    Yeap, I asked him that...But, i guess as mentioned by Watsblue, there is this girl that hovers him and does not allow him to talk to neone other than her friends...The other time, when we met at this accasion, and he started talking to me, in less than 3 mins she came over and whispered something in her ear and just dragged him away.....How rude, I was like Wat The -censored So, I don get ne oppurtunities....

    Okay, but is that his gf? And if it's his choice that he let his life be controlled by this girl, then I guess there's nothing much you can do.

    I mean, if he wants, he can tell the girl off and asks her not to control him, but he didn't, so I guess he's willing as well.

    In that case, since he chooses the girl over anything else, I guess your friendship has to take a back seat.
    And no point you are pining over it.

    Hmmm.... It sounds like you guys lost touch. It happens when people lose touch of one another. If you didn't lose touch, ditch him. Or confront him with nice words but with diff meanings like pretend to be sarcastic and say "you only come look for me when you have problems" and such. Give him the message that you are aware you're being used and you're not liking it.

    these people need to be ignored

    i had a friend who was one of these people
    but i didn't say it straight to his face
    i told about how i hated people who only cal you twice a year, and each time it's for favors


    you know how he replied?
    he said "i think it's perfectly fine, i mean if your are good friends, why wouldn't you want to help them"

    shows how good of friends you are if you only contact them twice a year

    thing is never stay with a friend that makes you feel uncomfortable around them like you know they are using you are just backstabbing you behind your back. dont even try to act your in good aquaintance with them.

    ^ Those friends aren't real friends at all. So no point helping them.

    Yeh, I think he is. Whether he's doing it intentionally or not is another story. Some people might just be socially in the dark about things like this and he's probably just asking for your help and feeling grateful that you're nice enough to lend a hand. Has he offered to take you out to lunch or something to thank you? And socially speaking, do you see him as the type of person that would know what's goin on?

    And, my cousin is kinda like this. She doesn't call or come over unless it's near her birthday or any gift giving holiday. Like, she hasn't called me in months untill two days ago. she called asking if I would give her my extra kickers and the whole nine... She didn't even have the nerves to ask me directly. She asked my sister to ask me... I was like, "Ummmmm, no..." I've got friends asking to buy em off me and I turned em down... Why am I gonna give em to her? Besides, they sound better in mah room than her car. >=D

    Nope, technically all he did was buy me 2 mini bars of chocolate....Well, i did confront him on msn but he did not change at all. He did apologize reluctantly but after that he made no action to keep in touch too. So, i got more annoyed.
    Psht......what is he talking about..Useless bastard do you still keep in touch with him.Mine said he was gonna call me but sigh havent heard from him at all not even a text...-what?
    He don even keep in touch what say asking me out for lunch....I could understand if he is a bit blur but i've confronted him once so no matter how blur one is i am very sure after being told you shud at least realise right???/
    And with your cousin you bloody well did the right thing..My cousin just borrow ma things and neva give them back 'technically self owning it' in the end. And when i lend their stuff, they bug be back for them..So, i really dislike ma cousins -whistle

    You should just say you don't have time for any of those. The more you keep helping, the more they will use you. It's like their taking advantage of your generosity. I was like you before and now I'm a total B for ignoring these type of people now. When they need something they call and act all sweet, but when they don't need anything, they act like you don't exist.

    i definitely get used
    there are so many people that are random jerks, dont care, or dont talk to me at all
    but when they want something from me; a car ride somewhere, help for homework, etc. they start acting like theyre my best friend
    soooo aggravating...
