  • so far i met quite a few people through playing pokemon go
    incl a cousin i had not seen for 15 years.... I thought he and i were gonna become close, for first time in a long time somebody was showing interest in me first instead of the other way around... i was impressed with life cutting me some slack. We were having fun, met up a lot, we went to the beach with others for pokemon, a lot of laughter and kindness between us two i thought.

    Yesterday, everything changed between us, very quickly and very stupidly too.

    We are all in this one big whatsapp group chat, only people from my city. The owner of the chat, let's call him dickhead - why will become clear in a sec - is a cheater when it comes to playing pokemon go, he got banned too and basically was a frustrated idiot, now selling hacked accounts to others. He got into an arguement with others because, well ain't it obvious why and later on he kicked one of the people out who was argueing with him and then others left the chat too incl me. Why i left is not only because i do not care to be in such a group where the leader is an asshole, he also insulted me for no good reason and after leaving the group chat without saying anything, he insulted me again, someone showed me a screenshot.... the guy is crazy i tell ya.
    ANYHOW, i told my cousin about it, thinking he might care for that and was trying to find out what he thinks of the guy, mister dickhead. I told him i could ask the new group, that was created by others, if he could be added too. I also said ''if you going to stick around in that group with that loser i will be kind of disappointed in you big cousin'' laugh/crying emoticon attached. True those words but i was obviously joking which is also why i attached the emoticon, i mean, it is for him to decide who he wants to stick around with and who he wants to ''follow''.

    My cousin went nuts. He was very much offended by me saying that, he didn't found it funny, he thought i was telling him what to do, trying to tell him to leave the group or else..... and i was not at all. I tried to explain to him i was only saying my opinion and that it was a joke, perhaps not a funny joke, but a joke. No, even me trying to explain in a mature way did not help, he gave me a big mouth twice and for what? Told me to get a life and few other things that were disrespectful as hell... and again, for what? Because he thought the joke comment wasn't funny?
    #toomuchpride #angerissues #hypocrite

    Hypocrite? Why?
    He told me more than once i take things too serious sometimes, especially his jokes, how i need to be more fun. :|
    Seriously? Some of the jokes he made were rude as hell, i shall not give examples because its ridicilous... and i just had to laugh and not care about anything?
    Then i make a freaking silly joke about how i would be disappointed in him if... and i get talked to like i'm some sort of criminal who attacked him? Only reason i said it was because i wanted my new friend, my cousin, to even care a little bit about me and he did not at all. Well to find out people their true colors, better sooner rather than later.

    This was not the first time i damaged his pride though, two weeks ago, we were talking about how he cheated once on a girl he was in a longterm relationship with and i said that kind of behaviour, cheating, is what players do.... and he took it as i was calling him a player and he was immediately offended as well, going in defense and talking weird to me like i was attacking him. Well excuse me for speaking the truth, especially after him asking me; Hey, you have never cheated? do not tell me you have never cheated... Like everybody does it and it is a normal thing to do. After him saying that i lost respect for him instantly but because i did not wanted to lose something i thought was great, i yet gave him a second chance and ignored it and went on having fun with him

    I just cannot believe how something, a family reunion, starting to become a beautiful friendship, at least i thought it was, can turn from yay to nay so quickly, coming out of nowhere. It is ok if you do not like a joke but then why become so agressive? If you are offended by something i said fine, tell me, but be mature about it. For crying out loud, it is not like i actually did it on purpose or said something that was mean or rude really. it was innocent.

    We were planning on watching a movie together this saturday night.... well after him being so agressive with me, giving me a big mouth twice for no good reason, i told him he can basically suck it, saying i am not taking the risk of coming to his house, i might say something innocent again, he takes huge offense and gets agressive with me in person.... i ended my message with; enjoy your evening and maybe we meet again sometime. He being annoyed i beat him to it, cancelling saturday night, he had to say; like i give a shit if i never see you again... That's funny considering he was very interested in me before, wanted to get to know me better he said and first thing he wanted to do is hang out with me when he came back from his holiday..... Anyways, i did not reply again to him after his last rant.... i could of said so much and told him the truth how he is being a hypocrite but what's the use with people like that.... He would of taken more offense even with facts/truths in his face and it would be an endless battle where he only gets more agressive problably because he only wants to his own truth.

    I do understand now why he told me before he used to be a troublemaker and he did things he is not proud of. Damn, said to me he is trying to change, yeah right. Changing my ass.
    i guess you gotta have it from your family huh...... :|

    He likes how i met your mother and is a barney wannabe, so this one is for you cousin...

  • Damn that really sucks. I recently met up with a bunch of family and I got along really great with my cousins. It's unfortunate this happened to you but as you say, better to find out sooner than later.
