best suggestion is try and get along because if you walk away from that group, you might lose your good friends as well and then things will get a lot worse!

beat him to the ground. make him bleed. taste his blood.

end of story. you get your friends back, and then you can make Rocky 6.

First, both a and b are letters.
Next, b only works if they are both smart. b can easily turn into a fight if you hate eachother as much as you say. Good idea if you won't fight tho.

wow thanks alot guys very helpful suggestions here

i really like that



i don't think i'll have a chance to talk to him but should i offer to talk to him first just to end the tension (i didn't mention we're in a silent war) then keep the relationship at a neutral level (just say hi once in a while but not hang out or talk alot) so tension goes down when me and my friends are around him?


but this will give him a chance to shut me down by walking away or saying get lost which will be really dry on my part


what would you guys do

that seems like a good idea.. this guys apparently a douche so unfortunately you're going to have to break the tension slowly. If he shuts you down then who cares, he just confirmed that he actually is a douche (which you knew already before) and you're back at the starting point, so nothing lost. Most likely however he won't be a douche and will respond to your "peace offering" lol

This kind of crap stopped after Grade 12, when all my buddies realized that we're no longer little children anymore and that it's time to grow up -- we're adults for frick's sake.

to the original poster: i've been in the same situation as you. my friend initiated arguments with me and said some rude things behind my back. slowly another friend distanced herself away from me as well because her best friend and i didn't like each other and eventually i just dropped all of them and made new friends. the reason for me doing so was because i knew that i deserved a lot better and i just wasn't happy with the way things were. you have to consider your values when making a decision like this because people will turn their backs on you even the ones that you think won't. think about the grad party, will you be comfortable with the fact that you will be going with other people. think about if it's truly worth it to drop them. do they make you feel upset? do they talk about you behind your back? personally, even after i lost 5 friends within a matter of a month or two, i think it was the best decision that i've made in a while. i get to hang out with people that i am happy being around even if i'm not that close with them.

also to others: regardless of how old you are, some people will be rude and have a "high school mentality". there are people that gossip in the workplace and there's nothing that can really be done about it. i think this usually happens because a) people get stuck with the same group of friends for a long time until the mentality sticks to them and they can't really change it unless they put hard work into it and b) people usually go from high school to university to the workplace which means that many people may still have that mentality because there were no years taken off to grow as a person or others don't allow the change to occur. i don't know if this makes sense to anyone else besides myself lol.
