Its really that I'm not afraid to bring this up. I just really don't know if its my place. This whole situation has been so extreme that I feel like his family would take notice. Especially with what happened with his dad.

I wasnt refering to a fear of bringing it up man.... Im referring of fear of existence of the decisions he is making because "you" think those are things to be afraid of... if you are capable of admitting you dont own the truth of the universe, then you might start to understand that the things you are afraid of might not be things to be afraid of in the first place.... but then again I dont know if you are a person capable of understanding you dont own the truth of the universe or you live only by your own ego as most people do in here. Cheers

Has he always been reasonable, low key, and careful until now?

Either way, I’d bring it up. He should see someone. Tell him you’ll go with him to a doctor and the like.

Self destruction is tough to watch. Even if your friend isn’t mentally ill, it sounds like he’s making terrible decisions still

Yes and no.. He's saved in my phone as "Special J" for a reason. He has done some super retarded shit in the past but nothing really this extreme. I mean everything else just pales in comparison. Thats a good idea but he's too proud of a person. I think most of us are when it comes to discussing mental health.

Ignore this guy. Anyone out there who is willing to talk about truthh as some nebulous thing that can’t be touched, reasoned through, and the like isn’t the person to take advice from, especially when you’re the one who has experience of your friends behavior, are aware of his family history, and knows whether or not these impulsive decisions fit his personality.
Mystical truth bullshit can go and die

This shit is fucking tricky man. My brother got out of an 8 year relationship with someone who was only ever just his GF because she wanted to move on and have kids and shit. He then proceeds to start making out with his best friends girlfriend at my dad's 50th birthday party, they are moved in together within months and married within a year or so and already trying to have kids.

Not trying to steal your thunder, but it's amazing how out of character and impulsive people can act. Sometimes it just seems like a switch is hit and BOOM, someone changes completely. He was never the type to make decisions like this before, and he fucking goes and makes like 3-4 COMPLETELY life altering changes within a few years.

I mean, maybe we all have it in us? Maybe "midlife crisis" is an actual thing, but not necessarily always geared towards happening midlife? Watching friends/siblings/loved ones make decisions like this when they are normally of sound mind is scary as fuck to think about.

The advise to just sit and have a bro talk with him is great. In my case, my brother just seemed like he was in a trance and didn't listen to a fucking word I said, so better luck to you man. I seriously dont fucking get it. This chick he got with is COMPLETELY not even his type either. He pulled in TONS of great looking women, and his ex was one of them, and this chick was someone who I totally could never see him with.

When people's minds get fucked like this it's just plain ole' scary. Good luck!

Dude... Its like the exact same thing. I'm kinda just watching and thinking to myself "really?" He's a very religious person too. Like he sees signs and shit. I don't ever shit on him for it but I'm fully ready to hear that come out of his mouth Saturday.

My brother wasn't religious AT ALL, and even shit on it every once in awhile. Now has 2 kids and churches it up like he is a fucking pastor. I just keep thinking "well, if he is happy, then good for him", but he never TRULY seems happy, at least to me, when we are all gathered together for holidays and shit. I mean, he loves his kids, but everytime his wife says or does something stupid, he gives the same "WTF is this dumb bitch doing" eye roll that I give, and he shouldn't be doing that....

His wife is straight up cooky dooks, but who am I to do more than warn him from the beginning and be there to tell him I told you so at the end.

This Christian chick: is he someone who sees signs from god in random things and thinks stuff act as some kind of divine omen?

I know some personalities like that, a literally none of them are stable people

Well you hit the nail on the head.

 

[OverCoronavirus Pressure]

My best friend's dad tried killing himself about two years ago due to his mental illness going unchecked. (He's Bipolar.) Now males generally don't start showing signs of this until they're around 23-25 years old. Well he just turned 25.

Anyhoo, I recently bought a piece of property and about a two months later, he decided to buy his own house. It was very impulsive because he didn't even go through our mutual friend who is a real estate agent. He looked at a total of four houses and just made his decision. No big deal, I didn't think anything of it. I congratulated him and let him know that it was super awesome. I didn't think this was impulsive until you factor in a few more things that happened here recently.

Homie decided to purchase a 2004 Mustang Cobra. That's badass. It needs a lot of work done to it but nothing too serious. This didn't worry me at all but he sent me a text out of the blue a couple nights ago that made me literally say "What the fuck!?"

I just found out that I'm going to be the best man at his wedding. He's getting married to a chick he met off of tinder a month ago. The shit is fucking crazy. He said he started dating her because her profile said Christian. I then ask him whens the big date and he tells me November 10th of this year.... I'm at a loss for words and he's talking about putting her name on the house too...

Now I'm torn. I want to be happy for him but this is just way too wild and I don't believe in coincidences. I'm starting to think he's having an extreme high manic episode. We're going to grab some beer over the weekend and I don't know if I should voice my concern. I don't wanna step on his toes and I feel like I can't be the only one who is seeing this as extreme.

What do you guys think? I've been getting a lot of people's opinions on this because like I said I don't wanna step on his toes but I don't wanna call him crazy.

Cliffs:
-Best friend's dad is bipolar and tried committing suicide two years ago.

-My friend is now at the age where Bipolar starts to show.

-Bought a piece of property a couple month after me

-Bought a 2004 Cobra right after purchasing the house

-Got engaged to a girl he met off a Tinder a month ago and has only lived with her for 6 days.

-Going to meet with him over the weekend and I'm wondering if I should voice my concern because this is way too extreme when you put everything together.I think he's having a manic episode.

Tread lightly, stout yeoman.
Maybe just keep a sharp eye on it for now.

I lost a really good friend because i knew what was best for him with his love life.
I was right in the long run, but it still cost me a friendship.

 

[Only Here for Attachments]

Make sure he does NOT put her name on the house, that's the most imminent disaster at this point.

You know why I find this post funny? A few years ago he was talking to this sloot and I couldn't shake this vibe that she was fake as fuck. So we were all suppose to meet at this club but she said she was stuck with a friend and couldn't attend. He originally didn't wanna go downtown and got pissed when I kept suggesting that she was there. Finally we went and sure enough right there on the dance floor she was twerking on some other dude.

I'd like to think that he'll remember this when I bring up my concerns.

 

[lakersfan45]

Urge him to seek help and get an evaluation. I’m not sure how u do this. If he’s mentally ill it won’t matter what u say or how u say it. He needs medical help and intervention. necessarily saying he needs meds but he needs to be evaluated before you can even think about how to approach this

 

[Mr. 4K]

Yeah, that's what I'm really worried about. Hes just so damn gullible dude. Its a blessing and a curse to only see the best in people.

Very tough situation. I think it might be better to focus on the early marriage and convince him to get a prenuptial/not put her name on house. If she really loves him she shouldn’t have a problem with the prenup.

 

[Mau]

Let him do whatever the fuck he wants. Don't cockblock him.

 

[Mr. 4K]

Like I said, its not like I wanna stop him from marrying her. Its more like I want him to see the bigger picture. His impulsiveness is out of control. If she makes him happy then good for him. I'm not trying to step on his toes. However, he needs to protect himself.
