Search Results: like best friend's brother

Have you ever made a choice that you know was the best option but still makes you review it from all angles still?

Normally I’m very decisive in my own life but sometimes when it comes to people I know for a long time, it’s not that simple because i value loyalty and connections. I had a best friend since high school and I thought we were going to live as brothers to the end but I had to filter him out of my life.

He was going in a direction with his life and I was moving in a different direction. I knew it was for the best and I did well but it makes me sad he’s still in the same position in his life after all these years.
Okay enough from me, let’s hear your stories!

Here’s the situation.

my little brother and I both need transportation to work, neither of us have our own car.
My mom has an SUV, she will give me the keys before she hands him the keys, Here’s why:

• I pay her.
Each time I get paid, she gets a piece of it.
He lends her money that she has to pay back.

• I’m more independent.
She has to take him to work, I’ve been driving longer, I can get there myself.
He can only drive short distances..

•Our reasons for working
I work to support the household & Save for my future, He works to buy weed because he’s an extreme pothead. & He only sees to himself.

•Our attitudes
I’m very respectful to my mom, she’s my best friend, we do argue, but I don’t disrespect her.

He’s extremely disrespectful.
She says when she drives him to work he doesn’t speak at all. He talks back. He yells at her, Slams doors, She’s admitted she wants him gone. She said she can’t deal with him. We’re polar opposites.

People may see it as unfair because he’s not her biological son, I am her biological son.
From the outside in, it looks like she’s playing favorites
