Okay guys, I have this “friend” who acts very strange and very feminine by getting defensive anytime you criticize him and always trying to argue. I cut him off one time but he kept bugging me and trying to apologize so I gave him the benefit of the doubt to change.

To start off, this dude is pretty negative all the time and he doesn’t have much going on in his life. Anytime I talk to him or I’m on the game w him and my good friend he’ll try to put me down and play it off as a joke or something, never really bothers me tbh but I don’t like when people “play around” too much. It’s not even me that he’s always negative towards either, he’ll hate on literally anyone somewhat famous for accomplishing something and people we know in general. Another example is when he quit playing basketball, and when he saw me doing good he tried to say that I suck and he sounded pretty hateful like he’d just been waiting to say it.

To add on top of that, this dude always wants to copy me or my other friend for some reason. It’s like he wants to fit in so bad. Occasionally, If one of us post something on social media he will literally copy the exact same post and act as if it was his.

I don’t wanna go on all day about this dude, but I’m considering cutting him off altogether for the better of myself. The only thing is that I’ve known him since middle school we got memories from when we’re younger and he’s alright sometimes but I’m really wondering what your guys opinion is on this.
