Theres this guy who I hang out with and he always seems to be swearing. Its like he has to use a swear word every other sentence, even around people who never swear and arent comfortable with it. He seems to believe he can say whatever he wants because its who he is, even though it makes everyone uncomfortable, including me. I swear, but I have been trying to stop. His swearing makes me uncomfortable and when he does it around others I feel sick because they get so weirded out and I can't do anything to stop it. I want to tell him to stop, but I dont know if I should.

Anxiety Maybe
I'm afraid from people, afraid about what they might think about in their heads or say to one another about me or even about them noticing me. I worry too much...

Have positive thoughts?
I am really feeling low . And i cant even tell anyone . I already lost 36 marks for my silly mistake .i dont know what to do now ... i cant have positive though...
That's not really your problem...
You can still go and tell him how it makes you feel. Just say the he needs to change because it makes him look uneducated. You can also just drop him like a rock and disappear out of his life.
ReplyThat* opps lol
ReplyDropping him like a rock sounds best, but there are sadly too many other variables. Namely our mutual friend who is fighting for us to stay friends and the fact that I have class with him and sit next to him in it. I'll keep the other idea in mind. I know it's not really my problem, but it still makes it really hard to be his friend.
I wish could just disappear from his life.
Thanks!

ReplyJust approach him and tell him how you really feel about his swearing. If he's your real friend he should be open to your suggestion and at least listen. Make sure not to yell and argue with him though, because it might just cause him to get upset and maybe even swear more. Just tell him how you and your friends feel about it without yelling but staying firm so he takes you seriously. At least that's how I think you should address this but there could be other ways.
ReplyI'll keep this in mind, thank you!

ReplyIf he makes you uncomfortable drop him out of your life. The only friends you'll have in life are the ones that meet your standards. The ones that make you uncomfortable will never be a friend in your eyes.
Just stop the dude. I'm someone who "cusses like a sailor." Also don't try to change someone, it's not really your place.
ReplyI'm starting to realize I worded it wrong. I don't want to change him, I just want him to have a filter around some people.
I have been trying to drop him from my life as much as possible, but it isn't working very well.
Thank you!
