I found an old photo of us. I miss when you used to be cool.

Circa 2001 was the last time he was cool. He became a jerk not long after. He always had a selfish streak but it became more prominent. He always had a quick temper but it became even quicker. After awhile you felt like you had to tip toe around him because you never know what might upset him.

It's almost like he regressed and became childish. He would like to pick fights and start arguments. If I defended myself I was just mean and he was only joking. He just became miserable to be around.

I would try talking to him about it and he would brush me off or tell me to shut up and mind my business. Apparently he's into poker now because he hit me up for money lots of it. I guess his job is that and cryptocurrency. He has these guys he plays with frequently.

Who knows maybe someday he will change and understand that he is pushing everyone away. Maybe I'm stupid for still reaching out.
