heres the run down of the situation, my longtime best friend is really being a bastard since he got into uni.

I can understand he doesnt have as much time but now when I do speak to him he thinks all of a sudden hes somehow better then me (hes been going to uni for 3 weeks and if he quit he wouldnt be able to get a job that pays half as much as I could) hes just belittling everyone.

Like a electrician we know who had a kid he said he feels sorry for him that all he will ever be is a electrician (something he aprenticed to do but never completed) and im just like so what man? maybe hes happy.

so the conversation moves on and he keeps repeating stuff like I am no longer the unemployed bored loser.

my problem is hes become some pompous elietiest jackass, I even tried talking to him about weed as we first toked up together, he told me weed is for unemployed losers and he melted his bong into a peice of art.

its like jesus man you just think you know people, thing was when I started getting into it a bit with him he told me hes not the unemployed loser I thought he was.

He doesnt even realize man that Uni isnt employment and being best friends for 6 years or so I didn't think he was a loser untill now.

I am a bit bugging out now cause I just cant trust the guy now or in the future anymore.

If you are truly best friends it's your responsibility to call him an asshole and tell him what's going on. Ask him why he thinks he is better than anyone else anyway? If he's not hip to it than he is a douche. Sounds kinda like he is brainwashed by some vagina.

well I know for a fact this isnt a girl thing, hes just gained this attitude rather quickly starting to forget where he came from, whos had his back, covered him when hes broke that sort of thing.

hes onto this Uni stuff and is dissing anything anyone else is doing like hes so great.

im gonna ride it out for a few days see if he calms down or is fucking with me somehow but if he keeps on with this stuff I hope he can find a friend as good as me cause hell I dont need this shit.

Your friend has entered a new world and is merely trying to fit in. He is adopting an attitude so that HE can succeed. I think his methodology is crude, but at that age, it's understandable.

Just tell him you will be patient with him since he is your friend. Tell him you know that his snobiness is simply a reflex action of him being in a strange environment with ppl that may have more on the ball than himself. Tell him that you have faith in him, and that if he really applies himself, he will be able to compete.

That'll do it nicely. :lol:

It is your friend who in flux, not you. He's just projecting his own little bit of uncertainty at his new environment. :peace:

Thats all fine and good to coddle him along like that granted tact is not my forte i took offense to his electrician comment though so i was a little upset. see I am a union carpenter and you might remind him that after he pays off his school bills and such even if he made twice as much it would take him 5 years or so to catch up. unions pay for our schooling and we learn a valuable trade. As a superintendent or as his own contractor he could expect a nice 6 figure salary easy. with no bills to pay back. 30 100 bucks even a month in due is much cheaper than student loans. So while it is fine to be a bit snobbish because of his surroundings slamming a mutual friend imo is shady at best and he prolly does the same behind your back.

Mate I think that people in this thread are right, he is just trying to fit in. In reality people who goto university and think they are above anyone else are having themselves on. University is a joke. You pay money to learn from books and attend rubbish lectures that academics have to do so as to keep their position in the university. At the end of the day you come out with an expensive piece of paper and unless you have done something useful such as science or engineering you have just paid a huge amount of money for a piece of paper that you may as well wipe your ass with. I myself attend university at the moment and honestly I am looking for something more fulfilling. I don't want to become more of corporate slave than I already am. Goodluck with your new job OP and just give your mate some time to settle in and if he doesnt revert back to his old self sometime soon, ask him why he is being such an insipid cunt. CheerS!
