I think that's an important point. Does how hard he's worked for you justify behaving that way? This friend has done a lot to help me... then again, I've done a lot to help her. But if either of us have done it expecting that to justify rudeness, well, I don't think it's supposed to work that way. Better not to do all those things to help than to do them expecting them to imply carte blanche to be nasty to the person on the receiving end of the help, I think.But in the grand scheme of 5 years of his working his arse off for me...I just forgive him...this time.
My mother had/has terrible boundaries. She would give the shirt off her back... but expect that gave her the right to tell you how to life your life. It doesn't. Better to say "no" sometimes than to lack respect. That's what it's looking like from here.
