Tough Talk,
I have a group of friends and we’ve been meeting and getting together for years. We celebrate birthdays, holidays and all those times that make life precious. However, one of our friends is demanding that we call him by a new name, stay at least six feet from him and never make eye contact. Everyone is part of our group, but he’s just asking too much. If he keeps making demands on us, we’ll have to ask him to leave and none wants to do that. What do you think we should do? (Darwin, Nebraska)
Charlie,
Unfortunately that’s exactly what you’ll have to do and that’s kick this piece of crap to the curb. People change and often not for the good. It is an ugliness of our times. Who does he think he is making these types of demands? Tell him in no uncertain terms that his new behavior is not welcome and indicative of a sick and demented mind. If he doesn’t like it, there’s the door. No one likes a snotty surly simpleton. Don’t let him ruin time with your friends.
