This is so funny to me because my partner does the same stuff! His buddies are all in their 30s and have been friends since grade school. It’s gotten to the point where he complains to me about his friend who complains to him about some other friend of theirs. I keep telling him (and his friend) the fact they even talk about this dude so much means they still on some level care about him… even though they are always talking mad shit.
