Fauxie said: susannah said: I had a friend like that  We just had to cut it off in the end  We're getting close to that. The problem is that I came home and that evening wrote an email to him saying how annoyed I was with his sarcastic comments. It then turned into a slanging match in email as it always does, despite us both agreeing just days ago that we'd let things like this go. This guy never admits he's wrong and his wife always validates anything he says. I love him, I really do, but he is the most challenging person I've ever been friends with. It's funny, he's Mon's ex-husband and he then married Mon's sister only to break up with her. That surprisingly has never been an issue for us, yet when we get together and drink we just start taking little digs at each other and it all becomes so uncomfortable. The last time he was going to the border and we tagged along and he made us pay half the gas even though we didn't need to go. I said something like "It's a good thing we came then" when he was filling up the tank and it all kicked off.  This time I was minding my business on the internet and he just started having a go. I couldn't face 4 days at his house feeling so uncomfortable so I left. Now I'm stuck home alone as Mon's out enjoying the Songkhran festival, but I wouldn't change a thing. We'll make up, but I'm glad I left.
Really off topic here, sorry. Like talk of Bens mum is on topic! 
I hear ya...me and my friend were fantastic in the beginning, but we kinda put too much pressure onto each other, and it was like being in a romantic relationship, where you say there was too much passion, we had great times and fought loads!
We're speaking now, but we don't see each other. Neither of us needs that drama Rock n roll baby | |

Really off topic here, sorry. I think it's cause it's Friday the 13th. Right, so now the thread's back on-topic. I had a friend like that. I cut him off. The police haven't found his body yet. Fair enough, although I think you'll find the topic is now your mother. Bev, can we get this thread moved to the one that has the org invasion threads? Thanks. | |

We're speaking now, but we don't see each other. Neither of us needs that drama Yeah, we're kinda like that. I understand where he's coming from, and his life has been bloody hard so I take it all into account. He's a peculiar case as far being friends with him but I've always felt he's a good guy who's there for me. He thinks of me as a little brother, and to be honest we're the only western friends each other has out here. I just wonder if this continues how we can keep going on. It starts to get awkward, like you have to think all the time about if you're saying or doing the right thing, feeling like the other is really sensitive and it could start at any time. It's just hard work and I wish it wasn't. | |

Superstition. Illusion intended to elevate our collective status of importance above that of other animals, plantlife and all nucleus possers of all shapes, sizes and counciousnesses in inner and outer space. We think we're so fucking special that luck and fate exist. Embarassing nonsense and an insult to every common ancestor buried along the way to our species' current state of evolution. A pillow for morons. You're going to die and not exist ever again until the universe folds back upon itself. So get up off your fat finite arses and shag everyone you meet because it might be your last ever chance. Nihilisexy!  Oh yes!!!!  | |

Really off topic here, sorry. ARe you SUUUURE there is no underlying jealousy from him? I mean, even if he doesn't admit to it, would you be friends with your ex wife's hubby? I sure the fuck wouldn't. | |

Really off topic here, sorry. ARe you SUUUURE there is no underlying jealousy from him? I mean, even if he doesn't admit to it, would you be friends with your ex wife's hubby? I sure the fuck wouldn't. Yeah, I know it's atypical, putting it mildly, but it's definitely not that. I mean, when I came out here and hooked up with Mon they'd been divorced for a few years. They have very similar personalities - emotional, confident, opinionated - and it's clear why it didn't work out. For me, I never had a problem with it because I knew his intentions were good. Ok, so when I arrived on the scene and he was with Mon's sister everything was peachy. I'm not totally cool with how things ended between them and his part in that, but I've maintained the friendship as I believe him to be a good man at heart, and he's always been there for me. Putting myself in his shoes I don't see any jealousy there. I can see why both relationships weren't right for him and I can see why in so many ways his current relationship (he's remarried and she's expecting a baby, due on the 1st of May) is a better fit for him. I don't think he has many regrets about it and certainly no jealousy.
So, I am friends with my ex-wife's hubby. Was that directed at other people? That plays no part in it for me. I don't think I'm perfect by any means, but I must admit I do feel like most of the time I don't start these problems. I'm easy going and I've only ever had one argument with any other friend besides him in my entire adult life. He has a very revisionist way of looking back on how things went down and it's virtually impossible for him to accept blame for anything. I know for a fact that my conciliatory ways are keeping this thing together. There's just something combustible about us when we get together, and especially when we're drinking. The history of him being with two women in this family and then breaking up makes our relationship tough, but when it's just us hanging out that's not a problem. Right now I'm just going to knock it on the head again and not make a big deal out of it. I'm not sure how long I can keep this up though. | |
