My brother said he would come play paintball with me & my cousin and I really wanted to play it with my brother but he said he didn't want to. So later I called my cousin and then my brother wanted to play. Later we were about to leave to head to the paintball store and i grabbed my wallet out of my room. My brother was playing games in there and I said lets go.
He said I don't want to go now. We had all made plans and my cousin had even gone out and wasted 2 hours getting him Co2. He did that to be nice so we could have a fun day. My mom was going to make him go but then he pulled a big *** lie, It was surreal. Somthing dawned on me. Later we were in my room, and I told him to hook up the game in his room so I could be alone. I asked him why did you lie? He said "I told the truth", it didn'y matter anyway because my mom was downstairs. And then he whispered to me "Hahahaha" like Cartman from South Park. He did that to show he did lie! I thought WTF.****NO MORE SPACE****

He wanted to piss me off and he did. It is far later now and I don't even care about the paiontball, I care about truth. All I want is him to tell the truth and he never did. I know I would never act like this toward antohter human being. Why? Why are people evil? Can their be a perfect world? What is going on, people act so cruel. Just the previous night I did something for him he wanted me to.

Yeah, you can't change people who don't want to change themselves though. People like this are doing it for one reason only, they find some sort of pleasure in the way they are treating others. It may be that they are actually very unhappy with who they are themselves, so they find pleasure in making others unhappy as well."If they can't be happy, no one will." Or maybe it makes them feel like a bigger person to be in control over situations like that. To have the power to cause people to feel certain emotions, like sadness, or disappointment.It may give them the feeling of being in control over something, because maybe they feel like the rest of their life sucks and they have no control over it. They won't change until ultimately the pain of being this way overrides the pleasure they are getting from it. They won't change until they actually see that they are actually making their lives worse, for being this way to others. Just try to stay away from him as best you can. You obviously don't have the power to change him, only he does. The best thing to do is stand back from the situation, and let him see for himself what he is actually doing to his life by being this way. He is ruining friendships, and in the end he will be left alone, wandering why. That will be the turning point for him, when he finds himself alone and realizes that he did this to himself. The way I look at people like this, is that they have not evolved as well as most others, they are still a step behind, because they have not come to the realization yet that humans need to act as a team to survive. Feel good about yourself that you understand this, and you are more mature than he is. Then just let the natural course of things happen, he will begin to see the consequences of his actions. That's when you can still be a good brother and step in and help him out of his rut. But for the moment I would stay away from him as much as possible, because at the moment he doesn't seem like he would be the type to listen to others suggestions. Good luck!

A perfect world? Of course not (though it depends on YOUR definition of perfect).

Everyone is evil, it's human nature, some are more evil than others, some are less. But don't forget, everyone has a nice side to them. I'm sure everyone in the world has/will do something good at least once. I'm sorry to say that I'm one of those evil people. We were talking about something similar to think in English class. It was something like "is love worth dying for?" Some said yes, some said no. I said no, it's not worth it....at all, not for me at least. But it could be for you. My friend said she'd die for anyone, even strangers, while I don't even give a crap who dies. It's not like I killed them, right? You think I'm selfish, but really, that's all there is to it. I don't care what happens to other people, except for my friends and family. I wouldn't jump in front of a bullet for any of my friends, I'll be honest with you. I don't even know if I'd do it for my family members. Though I probably will. And I like helping people. There's all kinds of different people in the world, that's just how they are. Some do change, most don't. But then again, life isn't fair. Deal with it.

Have a nice day.

Well, here's the solution.

Put your relationship with him on standby. Meaning, don't ask him to go anywhere with you, don't ask him for anything, and don't talk to him, if possible. And explain to him, he's not going anywhere with you, if you go to Disneyland, he's staying home and playing a game.

I know what this is like - I used to feel like I had to do things for my brother, but he never did things for me. I realize now that I didn't have to do anything, but it doesn't matter, because while he's sitting at home playing WoW for 16 hours a day, I'm working and driving a nice 2006 Audi, while he's driving his misfiring Ford POS.
