So I have this friend, but I kind of feel like he's using me to talk to and easily socialize with. I don't feel like my advice has any value to him. He has a sick bird and I've given him advice, but he doesn't do anything until the vet says something. They he goes around seeing vets that I told him were bad, but apparently he had to learn for himself. He is in his 50's or 60's and doesn't have a job. He get's 10k/ year from SSD, has his electricity paid for by the state, gets food stamps, and has Medicaid. I don't mind all that so long as he's actively trying to get off of it. He abuses systems like a mother fucker and this pisses me off. It makes everything more expensive for the people who actually pay. He'll order a book on Amazon and scour it for problems, so he can complain and get it for free because it's not worth it for the business to exhange it. He wanted new orthodics, but Medicaid doesn't cover them, so he got Blue Cross Blue Shield for a month, got the orthodics, then cancelled it. He has depression and anxiety which is how he has SSD. Last year he pretty much got it under control. He started taking classes from Tai Lopez, but he's dumb about it. He isn't learning anything useful. I've learned everything he has and more from this forum. I'll give him suggestions and he'll say they are good, but won't do anything about it until someone else suggests it. He feels that Tai Lopez is his good friend. It would be one thing if he did all this and at least tried something, but he didn't. After all that he said that social media marketing isn't for him and that he's going to start flipping houses. Maybe I just missed how dumb he is before, but apparently he's a moron.
So anyhow I'm tired of this bs. I've finally had enough. Now I see exactly why people can only stay in his life for a couple of years. He lives in his own little world where he says he's left politically and cares about everyone, but he really only cares about himself. And our friendship was there for me to listen to him like a therapist except for free. I'm tired of it. The question is should I ignore his calls from now on (he will keep doing the same thing for sure this way) or should I send him an email to try to get him to change (he might become a better person this way, but I also might waste more time on him).
I've already written part of the email I want to send him, so I'll attach that in a few.
