While I can understand your deep feelings, name calling won't help. People who seek negative attention thrive off of posts like that^^^. He needs that to prove that even strangers have a poor opinion of him so he need not even try. I responded to him knowing full well what his response would be. There is a sense of learned helplessness that is prevalent in a select group of people, I think we have seen similar signs from other members in this demographic here before. He will shoot down every suggestion because they would require effort on his part and he is of the mind that this is his lot in life, the cards he has been dealt, a victim. All we can do is wish him well. Nothing we say will make him miraculously see that he is responsible for what his life becomes.
