Maybe not just a jerk but just stop being cool in general?  Like no longer participating in any hobbies, etc.

Yep. It happens. Pussy is a helluva drug.


I usually just back off and either they split up or come back down to the real world soon after and their friends exist again.

ETA: All of us are married now so we definitely do stuff together. But yeah back in the day it happened.

Yes.  It happens.  

Enjoy hobbies while you are single.  Once you have kids, they will sit in a box and go obsolete for 15 years until the kids are teenagers and don't want to have anything to do with you.  then you can dig them out of storage, realize they are way outdated, throw them away and buy new ones to restart your hobbies, whatever they are.

Two best friends went to college. Got girlfriends from outside our podunk town.

11 years later and I still don't exist nor do I give a fuck. Good riddance.

Nothing recent but 10th grade a good friend got himself a GF and really was the last I spoke to him. He wasn't with her long but after that he got into drugs and shit. He ODed last year. Didn't effect me much, hadn't seen him in 15 years.

I have a friend who was breaking up and getting back together so often that the last time they broke I put a pool sheet with dates of the reunion on the wall at his dad’s place of business.  Half the town signed the sheet and we ran out of dates.

It was a few weeks before he talked to me.

Oh yeah. Happened to my best friend from high school when I was a senior in college. He married her and his life had been hell since. We haven’t spoken in over 10 years.

I've had plenty of friends that may not exactly turn into jerks, but they act and talk completely different to their wives/girlfriends. As in, they aren't even like the same person. Even after many years of marriage, it's like they have a split personality.

That's actually a sign that they are being abused in some way.

This.  I’m 35 and the only single one out of a group of 8 or so best friends that grew up together.  When we get together they go wild and out and blame me as the bad influence to their wives.  I mean I’m ok with being the whipping boy I guess but it’s just funny

Becoming a jerk is weird but spending more time with the gf getting laid instead of hanging out with your buddies is pretty normal. A guy doesn’t have to give up his hobbies but if he has a gf and doesn’t spend time with her someone else will.

Jerk? No, but its common for dudes to ghost the bros when they get new girls......especially if their guy friends are single.

Sure.

But here's the harsh truth:

The people who ghosted you like that were never really your friends in the first place.

If by jerk you mean giant gaping vagina that basically is a kept man because he quietly gets off on compromising on everything and doing what his wife wants always?

The past year of covid bullshit and his weinery adopted pussy kids pretty much had me call off a 30+ year friendship.

I've had them pretty much disappear once they got that stink-finger.
Then after the broad dumped them, we welcomed them back as if they never left.

Dating and finding someone you’ll potentially marry and start  a family with is about a million times more important than hobbies or friends.  I wouldn’t hold it against them.
Link Posted: 7/22/2021 8:26:11 AM EDT
[#31]
Yes.

Had a buddy that I fished with, hunted with, went shooting with, rode ATVs with, reloaded with, etc., etc., etc.

He got married and that was the end of all that stuff.  Thought it was me till I talked to his brother and found out he no longer went hunting/camping/fishing with is family either.  He didn't quit those activities.  He just started doing everything with his wife's family.

Haven't talked to that guy in 35 years or more.  I used to run into his brother at the grocery store or gas station now and then, but haven't seen him for a few years either.

All year long male elk pal around and have a great time as bachelors together.
Then in the fall they go after the ladies and forget about their friends.
They even beat the shit out of each other.
The most chad elk gets the ladies and stops doing hobbies and stuff.

The other male elk start a thread about how he’s being a jerk.

I've had friends where once they were hooked up, they spent all their time with their g/f and I hardly seen them.
I think this happens to most people.

I had a friend who turned into a prick just for thinking he had a girlfriend.  He was a sixty-something incel who mistook a girl's friendship for interest.  He canceled activities that we had planned and did them with her.  She finally told him she had a boyfriend and he was just a friend.  Dude was nearly suicidal over it.

I tried to remain friends with him for a while, but I slowly had less and less to do with him because of other "questionable" behaviors and I no longer even take calls from him.

Fuck that dude.

Yep. An old buddy of mine swears he dominates women but is a fucking slave to them, and they all look like his mother.
I have personally sat and watched him give free drinks to the guy that was fucking his girlfriend while he was withholding dick to show her who's boss.
Definitely hos before bros, but I figure as long as I know it and it doesn't do anything but entertain me, I could not care less.
He finally got married in his early 50's to a Tinder date, that looks like his mother and had insurance and a steady job.
She's cool and I wish them luck.

After I found out that their woman would not let them hang with me because I was a bad influence I decided that I would make their woman hate me even more when I would dump them in the front yard hammered.

Now as every friend fooled his woman into thinking they had control I would get them hammered and show them that their man was not to be controlled, that they were taking the lion out of his soul.

Of the group of 7 I am the only one that has not been divorced and married for 42 years. What is funny is that I told my wife that she is only temporary not to get to comfortable. She tells me that one day the house, farm will be empty when I get home from hunting.

Maybe I am lucky, but when I want to see my life long friends all I have to do is call. I think that maybe pop taught me something good after all. If your friend can cut you loose over a woman then he was not your friend at all. There is a balance only women do not like to loosen their grip. And their are great Women out there.

Of course. Every time one of best friends broke up with her girlfriend he was always over hanging around, hunting, working on cars.

Got back together, got married and poof. Never saw his ass again.

Not a jerk per se but now a raging leftist elitist thanks to his wife who obviously hates men. Friend of over 20 years and my best man, I cut him off after I'd about had enough of his hypocrisy. See, they do very well for themselves, but of course they are for socialism and of course do nothing themselves to actually help anyone. But they want to tell everyone else how to live.

I stopped thinking about how it affected me in high school.

As I got older, I started thinking more about them.  If it was a healthy relationship, then I was happy that they moved on to a new phase in their life.

Their relationship is not about you.

I have three extended relatives that are like that.  They are anti-gun democrat-voting "champions of the poor" but live in million dollar houses far from where the rest of the libtards live.

No, but once I was getting laid I had my whiny, needy friend act like a jilted lover because her warm squishies were more fun than sitting in a fishing boat drinking his shitty beer.
