    Going unreg for this guys

    iv had a "friend" for the last 5yrs. He is a guy who is totally insecure about himself and tends to lie about everything just to impress... He will lie so much just so we, his friends, think he is a cooler person (or whatever you wanna call it), He is totally unreliable, If he says he'll call up at 6 he wont turn up till 8 or 9. Anything he says, in relation to time anyways, i just dont believe

    He also has a need to be with girls... If he goes clubbing and doesnt score he will through the biggest tantrum and just go home... Its ridiculous

    He always seems spaced out and in his own little world... You could be talking to him about a serious issue and he would crack a joke that was totally un called for and then if you were to try and explain to him why it was uncalled for he wouldnt understand. he is INCREDIBLY immature for his age (21)

    He called me at 4am the other night steaming drunk and said he had ran out of fuel... I told him where he could go as he drink drives quite alot and TBH id like to see him be caught for it!

    I just can take him anymore... The icing on the cake was the other night when we were at my girlfriend birthday party. In the taxi home it was just him and my girlfriend and 6 of her friends... He didnt score at all that night and was pissy as usual. The girls were having a cafufle about paying for the taxi or something he then proceeded to say "X(My name) thinks yer all bitches anyway". He said it completely out of spite cos he didnt score (through no fault of myn)

    I just can take him anymore and i want to cut him out of my life, He is trying to apologise but i dont wanna hear it, friends dont treat friends that way... Am i blowing this out of proportion

    I think all of this has been building up over the years and its coming out now!

    Who knows though what underlining issues he may have which could be making him insecure and behave in such an immature manner. His immatureness and lying could well be a defensive mechcanism acting as a barrier to his true self.

    Is there any particular reason why this person is worth keeping around? Or wouldn't you just be better dropping him like a bad habit?

    IMO, theres meant to be a point somewhere in your late teens or early twenties where some people will snap out of the childish antics and grow up a little bit more over time. But some people just don't seem to get to that stage or they regress - a flatmate of mine was 26, and acted like he was 17. Only recently did I ever understand that his fiancee had gotten into some car accident a year or two back and after that she barely knew him and she had completely changed.

    For those that havent matured yet at all, they just havent reached the point where they recognize they need to grow up. In this case, your buddy might do good by getting left out of the loop till he grows up a bit.
