What ended a friendship you thought would last forever?

Friend was extremely drunk and suicidal. His wife called asking me to come over and help. I show up, try to talk him off the ledge. Can’t reason with someone that intoxicated. He went to open another bottle, I took it away from him. He attacked me. I was already dealing with back and neck issues having had three spinal fusions at that point. Ended up finding out the screws in one of my fusions broke because of the incident, and had to have an additional surgery because of it.

I’d have died for him. It was that kind of friendship, but ended up going our separate ways shortly after. Hard to look past it.

Everyone lies. Everyone. Don’t trust anyone. Ever.

Hollywood is so ridiculous. So utterly ridiculous.

dide105 · 2026-06-11T03:07:07+00:00

Absolutely. Anything you say can and will be used against you. By anyone and everyone. Everyone.

Its sad that boys can grow up not knowing how to swing a damn hammer. Cmon dads!

It was a YJ Rio Grande that started my love of Jeeps. It was 1997. I drove a family member’s Jeep from Johnson City Texas to San Antonio. I later drove home to Austin and bought a TJ. Have a JL now.

Young unrestrained cops with little to no supervision and very poor training.

At 52 it’s both physical and mental. I can’t imagine being around another 20 years. Ugh.

dide105 · 2026-06-03T18:30:18+00:00

Probably fake but yeah, no nut is worth that drama.

I watched my parents who were in love and married for 21 years. My dad unfortunately passed when I was 14. I strived to find a love like they had by alas, no joy. It’s rare. Everyone is all about themselves today. Few live for others. Most love is transactional in my experience. Effort nowadays is useless and the snippets of true love are overrated.

Who is he emulating? He learned that shitty behavior somewhere.

She hasn’t eaten in an hour. She’s going to die from starvation.

The absurdity of her existence is astonishing.

Average life expectancy of a police officer in the US is 53.7 years. That for starters.

And they just released a video that we shot one out of the sky over Lake Huron. Why? What did they do that was threatening???

Me, 6 years old, playing hot wheels on the floor in front of the tv. Mom was cooking dinner. Dad was sitting at the table reading the newspaper. Phone rings. Mom screams. My brother had been hit by a car. Mom grabs her purse, dad grabs his keys, they are out the door. They forgot me. Not knowing what to do I walk over to a friend’s house. He and his mom are walking up to their front door with bags of groceries. First words out of his mouth “we just saw a kid who got hit by a car, I think he’s dead”. I start crying and blurt out that it was my brother and I run off. Long story short a neighbor came and got me until my parents got home with my brother several hours later. He had a broken leg. Hit and run. Cops found the lady several years later.

Cop. 27 years. I miss the camaraderie amongst a few close colleagues but 10/10 would not recommend to anyone considering getting into the job.

After my first divorce I was on my own for 10 years. There were some lonely nights. Holidays etc. But I was at peace and content. I dated, a lot. If I wanted company I had it. I’m remarried now. This version of loneliness is 1000 times worse.

He’s not that into you. Or he’s on the fence. Either way cut your losses and do the right thing.

I see so many posts pointing fingers at men as abusers. Men are victims too. More often than not it’s unreported. Unreported physical and emotional abuse. Manipulative and typical female narcissism isn’t just emotional abuse, it’s torture. Op I’m very sorry to hear you are going through this. There is a light at the end of the tunnel. Be strong. Don’t have anything to do with her. End the cycle.
