Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : i’m a teenage girl in high school and i’ve been best friends with a guy since the beginning of middle school (6 years ago) for a really long time, our friendship was great, we bonded over comics and art, but i don’t think i can be friends with him anymore. he has a habit of making jokes about me being stupid and i’ve asked him to stop multiple times, but he won’t.  in general, he’s spoken down to me our entire friendship. he tends to explain things to me that i didn’t ask for any explanation for and we’re in the same placement for our classes but he acts like he’s superior to me. i’m not self conscious about my smarts, but i’m tired of being the butt of all his jokes. the last time we hung out, he made a joke about me being an idiot in front of people that were kinda important and it embarrassed me. afterwards, i tried to talk to him about how uncomfortable that made me and he just laughed it off. over the past year or so especially, i feel like he’s become really arrogant and insensitive to the feelings of those around him. i know that he didn’t do any one thing worthy of ending our friendship and it would be difficult to explain but wibta if i just stopped hanging out with him? i’d be kind to him at school and at whatever social events we end up at together but i wouldn’t make plans with him all the time anymore. i wouldn’t ghost him, id just stop initiating stuff all the time.
