Clueless People

Have you ever been so annoyed by a friend's cluelessness that you just wanted to slap them and wake them up?!?!

This guy I know has been head over heels 3 times in less than a year. The first time was a married woman young enough to be his daughter, the second time was a woman almost young enough to be his daughter who wasn't interested in a relationship with him, and now its a woman he put on the back burner to chase the second woman.

And he chooses to listen only to people who tell him what he's doing is right. The second woman told him she wasn't ready for a relationship because she had been burned too many times. But she was making statements that made it obvious she was looking for Mr Right but hadn't met him yet. And then she meets Mr Right! Surprise, surprise!! This whole time the other guy is convinced that all he has to do is be nice enough to her and she will come around because "everyone" is telling him it's the way to go. He was making a very public fool of himself!

So now he goes back to a woman he had met before the second one. He had put her on the back burner to chase the second and now all of a sudden he's head over heels for her! But she's telling him that they can be only friends until his divorce is final. Sounds kinda like he's being put off once more to me! But he's spending sleepless nights crying over sappy music because he's so in love!

I've given up trying to force feed him clues.

Thanks for the vent.
