He also tried to bring up high school past around me, and I’m like “bro high school is over”. I then confronted him about his social media on how he makes fake accounts of guys/girls to reply/like to his own posts to make himself look cool and popular. He then got mad about it.

We were out the other day at a hookah bar and we were trying to split the money and he always try to pay less or don’t pay at all. I then confronted him in front of other ppl how much of a cheapa** he is and I left him by himself and move to another group to hang with. He was socially awkward the whole night. And he eventually gave me the other half of the money. The reason he had no choice was because he had no1 to drive him home and he lacks social skills/shy.

Is this a type of person who you should cut out of your friend group?

(no brag). Always wants me to show him their Facebook to ‘prove’ it. But I just know damn well that he’ll add them. And I don’t have to prove s***, and don’t care if he believes me or not. Last time I showed him my phone of a chicks number/text and he tried to copy her number in to his phone, but I turned my phone off.

I’m not the most assertive guy either, but that doesn’t make me an insecure asshat who tries to spit on his friends to make himself look better…

It is a common failing of childhood to think that if one makes a hero out of a demon the demon will be satisfied.

he’s shy and awkward around girls. When ever my friends and I are out with him he just remains silent and cross his arms.

You shouldn’t feel obligated if he’s more of  charity case then a friend, but you have to make that call.  I would recommend that you have a sit down with and let him know the things that annoy you, if you haven’t done that already.  He deserves a chance to change his behavior, or at least know why you don’t want to hang out with him anymore.

Ok. Then do it.

I don’t have a comment on the rest of it, because this kind of social friction is odd to me, but the sentence I quoted above stuck out. I tend to take the position and empathize with the WEAKEST in the group. If that persons is shy and socially awkward, I would make an effort to elevate them to our energy level – so to speak.

From his perspective, I could imagine he is out with “your friends and you” and perhaps he is more of a “bros before hos” type. I know I am. Nothing is more irritating when I am out with one of my purple-pill buddies and his attention is on two chicks that just walked in – mid sentence. He’ll drop what he is saying and doing and even change tables just to get a closer to them. He’ll stop chewing and answer his phone right there. If I wanted to hang with chicks, I would hang with chicks. He’s very pushy and “lets go talk to them” when I’m just not f~~~ing interested in that moment.

Im far from “socially awkward” and the life of the room actually. But when a guy is chick-obssessed or showing me texts some chick sent him, I am bored out of my mind with that s~~~. I find it silly. Do the chick stuff later and on your own.

I admit I have NO idea of the actual dynamic your speaking about, just illustrating a thought based on what you left here.

I then confronted him in front of other ppl how much of a cheapa** he is and I left him by himself and move to another group to hang with.

This is a little uncool, but when there are chicks around, a WHOLE NEW dynamic and guys butting heads takes place. I witness it all the time. A guy who would never jab at me in private will now joust because a girl is present. Im prepared for it, so I will jab back and make it funny. He doesn’t like it much, but his girlfriend is amused by it…. and if he wants it to stop, all he has to do is knock it off with the c~~~-of-the-walk bravado s~~~.

If you keep doing what you've always done... you're gonna keep getting what you always got.

Dude, really? Anyone that would drop you like a bad habit over person social prestige, or the appearance of some strange pussy, is not the kind of person you let IN “YOUR GROUP” of friends in the first place! I don’t have blue pill friends, I can’t stand the company of pussy-whipped cowards! I also don’t waste my time perusing pussy with my friends, we like to do exciting things, like skiing, motor sports, or restoring old cars, bikes, or whatever! Wasting my time and ruining the quality of my life on the nonsense and drama of nutso inflicted women, is the last thing I ever want to do…. I’d rather open all the draws on my 6ft tool box, and let it fall over and crush my head!

One of his favorite things to do was to dog on any woman that I was bangin’, or try to dog me in front of any woman that showed interest in me when we were out at social events. Worst f~~~ing wingman that ever walked the earth. He’d end up settling for any hairy-pitted horseface that would give him the time of day, and whine to me about it when she screwed him over in whatever myriad of ways happened. Got himself kicked out of his own apartment because of one of these bitches, and a month later he’s tellin’ me how she was just misunderstood and back up in that s~~~, and everything’s cool now.

Told that guy to get lost. I don’t regret it for a split-second.

I roll with 2 red pillers and have a great time wherever we are.

pussy whipped dudes just waste my time either chasing pussy or dealing with their estranged one. Not my problem! Why would I want to hang around a guy that has a curfew or an electronic leash (cell phone) when I want to go out?

I had such “friends/familiars” when I was a kid, long long time ago. Learned fast to filter out. Have only 5 people that I can honestly call friends now. And 2 who I can call my best friends. Everyone else is a familiar or a person I don’t want to know or care at all.
