Put yourself in my position.?

I have this friend from childhood, and we had a on and off type of friendship.
Mostly due to the fact that he would always do something stupid, and then apologize and try to make it look like he didn't do anything wrong.
It got to a point where his apology didn't have any value.
Few months ago he did something really embarrassing and disrespectful, that it can not be forgiven.

We haven't talked ever since, but all of a sudden he started calling me, and acting like nothing happen, like were friends or something.
What should i do with this person, he has a real negative type of vibe when his around people
in the past he would try to put me down every chance he got, would gossip about me to other people, and be two faced with me, trying to start confrontations between me and him, also start something between me and other people.
How should i talk to him, or handle this situation.

Specially when i end up running into him, or get a call from him,
asking me to hangout.

you are correct,, when one says he or she is sorry,, they should mean it or else it is useless lip service. So level with him. Let him know what you think,, tell him almost exactly as you have stated below your question. You are probably not the only one frustrated,, fed up with him and his behavior. You don't need that kind of friend. Yes, sometimes unintentionally we do things that hurt others ,, even those near and dear to our hearts but then when we realize the error of our ways,, if we are sincere, considerate and true friends,, or regardless if we are selfrespecting individuals, then we should be responsible for our actions,, intentional or otherwise. So LEVEL WITH HIM AND tell him exactly how you feel. He needs to hear it from you and anyone he upsets. Just corner him one day soon and let him have it,, no ,, of course I don't mean punch his lights,, out, Good luck to you.

Heya,
one hting i suggest is to say that it really hurt you the way he intentionally humiliates you and how would he feel if it happened to him.
If he wants this friendship towork he has to respect you otherwise he isn't really a friend.
His attitude could be due to problems of his own and it is his way of escaping and making him feel better, he may nt even intentionally hurt you just wants joke...either way you have to explain how you feel and that he needs to respect your feelings

hope ll works out for you =]

well..if i was in your position..i would talk to my friend and raise the issues of their disrespect to me in the friendship

..I wouldn't avoid them..i'd talk to them && if they don't want to change then i'd know i wouldn't want to hang around with that friend because their going to constantly hurt me...

..i won't hate them, but i just know i'd rather hang around people that accept and respect me..!

don't answer him ...if you see him walk away
