I couldn't be friends with a needy leech like this.

It helps to repeat yourself and not answer detail questions that he should not be asking.

Example


Him: Are you busy tonight?
Me: Yeah I am, sorry.
Him: What are you doing?
Me: Busy, sorry..gotta go
Him: What time and for how long?

No answer from you...ignore....

My daughter dumped a boyfriend that did that to her. He was waiting for her when she finished work, and would come over and hang out until I threw him out at the end of the evening. Told her she needed to learn how to establish boundaries. :-) Eventually, she declared that she was tired of being smothered, and that was the end of him. To him, wanting to be with her all the time was his way of showing love. To her, it felt like he didn't trust her.

Strange response, if you ask me. You're complaining about how this guy wants you (another guy) to hang out with him and his girlfriend all the time and doesn't seem to have any boundaries. His girlfriend is also tired of hanging out with him all the time. And you're planning a vacation with them? Sounds pretty awful.

Because I like the guy and his girlfriend and enjoy our friendship, but don't want to hang out with them 24/7. For God's sake, are you not intelligent or do you just not understand?

Who's the gutless wonder who can't tell another MAN 'No, I don't want to see you 24/7'?

don't come in here insulting people you've asked for opinions. Everything you've posted makes you sound weak and too stupid to take up for yourself. I bet you 'give in' all the time.

You'll be hanging out with him 24/7 when you're on vacation, won't you?

You better do what you need to do to keep him as a friend. With your hateful attitude you probably don't have very many.

Wow, talk about hateful attitudes. Wanting to approach an issue sensibly with a friend is a hateful attitude?
