I hate men sometimes.

Ok, not ALL men, maybe just certain ones. I have a friend named Bill. Bill is an unattractive 400 lb OCD bi-polar self mutilator who pontificates on Nazi's and lives his life by movies. He owns close to 1,000 DVDs. One thousand. He has the worst hygiene, worse than many of my old drug addicted friends.

Anyway, We have been friends for a while. He is crazy, but its some of the same neurosis that I have already dealt with in me (the mental illness part) and so he doesn't scare me. Unfortunately he has had an insane crush on me for about 6 months now. It hasn't been bad because he didn't push it. Until recently. Now he is calling me incessantly, making remarks I can only take as flirting, and saying how much he misses and loves me. The thought of anything other than friendship makes my skin crawl.

What pisses me off is the fact that he is going to force me to write him off completely. He has been a good friend and I don't want to do that. I hate being forced into something I hate, just because someone can't be reasoned with.

Classic "When Harry Met Sally".
