@Strictsir my buddy and I have a very long history. We've been friends since grade school. He's in a dangerous state of mind right now and reached out because he was afraid of being alone. He did the same for me when we were younger.

@Cigarguy Yes, I got that, and hats off to you for doing right by him. He's obviously not freeloading, paying you in his own way by buying things for the home etc. Things will get better for him, and just being there to listen will help alot. Encourage him all that you can to rebuild his life if he's come out of a painful relationship etc. No woman defines a man: we are all individuals, in charge of our own destinies. Things will get better ,I'm sure. Good luck!

@4meAndyou he did the same for me years ago.

@Cigarguy What goes around comes around, right?

@4meAndyou Well said . He sounds like a top guy. I'd never leave any friend of mine in difficulty, either; my home is their home as I see it. Best wishes

@JamesBugman he helps out a lot. And he'd give me money if I asked for it. But he was there for me years ago when I was in a bad place and didn't ask for anything in so I'm just returning the favor now. Plus he just sent alot of money on the things he got for the downstairs room

@YoMomma yes him and Joel get along very well. My friend has always been very generous. I really don't know how long he's going stay but he was his first therapy appointment tomorrow, so I'm very happy about that

@Cigarguy ok 🙂
