If your friend consistently tries to dominate a conversation with his intelligence; in a clearly self-righteous way, and downgrading your knowledge When you are talking, they immediately turn there heads in another direction; not trying to look at you Mock your goals, intellect, and thoughts because they aren't the same as theirs or they don't approve Put down your way of living as if there's is better because they think so Talks to another adult (who is there friend) as if they are there superior, father, big brother or mentor; acting as if the other adult is not in fact an adult but an in-experienced, foolish, empty headed person Yes, I could probably come up with much more. I am living with a friend currently, because of the economy, and have taken sharp notice of the said signs; and now I loathe his presence. I think well, what do I do? LEAVE, OF COURSE!!!! However, I fought it and found a job. So now I will be out the door asap, hopefully I can make it;(with sarcasm) because I am 25 and highly coursed and astute with independence, but since I was talked to like I was a child maybe not!..(yeah right) Hello
This message is in regards to the ‘bad friend’ signs article.

If your friend consistently tries to dominate a conversation with his intelligence; in a clearly self-righteous way, and downgrading your knowledge

When you are talking, they immediately turn there heads in another direction; not trying to look at you

Mock your goals, intellect, and thoughts because they aren’t the same as theirs or they don’t approve

Put down your way of living as if there’s is better because they think so

Talks to another adult (who is there friend) as if they are there superior, father, big brother or mentor; acting as if the other adult is not in fact an adult but an in-experienced, foolish, empty headed person

Yes, I could probably come up with much more. I am living with a friend currently, because of the economy, and have taken sharp notice of the said signs; and now I loathe his presence. I think well, what do I do? LEAVE, OF COURSE!!!! However, I fought it and found a job.

Comments like that really do make the writing worthwhile. I often wonder whether this blog actually does any good but then every so often I get a comment or an email that convinces me to keep writing. Thank you for that. As for being a lost and confused person I have to tell you that you are actually in a really positive situation. Why? Because you are questioning the world, you have tasted dissatisfaction and now you are in a very workable place. Some people spend their whole lives asleep, you are in the perfect place to start becoming a better person. Good luck. We'll always be here for support and motivation. TDM Nikki.

I am sorry to hear about that. Can you give any more background? Why do you think they are acting like this? Do you think they just are forgetful or do you think there is some riff between you? TDM Hi Private.

I want to ask a question really quick-style and its deep- I know I can do that if and when I just do... I feel in limbo more than ever these days but when I realized my family (kids and all) just dont care, they choose to ignore me completely or critisize and almost strip me from feeling any dignity whatsoever. I can be in the hospital, no one calls, no one wants to pick me up... On thanksgiving I was sick (had been since nursing 2 of my kids' and their families back to health)they didnt call, they had planned something I wasnt invited to,(my sister mentioned that to me) but I had dinner thanks to the church in our neighborhood! I had a good thanksgiving,I truly was thankful and happy for their care. it wasnt until days later as I thought of the fact I struggle to buy groceries, my family knows but even though they had a big thanksgiving party, they completely left me out! BUT never called or thought to see how I was doing, they know I cant possibly have much food at the end of a month... This all seems very cruel, and yues I am whining, I realize theres good reason too, I JUST CANT live this way! I have such a time getting this in any perspective, I realize I really have done something that they just dont care. I am finally at a loss to the point I must find a way to go on alone from here on. Seems so wierd to just leave !? Im disabled, single,lonesome and just plain sad. Yes I liked the post very much. I want to ask a question really quick-style and its deep-
