So I have a really close friend. He's handsome, confident, and a hit with the ladies. I am a stark comparison to his success with girls. I'm a stark comparison to his success in general. I'm awkward, I'm still a virgin, I've been single for going on two years, and girl generally are uninterested in me. Even though my best friend and I have these differences, we are still very similar. We like the same games, music, movies... girls. Time after time, I'll find a girl I'm interested in and he sweeps them up. This last time he told me "Don't go after her, she's not ready for a relationship." And then proceeded to date her only a week after that encounter. I didn't say anything, I just let it go. It's happened many times before but I think I've just given up. I keep telling myself it isn't his fault but I know it is.

    Your friend sounds like an ass and you sound like a dumbass. I would be pissed about this and he sure as hell doesn't respect you. I dont know what is wrong with you but you would be better off without him around. Tell him that his behavior is fucked up and if he argues he is only being manipulative.

      He's my only close friend. He doesn't even seem to realize he's doing it until he has already done it. The worst thing is, he doesn't argue, he just looks back on what he did, realizes he was a dick and apologizes and we start hanging out a ton again until it happens again. Every time I think about being angry, I just remember how many times I really needed him and how lost I would be if he wasn't around to have my back. I'm terrified that I'll lose him.

        In any friendship it is necessary to establish boundries. If you don't, you will have problems. Just because somebody has helped you, doesn't give them the right to take advantage of you. If he didn't realize what he did, he wouldn't keep doing it. Fucking up the same thing multiple times is simply unacceptable. Why are you so needy? Are you really so bored that you will hang out with someone who fucks you over? Obviously if you let somebody get away with no consequences that will only see that as a reason to do worse things.

    Your friend sounds like a selfish asshole for dating that girl one week after he told you she wasn't ready for dating. Unfortunately, there's a lot of these types of people around.
