Didn't really ask for it. Just kinda happened. I brought something up that a former friend should've not done in his past and he got all sensitive about it. Which is understandable if just apologizing to the person he affected is going to make his balls fall off.

As science has never needed to prove, humility doesn't threaten manhood. It actually makes you stronger. He doesn't realize this and now he's butt-hurt. Which is a damn shame.

The sad thing is that I know the dude is one of the smartest people around town. Not to mention he's a lot more compassionate and patient than people figure and he's honest. But letting ego get in the way and not realizing you're not always right can be damaging. I've dealt with this plenty.

In any case, a recent lash-out on his part (which I didn't prompt really if the last interaction was dropping off a record) is kind of inspiring. Don't expect anything from me because I'm still trying to be stable on my own but do understand that there's a lot more I've heard about the dude that I didn't bring up to him. And I probably won't. Because putting people down doesn't do anything for me.

If I do anything it'll be for myself, to myself, by myself and to only affect myself. It's up to him if he wants to be affected from hear-say. And likely, he'll think I do things to spite him. Even with the knowledge I had, I never wanted to spite him. I just felt the need to straight-up tell him after so long of trying to hear him out. Patterns are telling though. He'll strive and continue succeeding however. He always finds a way to survive.

But if obsessing over other people who are too busy to think about his existence works for him, then okay. That's cool, I guess. Best of luck, pal.

Also, I always tell myself that you have to be important to be hated... So I guess I'm important enough now! What a gift.
