I mean, when they start relapsing and talking nonsense, and its just never going to f&U*cking end. Do you hang in there as a good friend and deal with the crazy loop, or cut them loose?
Depends on the crazy and level. He wants to jump your pool on a modified CRF50? Cool. Wants to travel through the Ukraine on motorcycle during a war? Um, not smart but cool. Wants you to go to the bar with him while he talks shit to 1%ers? Nope, not gonna happen. Wants to start a group that storms some gooberment building and is trying to talk you into joining? See ya’, I don’t know ya’ and I’m changing my number!
If ya can't sit in jail with them after their latest fiasco, you're not really a friend anyway so, what's it matter? Get your life's entertainment somewhere else.
That's all cool shit! I'm talking mundane drama here. Stuff not even worth talking about, but I am a loyal friend. Just wondering where the end of my rope is.
At some point you just have to let it go, or at least let in flow in one ear and out the other. Just sit there and act like you're listening, but you're actually dreaming about your own life. Nobody wants to be an emotional tampon.
Stick around for as long as you can tolerate. Then add one more season of crazy just so when you do bugout your conscience will be clean.
