Wtf is wrong with him?

[Anonymous]

I have a friend who, in the past, has downplayed smaller things like my fitness goals (although they’re very important to me, especially since I make money from them, I am aware many people might consider them trivial). That has always annoyed me. Now bigger issues have come up, like when I was bullied out of a workplace, and guess what? He still doesn’t consider that a big deal! Even though I got broke because of those events. I could give numerous other examples. Basically, his vibe is always like, 'You think too much,' or 'Why do you care?' and so on.

You may ask why we were friends to begin with. He’s a mathematician, so he’s obviously quite smart, and regarding other aspects, his advice often works.

He sounds like he wants to diminish your experiences and invalidate your feelings. Best walk away from this type

Thanks. I already though I am indeed overreacting

[Shiprex]

I don't think you are. He's TELLING you that you're over reacting when you're absolutely allowed to have the feelings you do and are allowed to feel them. Dismissing and invalidating someone because it makes HIM uncomfortable is a shitty thing to do.

We also had a lot of good times, and he is generally helpful about many things (for example, legal matters), but he always had this quality of not understanding when I was upset about something. Some time ago, a girl was harassing me at work, and he said, 'Why can’t you just ignore her?

[Shiprex]

I think he's being insensitive about some things that you want to be validated and that would be a kind gesture to allow you to EXPLAIN why you feel bad rather than provide a solution to no longer feeling bad in future.

Wtf is wrong with you is the real question. Why you would keep interacting with someone like this is beyond me

[Zylos]

You are not obligated to spend time with him.

Typical asshole!
