You can hang out with him, but point out that he's apparently a douche now. Just do it in the two friends razzing each other kind of way. "What the hell happened to you? You go to AZ for a while, and now you come back with the bronze blonde highlight look? We've to help you out, now that you are back in California." Take him under your wing, and if he persists in being a douche, then follow megglo's advice and just distance yourself from him. You can still talk to his family. If they bring up you guys not hanging out that much, just tell them, that it's hard with schedules and you guys having different interests now, etc.
Don't hang out with him, the longer you hang out with douche bags the more you start to act like them.
well schedules could be hard and interests have changed slightly: his wanting to be a douchebag mine: wanting to not be close to or possibly associated with douchebags. as for those who say that i shouldnt worry what he dresses like and all: like i said in earlier posts he acted totally different towards me sat night and i got this weird vibe from him when we talked like he wanted to just get away..i dont know for sure until the next time we meet but i am gonna smack him if he does have the same popped collar style going on.
only douches factor how others dress to qualify friendship. If you're a cool dude, why does it bother you?
You should see him THIS season. He's grown his hair out to look like George Michael circa 1983 and has a Miami Vice beard. Plus it looks like he's been hitting the 'roids. Yes, I watch that GOD-AWFUL show. It's a guilty pleasure, what do you want from me...
Yeah I saw the episode where he's got on that furry beaver vest. Speechless. That crap's filmed in Austin too. Bravo is my guilty pleasure.
Yeah, people change. That said, they can change more than once. Make him into a casual acquaintance until he gets a little older and outgrows the DBag phase.
WHAT!!! There's another season?!?!?! HOLY COW I'M MISSING IT!!! Gotta watch that crap. It's priceless douchebaggery for millions to see.
Yes and the trainwreck is just as good this year as last year. I feel bad for the guys they get for the show and how socially inept they are at talking to girls, but it is something I can't stop watching. There were some painful rejections in the first couple of episodes. The only think doucier than his vests is his nickname......matador. Pair that with his furry vests and you have the uber douche.
link him to the douchebags with hot chicks thread, if he cant take a hint, then.... im all out of ideas
Yo, maybe it's the new chick in his life that's causing the douchemorphasis... If you're serious about getting your old friend back plot a scheme to break them up... there's a reason why he didn't introduce you guys to her.. maybe she has some sort of douchevoodoo on him.. he's crying inside for someone to help him... he needs your help!
Or the more obvious: after he broke up with his long-term GF, he changed his style because that's what the AZ chicks go after?
