It's sad when your friends make really bad decisions

[FreightTrain]

I have a friend who is a complete doormat when it comes to women. I could never figure it out because I've always considered him a fairly intelligent person. Two years ago his relationship ended with a control freak and, naturally, he wasn't the one to end it. She drove his car over 100 miles out of town and left it and everything else behind. Call me crazy, but I would call that a learning experience. If I were him, I'd never date anyone who manipulated me like that ever again. It's 2 years later and now he seems to be making the same stupid mistakes in life. He's been dating a lazy whore for a little while and I'm not calling her that to be disrespectful. This is what I've been told by others who have known her. She worked at Office Max for a week and quit because she didn't feel like working there anymore. Oh yeah, she's a mother of 2 young girls and has dated his ex in the past. Apparently, he has a thing for unattractive bi-sexuals, but I think it's more of a situation that he takes whatever nobody else wants. I moved away from where my friend lives about 2 and 1/2 yrs ago and I found out via Facebook that he's engaged to this piece of trash. I don't agree with everything my friends say or do, but I have a hard time pretending to be happy for him just because he's happy to settle. I found out a lot of the background info on his fiancee from another friend whom was her roommate for a short while. I know there's not much I can do with his situation. He claims to be happy just as he claimed to be happy with the last one who slept around and left him high and dry. I just find it hard to resist leaving sarcastic comments on his Facebook page. I don't want to be an asshole, but anyone with an IQ higher than an ice cube can see he's making a huge mistake.

I've seen this happen before to people. But honestly, trying to get in the middle of their soon to be marriage can't have good results.

People fall back into what is comfortable to fill voids..

This is why you should take a break and review your life, but most don't..

Some of the worlds most powerful and intelligent people make these similar mistakes.. Nothing new here and nothing much you can do..

Some people just need to learn or live their lives the same way until the light bulb comes on.. Sometimes it never clicks..

I have a friend identical. He knows how I feel though. My best advice is to pray the girl leaves him before marriage. My friend was blinded. Everyone is his life tried to make him see sense but he just but he just fought us all. Maybe he would have seen her for how she was if we had all backed off *shrugs*

It is sad. I have a friend who picked up everything she had to move across the country, leaving everyone she knew back home to be with a guy who was a heroin addict, is a compulsive gambler and who wouldn't even talk to her for a year after she had moved there. Now they live together, can't get married because of course this loser is way behind in child support and it would attach to her salary.

Christina is a vivacious redhead, good body, smart, very able to do lots, works on her own truck and she makes good money as a paralegal but her last boyfriend hit her and she stayed with him a year.

I just sigh and hope she sees the light but I aint holding my breath.

It's terrible. I never said a thing about his ex and he'd still be dating her if she hadn't abandoned him. This relationship is no better than that one, but he acts like he's blind. I was married to a control freak, but I analyze things, periodically. After 2 years of marriage I wouldn't put up with it anymore and we separated. I've moved onto greener pastures, but he's making the same mistakes. I've been holding my tongue, but it's irritating to watch it happen to a friend.
