    Going unreg for this..


    I'm a 17 year old male in 6th year, from Dublin.

    Recenty, I've been out of school due to sickness alot, and my friend has been annoying me a great deal about it.

    He's a very sarcastic, annoying guy at times but call me weird but that's why I'm friends with him. He's just witty and easy to get along with. Lately though, he's been half attacking me about me being absent so much. It's come to the point where all he does is say things like, "Do you realise that you've not had a full week of school yet?" or, "You're just plain lazy!"

    It's really getting at me, to the point where I don't even see him as a good friend anymore. Just a very annoying acquaintance! I've been friends with this guy for over a decade, but all I want to do now is just go make new friends..

    PI, what should I do?

    :(

    How can anyone advise you? Maybe he's right? Maybe he's annoying? Maybe he's wrong? Maybe you are growing apart, as friend often do?

    It's really not possible to offer advice except to say that maybe you should talk to another friend about it, someone who is aware of the situation.

    Tell him to STFU complaining about what you do with your time.

    Maybe you're his best friend too and he's frustrated that you haven't been in school that much and he's (wrongly) taking it out on you? School isn't the same when your friends aren't around ..

    I can totally empathise with you! I have that friend who I want to smack around the gob most of the time but I still hang around with her. I think it's because we've been friends for years and now the rest of our mates have gone and we're back in school repeating that I still talk to her as much though. She also wrecks my head about never going to school (she's worse than the principal!).
    The only thing you can do is laugh it off or hang around with your other friends that he wouldn't have a lot to do with. Believe me, after school, you don't tend to see your mates that much anymore as you make new ones in college and that.

    Good luck!
