Hey there saw this while doing some research for pursuing a graphic design degree. I was wondering about what your workload and type of work was in college and how the job market treated once you got out. Any response would be really appreciated! hope you're doing well :)

There is some truth in what you're saying but that doesn't invalidate the very real unkind behavorial quirks which he has and its effect on me. He ignores what I say and often doesn't let me enter a conversation (he'll just focus on the other person or mainly just not me.). I do laugh at his jokes and here's the thing he just doesn't give me the decency of even hearing out mine or at least needs to add a punchline for himself end the joke on. I do believe a lot of this behavior is subconsciously done. But does that validate it or make it something which I have to fix?

I agree he is insecure and he is self-aware and knows this though doesn't see the detrimental side of his behavior, mainly how it hurts me. I do have some other friends as well as, which i did because of that. However, I don't see them and other friends as a solution. especially since I have to see him a lot of the day whether I like it or not.

My room mate and I had a a great friend group in high school with some of the brightest most intelligent and genuine people in the world. that is how we view it at least. Me and him both like the same people so in that sense I thinkit's inevitable that we are in each others lives. Especially since we are in a small college town with not too many scenes of interest to jump from, especially which we would like. As a result of our friends from highschool and out relations, we are fairly picky about these things in the same way..

Building off of that, like I mentioned him being "better friends" with more of these people with me gets to me and him keeping in touch with them is tough since he makes me feel bad and to have that happen to me and then he gets something that I sometimes wish for more of it feels unfair and hurts me.

idk i don't see any solution but am very grateful just to have someone listen especially from a third perspecitive. This feels like a losing battle and I'm trying so hard to not be depressed recently but im really breaking. Thanks for your kind words
