look it wasnt a 'noob' it was a troll most likely, the story wasnt even true imo, he posted some random crap for a laugh and posted more crap to justify it when he didnt get the reaction he wanted, he looked stupid so he closed his stupid account and opened up a new one

I disagree with somebody taking another persons comments out of context and without knowing anything about them, and then following on from that assuming the worst possible scenario about them and projecting a load of messed up personal crap at them.

I quoted everything I commented on which you'd know if you read any of my posts before coming in at the last minute swinging blindly. Nothing was out of context. I also didn't "project" anything. In fact you don't appear to know what that term means.

Basically a man bragged about screwing his mate's missus. He got a bad reaction from loads of people, not just me. He then claimed he was somehow rescuing her.

That is the situation as he claimed. What's the best possible scenario there?

I was in an emotionally and physically abusive relationship. Only ended a few months ago. Right now I've had to take a year off college to get major spinal surgery after he beat the absolute crap out of me and fcuked up my back.

ANd I can make jokes about it. Doesn't mean I'm lying. It's how I deal with things. I'm the happiest person on the planet and love a good laugh. So what he said in a light hearted manner.

You're not the spokesperson for abusive relationships because your sister was in one.

Everyone deals with things their own way.

Jesus....

I hope for your sake the saying "birds of a feather flock together" isn't literally true, because that "mate" or yours is just a pathetic dickhead and eejit.:D:D:rolleyes::rolleyes::):)

Fairly sure there's not supposed to be a comma in that...

The punctuation would be the difference between a capital J and a lower case one.

Yes I agree and it helped us find a dick.

Lando, your driver friend let you down, let your mate down, but worst of all, he let himself down.

Were you expecting great things or something..

A mate of mine when he's had a few drinks too many he'd often pretend to get a phone call and go outside and next thing you'd see him run off in the distance going home and he'd turn off his phone
I do always say look if your going home just tell me
Sometimes mates are just weird

Letting people down happens. It's how you make it up to them that matters and I assume I'm not too bad, as I still have friends.

Had tickets to a concert with a friend for months, she waited till we were at the gate outside to tell me she was going with some guy she knew a week and walked off to another entrance.

Been about two years now and I never got an apology!

Moved abroad alone about 5 months ago and my three "best friends" haven't been in contact to see if I was doing ok.

I just had bad friends

A few weeks ago myself and my mate had to go to a mates father’s removal wake thingy up the country in the middle of nowhere. We got lost on the way and I spotted a petrol station and we pulled in for directions.
There was a car pulling out and I hopped out and got the attention of the driver and asked where the house was.
“Oh just folle me I’m heading there meself” said the crudely looking character. I ran back to the car and hopped in and just about to say “Great just” when my mate floored it and cut you man up out in front of him and sped off down the road chuckling “Out of my way slow coach”
I yelled what the hell and he replied he not going to be stuck behind a slow coach piece of sh**it.
I finally got it through that we were meant to be following him and he had to turn and go back, but too late, he had turned off a different road and twenty minutes we finally reached our destination.
Outside the house I was having a few cans with some fellow wakers when your man comes up to me and said what I did was acting the blaggard and my mate pipes up Yea ya bo***llix Lando ha ha!
This is not the first time and wont be the last he acted the idiot, but sure he is a mate since year dot and a good one.
Have your mates ever let you down?

I thought you had to be 17 to get a driver's licence.

One mate comes to mind ... lets call him Bill

In 2008 I set Bill up with another mates sister. As he fancied her. You know, the usual, invite him out when the sister was going to be there, introducing, giving them space to chat, putting a word in. The usual stuff. He ends up hooking up with her. Few dates. Doesnt lead to more. But they had fun. Grand I thought.

Fast forward to 2010 and I meet a girl who happens to know Bill. We go on a few dates. Bill gets wind of this as we become friends on facebook. He then tries to burst the bubble. Going as far as to contacting her and saying that I 'wouldnt be suited for her' :rolleyes:

I later learn good ol' Bill tried it on with her in the past and got rejected. I guess since he couldnt get with her... he didnt want his "mate" (me) getting with her either. But yet it was ok for me to try and set him up with my mates sister :rolleyes:

I grew up in England, but have lived here 14 years (since I left school).
I was still in contact with my 'best' friend from school through letters/phone calls all through the years, and would go to visit her when I went on holidays to England maybe once a year.

4 years ago, she told me she had flights booked and she was coming over here for a holiday. I was fair excited about this, we talked about it on the phone for months beforehand and made plans. I booked the week off work, bought new bed linen for the room she would be sleeping in, and spent a fortune on really nice food. I even hired a car for the week because my own car was not very reliable and we had made plans to go to load's of tourist attractions (Cliff's of Moher, The Ring of Kerry, Blarney Castle etc.)

The DAY before she was due to arrive, I rang to ask what time her flight would be arriving in Shannon Airport. She just said to me 'oh, I was just going to ring you. I can't come over after all because my Mum is not very well'. Found out afterwards through mutual friends that her Mum had flu, and it was just an excuse because she didn't want to come over here.

Don't even know whether she ever really booked the flights, or was just bullshitting me. I'v not spoken to her since, and she never tried to offer any other explanation than the flimsy excuse she gave.


**Sorry this turned into a rant, just realised I must be STILL pissed off at her:o

Africa

OMFG Post of the Day ISNT a "You Laugh You Lose" post!

Also, of course my mates have let me down. Ive let them down too. Just not so badly that we arent mates any more. C'est la vie.

When my marriage broke down I found out quite quickly who my friends were.
Also I had an operation a few weeks ago and the one person who I was sure would be there to offer help with the kids or make us dinner was nowhere to be seen

friends will come and go but family will always be by your side

I like my friends but never trust them a 100%

Depends on your family doesnt it.

Sure some people would treat a stranger better than their own brother... i never got that. Unless the brother was an absolute dick or something. But generally your family is more likely to be there for you than some random "mate" who is only out for himself.

fungun

i have very little in common with my family, much closer to my friends

When I got married my elder brother (age ~30 at the time) was giving out on the phone that it was awkward to attend due to some travel arrangements from work - he would have had to take a flight to attend (apparently telling work to **** off was not an option). I was way too polite and said it was ok not to come if he couldnt manage it....and he said ok! Couldnt believe it, my own brother didnt turn up for my wedding! I had been his best man and all.

Nothing worse than having the suspense built up for a night out or a trip somewhere interesting ... only to get the dreaded " Not going now .... too few/not enough going... " text :mad:

Yeah, I screwed the mates missus loads of times then married her, what an awful cúnt I am. It would've happened no matter what, she was chasing me for about two years until I gave in.

The mate in question, I haven't seen him since, that was 11 years ago.

If she did the dirt on him.................:D
