Wassup y'all I have a friend I've been cool with since 2006, yesterday they posted a video online without my knowledge or consent, that kinda makes me look bad..it's basketball related, me and him.played 1 on 1.. but the way he edited the video it makes me look bad, he edited the video to show only his makes and my missed shots..to make it seem like he dominated me even though the score was 12-10..we were all that the park talking **** so I wasn't tripping but at the end of the video there's a drunk old head that said I was crying like a ***** over calling fouls..I didn't trip when he said it..because we were just hooping..I just told him stfu and play me one on one..after he quit I told him stfu and get off the court..i didn't know dude was recording us talking ****..but he purposely edited the video to show where dude said I was crying like a *****..he even posted a caption when you never beat me one one like make sure you watch till the end..some childish **** like that..I didn't know he posted it so when I saw it I was salty because I don't play with my reputation..I called him and told.him take it down he said aiight but the video is still up..before I step to him I just wanted to know am I overreacting or should I beat his ass for disrespecting me
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
Naw we don't..I don't play when it comes to disrespect and his gf is pregnant I'm not wasting my time on her

Doesn't sound like much of a friend. True friends don't put their friends down for the sake of their own glorification. Sounds more like an enemy.
Simply walk away like the bigger person you are and continue living your life. Stay true to your purpose and mission. Anything outside of that is a distraction.

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

You need to ditch this dooche.
This guy is not your friend, he's a pr!ck.
... always be busy, find stuff to do anywhere else. When going out, go out of town, some different scenery.
This guy needs disposed of.

I'll probably get some push-back with this advice, but here's my take.
(use your own wording, of course).
"It looks like my point isn't coming across. It appears that I'll need to meet you in person so my point will become more clear. I also think it would be a good idea to video our meeting to share with others."
Nothing in the above message is incriminating (no chance of getting cited for "communicating threats") but he'll be able to read between the lines.

It’s just a game. Nothing worth fighting over. Period.
