    Just to let you know before reading this that this situation is not to serious and actually a bit petty but I just feel Like getting it off my chest so here goes:

    I used to live in the UK up until I moved to Ireland around the age of 13 (I'm now 19) back in the UK I had one real true best friend we were real close and always stuck together. After my parents moved us to Ireland me and my friend stayed in touch for until I was around 15 but it was like one phone call a year sort of thing. After that we lost touch, since turning 19 this guy has got in touch again threw Facebook and was sending me a tun of messages about we have to meet up for old times sake.

    So 2 weeks ago I went over to the UK to look at some Uni's and agreed to meet up with this guy everything went grand and the fella is sound but now (and I feel bad saying this) its like he is always contacting me and talking about how we are like brothers, and funny thing is when we were young he would act like I was sort of his sidekick and strangely enough he is at it again telling me I should do this or that what is good for me in life sort of rants. It just feels weird its like he sees me still as how I was as kid but to be honest Im completely different to how I was back than.
    In fairness to the fella as well I didn't really express any strong opinions around him as it felt like talking to a new person again. But he is all on about what we are going to do together when I head over to the UK.

    Sorry about the rant and I dont know exactly what Im gaining out of this but I just wanted to unload this somewhere

    Just tell him that you never got into the UK uni and you're going to study in Ireland instead.

    Respond every so often to FB messages if you want to - or just tell him that you're quitting facebook and block his account (again, if you don't want to have to keep in communication with him and don't want to hurt his feelings).
