Sadness and the modern betrayal

Another year.. another new blog it seems!

It seems like I only start a new blog when something big happens... or if I have time..

So, here it goes again, life is travelling rather strangely with my best friend going away and another friend becoming a nuisance.

One best friend is leaving the big smoke and living their dream - that's great - I'm happy for them: they'll be up the highway, but it's sad that I know that I will see her a lot less.

The other friend becoming a nuisance, well he is one that likes to provoke people.

First he brings up sleeping with a crush (like that kind of bullshit is something that you bring up during dinner) and then he likes to put you down while you're feeling down.


[Top of the list on Facebook's Likeness quiz for "thing you would do for a friend" is Lay off friend's crush. Obviously this person didn't take the quiz!]

So my question is, is the act of mateship dead? When does it become okay for one friend to sleep with another friend's crush (without you knowing) and then bring it up later and it's all meant to be alright?


[Any guy near that girl will get a strapping... the girl too!]

Surely we've learned from that Troy movie, other than all Greek people having six packs, that if you sleep with a chick that someone has feelings for that's how wars get started.

Not that I'm thinking of a war or anything - but what kind of compensation do you get for that?

Sure they can say, "well she's all yours now" - but do you really want to go there after your friend has been there?

    There's also another word to compliment the term "Nuisance".

    It's called hypocrite.

    Which is something the author of this blog has proven time and time again in front of his minute readership.

    Some facts need to be added into the story:

    a) The author has misconstrued statements to justify this whole issue. I'm not going to subject people to those statements except to confirm that knowledge is power and the knowledge that the author had, he used inappropriately to create his own disappointment. He should stop playing the "victim" game and accept he was wrong. Which I might add he never does. That's because he believes that being incorrigible questions the "status quo". It doesn't. It makes him look ignorant.

    b)It is acceptable to sleep with anyone who is single. To believe that because you have a "crush" on someone gives you the right to determine the will of others is just plain arrogant. A single male only needs the consent of a single female not his single friend/s. The author often cites people's right to hold different values and belief systems yet can't practice what he preaches on select issues. That's his problem and his alone.

    c) He dramatically overstates comments yet possesses a consistently selective memory which is verse to forgetting verbal efforts of his own that on a scale of "put-downs" was a 10 and which lasted longer. The put-down he refers to relates to boasting of a victory in a football game over his preferred club. There's an old saying. If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen. Clearly, the author can dish it out but cannot take it. "

    End of story.

    Thankfully the author won't have a lot to write about in the near distant future because he won't have anybody to feud with. His subjects of frustration will move on in their lives and pursue personal growth successfully. He will remain in his world and he'll do it alone. So be it.
