Friend Being An Asshole To Me

[Caldus]

Sometimes my roommate will act like a complete asshole to me and it really pisses me off. I've hinted many times that I don't like it when he gets all annoying and playful like some little child. He keeps doing it because it's funny for him. I really don't think it's funny at all and I've told him that as well. I don't know how to express myself to him without him thinking I'm joking or lacking any social skills. I think he's trying to hint that I don't go out much or something. Not a really friend the more I think about it, but he's gotten me into some very good habits and is definitely a good influence (doesn't smoke, smart, karate, etc.). He could kick my ass in five seconds. That is why I'm not going to try to kick his ass or anything. Anyway, I need help with this situation.

They like to upset you, they see you are emotional and they like to irritate you.

 

What can you do to stop the feelings of being irritated, other than stay away from them? Not sure!

 

Some Omega 3 tablets may help, they help me!!

Omega Tablet?

 

Why not Omega Himself?

 

What have you tried to solve this? I believe you should tell him in a serious way but not as an order though.

 

``I don't like what you are doing this and if you're my friend, I woud think you would respect that and stop doing it. I can't force you though but still I wanted to tell you.``

 

Most of the time, the fact that you leave them a choice will make quite a difference, good luck!

LOL - oh, I know people like this too...

 

Sometimes you just gotta say "Dude, I know different people find different things funny, but what you're finding humorous in this frankly annoys me; please give it a rest already! You're a cool guy, and I know you can kick my ass, please don't make me buy stock in Tylenol, ok?"

 

There's some people who need the equivalent of a brick over the head to even SEE a hint, you know? And he may well be one of them and think you're playing along, when you're irritated as hell
