What can i do ?

[arcana83]

Hi people, this is way out of topic and im sorry to post this here but i need unbiased suggestions! I have this ex drummer who used to be a good friend of mine but he completely lost the plot when he became a full blown meth addict. Not too long ago he requested for me to help him financially, on top of that he said i "owed" him for the things that he "done" for me. He is a rich spoilt kid who is draining his parents' income, nonetheless he was a good guy ( before the full blown addiction ) anyway he wasnt exactly being nice when he asked for my help. ( he is the type that gains pleasure and confident by putting other people down ) so naturally i declined his request and told him to stop dragging people down and start fixing his problem on his own. In return he threaten my wife saying that he will 'expose" me of my past. This is a very cowardly act and his way of revenge is by slandering me to my friends. I find this to be extremely childish but what ticked me off is that he actually threaten my wife! Tell me what can i do to get back at him? bare in mind we are both in different country.

If you're in different countries then it should be all the easier to just cut him out of your life; people like that I can't imagine actually having the energy or determination to carry out your threats, he's clearly just desperate, so I vote saying no, severing all ties, and telling as many people about it as possible, so if something does happen to you, well, tons of people know to tell the cops that he's likely the culprit God, though, I fucking hate that "you owe me for all the nondescript stuff I've done for you over the years" attitude, especially when a former friend of mine would always refuse to pay me back money I loaned him with that line :Smug:

You trying to get back at him?Why man?
Don't stoop to his level.
If you know you haven't done anything to feel guilty of,then let him say what he likes.Ultimately your "Friends"would know that he's telling lies,because they know you right?And know your character.
You have a wife and a life and threats although i don't know the nature of your friend are usually just a sign of weakness from people who are frightened and lost little souls.

It's obvious he's desperate from the description in your post and he's trying to make you his guinea.There is no point in attempting to reason with someone who is desperate and uses statements like you "owe me".

The thing you owe is to love honor and protect your wife and your life and if in fact you believe this guy is capable of bringing harm to you,then document everything and make people aware so that if shit does hit the fan,you have a legal foot to stand on,opposed to he said she said bullshit.

And in relation to the original question,What can i do??
Let it go,and enjoy life.

styvo,
Because he is a manipulative little coward. Ok fair enough. Your response is very rational. I dig it. Im just ticked off. I hate out of control Junkies!

Dude, fuck that, "expose you"? Worthless pussy bitch move. Call his bluff and say he's a liar, even if he isn't, he's a meth addict and no one will listen to him.

 

[arcana83]

I hear ya matt. Thats the dude who programmed the drums for broken. He is broken indeed.

Man, I wouldn't do anything. Worry about something more important with your time and let karma kick him in the ass for you.

You're worried about harm done to your reputation by a spoiled, whiny, needy meth addict? This sounds an awful lot like the time my entire reputation was destroyed because a third-grader said 'poopeyhead' in my general direction... oh, fuck, wait... nevermind, that's positively absurd.
