It is getting hard to communicate with my friend of over a decade. We had a few years where he was at college and we just talked casually via texts but in the last few years of actually hanging out and chilling in public i am really starting to notice some odd tendencies from him that i normally do not witness others doing. Now we have reached a state of getting into some type of argument when we text or meet up to chill on a near weekly basis. What he calls "discussions" i am sorry to say to the geberal punblic would be called arguments after a long day of work and our latest spat was very childish. I was having a camgirl try to blackmail me online and was asking my friend if he has received any message requests and if he could please keep me in the loop if anyone said anything about me to him. He started to make a joke of it. I got testy. He then told me to never ask him for advice or vent to him because "the way his mind works" he naturally wants to make fun of everything. He has lost more than a few friends due to his "edginess in conversation" as he calls it which i think is just pretty much saying rude comments and talking about subjects like politics when clearly the room of people is not in the mood to talk about it. He has lost a few mates for texting their girlfriends or coming onto them at parties. Even as i type this, I feel like I am being an asshole but i also feel like he is somewhat allowing himself to be socially irresponsible. Not sure how else to say it. His comments have become somewhat striking. As friends i have consoled him on many things when he has vented to me as a male friend so with the latest statement of "don't ask me for advice or vent to me because i will make fun of you" it really put me off and makes me somewhat not want to communicate as i can see the care and respect is not mutual. Sorry to say but autism is no excuse to be socially rude or snarky or snobby or make offputting comments to people knowing you are not being polite but yet choosing to do it anyways. I feel like a terrible D**K of a man typing this but it is true. It is getting difficult to interact with him. Also he is drinking heavily so it's making him more headstrong than he needs to be with an already very tall false sense of ego. I am getting annoyed.
