No kidding. I can't even get the chat panel to close on my cell phone. Keeps moving around and around, until my battery dies. Don't see how I got anything to post on here at all.
Hi CC.
I was going to post 4. find out what makes him laugh
but the more I thought about Tesseract's reply, to find some way to focus on fault with him, then make him work to change your opinion, that could work.
A. can you ask around and find out specific things he did to hurt other friends or
B. find out what he is working on and why, like if he does support a certain political or charity cause for public service
then you could confront him and ask him about this. such as if you do meet casually here and there to study with a group together, then you bring this up:
such as asking him I wanted to ask you something. I heard from A that you did Z, and didn't think you'd do that. That you must have other reasons or explanation.
I checked with B and C and they said the same. I thought you were better than that, and I really admired you, even thought I had a crush on you. But now I see it looks more and more like manipulation. Really? And the work you are doing with Y, I really thought that was commendable. Is that just to look good too?
I was disappointed to hear from even your best friends you treat people this way. That you think you're better than everyone else, is that it? Why do you do this? Is there a reason you try to keep your distance from others? Even your own friends?
I think you should find a way to communicate your feelings in a way he will only understand if he cares, and then let go.
You should also search the internet for inspirational quotes like this one from the Joker: "I'm a dog chasing cars. I wouldn't know what to do with one if I caught it."
