Okay, FG. I'll say for about the last year, pretty much since we separated, he has been paranoid about our friends. Every practice, game, or whatever, he would either just not go or not speak to anyone. He would ALWAYS think that they were talking about him, staring at him, or that I had turned them against him and they were "my" friends.
He even went so far as on one of his weekends with the kids to call me from the baseball swimming party, and tell me that I better get there NOW or he was going to take the kids and make them leave. WHY? Because he could not be there with THOSE PEOPLE, he said. They were all my friends, he said... Then later after he threw a giant fit and left, several people told me that they tried to talk to him and he wouldn't even speak.
Honestly, a couple of weeks ago was the first time he has started to act normal with our friends again. This weekend he was back to laughing and joking with them like he used to. I think he has figured out that I didn't wave my magic wand and "turn them all against him". LOL
I mean, yeah, if you act crazy, look crazy, or bring your 18 yo ho ass girlfriend with you, they are going to stare. : ) But if you act normal, then everything is cool... haha.
