friend?


Question Posted Friday February 8 2008, 10:35 pm

this isn't textbook abuse but, my guy friend always has to make it known
that i am stupid, ugly or w/e. he makes it his priority to smack me in the
head you know that "V-8" thing in front of ppl. like he's trying to break
me. I know this isn't that "oooo he likes you" cause he does it to every
girl that he's friends with, except one. sometimes all i wanna do is cry
becuase some of his comments are so rude and mean. i am so sick of it. i
wanna leave and not be friends with him but my bff girl is like "your just
being stupid he isn't that bad" ofcourse shes the one that isn't verbally
abused. what do i do???/ help me.

I think that if he is going to say mean and cruel things and verbally abuse you then he is not a real friend. One thing you can do is talk to him about it and tell him how bad it hurts you and hope that he treats you better! Another thing that you could do is just tell him that you don't want to be his friend anymore because of all the verbal abuse.
Hope I helped!

Talk to him about it. He might've thought he was just joking around with you but let him know that youu don't like it and wish he would stop.

hey got your feedback...

OK then well then it sounds like he's not a very good friend. Just talk to him about it and if you still don't see any results, i don't think he's the kind of friend you wanna be friends with.

Tell him driectly not to do it anymore. You should tell him all that you put in your question; it's mean, hurtful and you don't think its funny whilst others think so.
I disagree with the first person. Telling people to fuck off isn't the best way to do this because he could've been told this thousands of times and yet he still does it.
Tell him where you stand and to set boundaries.
Ignore what your friends say because it is your own personal life which he's spoiling and you should be the only one to decide about what you should or shouldn't do, nobody else can tell you that.
Tell your friend that it really hurts you, the way in which he treats you. Point out to her that she may find it ok, but you don't. Everybody in the whole world reacts differently to different things, and this is a classic case of one; one finds it funny whilst the other feels hurt.

I hope this helped,
triquetra

Is telling him to fuck off out of the question?

You should give it a try.

Obviously, he doesn't see how far his behavior has gone.

Take some action, and be assertive. He has no right to push you around like that.
