Not Your Average Jane

So I just got off the phone with a friend of mine, after half an hour listening to him bitch and complain about the female species.... I usually don't mind listening to my friends rant and rave, cause I've done it to them a time or two.... But with him its the same rant... Ever since his divorce became final last year, hell before that even... He's complained about women... When he was single, he wondered why he couldn't get a date, when he had a girlfriend he wondered if she'd leave him for another man, or woman even. When he was married that insecurity multiplied.... It had hand in causing the divorce, I think. It caused the woman he married to cheat... She found another man that wasn't so insecure and could trust her fully... Which I can understand. But my friend won't believe it had anything to do with his issues with trust. When in fact, it had everything to do with it... But yeah, so he's an extremely embittered, insecure man on the way to being a recluse and I'm feeling that as his friend, I'm helpless to prevent that from happening. I think he might just have to deal with it himself, because as much as I adore him, he's never listened to my warnings about his attitude and he's not about to start now... So as much as I hate to do, I might just have to let him deal with this on his own since I have so much other stuff on my plate at the moment, I don't think I'm equipped to deal with his stuff... I'm tempted to call him back and tell him to see a professional... I might just do it, cuz its the last semester of MY senior year and I refuse to get caught in any sort of drama... So yeah, I'll be here for him, but I won't let him berate me for being a female just because he's got problems with himself... Yeah, its not like he's going to read this so I suppose I'll HAVE to call him back and tell him this... Dude, I'm nobody's scapegoat.... :0) Thats all for now... Laters!
