't know if he's serious or not. Sometimes I think he needs help. And I'm scared, because after I didn't respond for like two minutes online he was like "nevermind. fuck it. bye" and signed off. And I think he might do something irrational, I am not sure what. **EDIT TO MAKE IT CLEARER** I am afraid he may do something irrational like trying to kill himself or doing something stupid. Does anyone know what some of my options may be? Please don't be mean, I really don't know. -- Posted by Anonymous at 7:42 pm on Nov. 17, 2008 So me being afraid he might do something irrational like try and kill himself or make a scene or something is not serious enough for you?  Awesome. -- Posted by Nikoleese at 7:44 pm on Nov. 17, 2008 wow that intense. all you can really do is try to talk to him and make sure he doesnt do something risky. he probably just needs time to cool off and wont do anything. but i hope you can figure something out and all goes well... -- Posted by Anonymous at 7:44 pm on Nov. 17, 2008 Okay. Well.  I am most definitely not a troll.  It was a compulsion as I was posting.  I'm sorry that it turns you off from reading. -- Posted by ASIANRACER32 at 7:45 pm on Nov. 17, 2008 sounds like high school confidential, i believe that as topshelf said it's not serious enough to be taken seriously. Now if she was in physical danger it does not take a genius to file a complaint aganist him. But it sounds like they really need to grow up. -- Posted by RebeccaEmOkiss at 7:46 pm on Nov. 17, 2008 Hmmm....tough situation. Sorry, I got nothin. -- Posted by Lukerules12 at 8:19 pm on Nov. 17, 2008 the best thing to do here is talk to him. tell him that you are there for him threw this tough time. just like you used to be. everyone can be a jerk sometimes but that doesn't mean you should stop being his friend. he really needs you right now..
