Of course, it's ultimately up to you. How good of a friend is he? What risks may there be of telling him? It sounds like since you're changing jobs, there's a natural "out" for you in the unlikely case that it isn't well-received. From what you describe, it sounds like pretty low-risk tho...

I'm changing jobs soon and I decided I wanted to give a few of my work colleagues a gift and thank you card for being supportive, etc. One guy in particular made an impact on me. Usually I struggle to get along with people, and even when I do seem to get along it still feels like a chore. However, I...

He is extremely entitled, believing he doesn't have to follow the normal rules, and gets annoyed when other people break them because he thinks they're undeserving. He brags constantly about his appearance, etc. He cannot tolerate criticism ...

I have a friend like that. See moved to another town and met new people and as she's married started hanging out with her other couple friends more. We are still friends, but not close friends. It's ok that she gets on with them better. They have more in common. That does doesn't mean we don't like...

I have a question which may sound extreme here but: Was he always talking about the other employees behind their backs? If he was doing that, then be careful because he could have just latched himself onto you so he could find out about your flaws so he can gossip about you. I had a similar situati...
