I think they need space bro. Like I get you are friends but you are too involved in their lives. Just take a step back. Let them parent and hit you up when they need to. Remember they've only been parents for three years and they have little girls.

Yeah he's like revolving around their lives and the wife is freaked out. When he was far it was easier. But being their constantly can be tiring I'm assuming.

Just go on with your life. The wife is freaked out cause she thinks you moved down for them.
I get this perspective however the first week I was down there she said to come over be with the girls and watch shows with her and all that.

I thought to myself thats alittle much I got shyt to do. So in 7 weeks I went over 6 times. I was following directions and then a switch up is what I am confused about.

The relationship here seems unhealthy and both parties are too attached to each other.
You didn't need to be down at their place every week breh, do you not have a life of your own?
Your friend and his wife should also have other friends or family members available for assistance rather than you uprooting your life to assist them or be closer to them.

At the moment, it might be best to distance yourself from them for a bit so everyone can have some space. Maybe in a few weeks time, you guys can come around and speak on the issue.

They were like the 3rd or 4th reason I moved not THE reason but I hear ya (they don't get along with their parents that well). I would go over for 5-6 hours a week and did that based on feedback from them and what they were telling me they wanted.

I was and still am new in town so I was going out 1-2 a week on my own and over there 1x a week I was gonna make them a percentage of my life now it went from 30% to 0% and I think it might be best to keep it that way but I think ppl here on the forum have experience and want to see whats going on from other perspectives

Id fall back

You sound soft.

OP, you need to start the paperwork to get custody of their kids. Do you know how to get into their home? If you can document that you have spent X number of hours a day in their home then you may qualify for Squatter's Rights and start litigation to evict them and claim ownership of the home. Sleep in a crawl space and use your phone location to document that you are in the home. This is set up so lovely. :banderas:

There’s legitimately some good advice in this thread. TLR nikkas growing up.

Anyways, OP give them some space. That’s kinda weird IMO, but you’ve known your boy for decades and his girl for a long ass time too. Maybe they’re going through some shyt personally. Doesn’t sound like enough to just throw away what should be a lifelong friendship. Just give them some space and let them get their shyt together before you try reaching out again.

fukk that. You know where they shop right? Get several part time jobs at those places and stay popping up in their grills on some "Can I help you?" :mjlit:

5-6 hours a week, every week, is a lot, especially if its all in one sitting. Imagine expecting a guest at your house every Saturday from 10-4. They probably thought you'd pass through for like an hour or two max.
Now that this seems to be the truth of the situation I get it but if someone indicates they want you over more than once a week and when you would vacation offer for you to stay (24hrs) for a week or two it would lead you to believe 20-25hrs a month is no big deal.

In addition they leaving all their possessions and kids to you if shyt happens ??? Maybe I am just a back up plan or they just said things to be nice. My point is I don’t really want to be involved if that’s the case in any capacity if there’s a switch up… that shyt just plays out in 2yrs in 4yrs in 2041…. Is my point it’s a cycle and I think there’s a “lie” there that I don’t know about and I’ll just want to let the toxic be…
