This is not a joke. He is manipulative, nasty and rude for no reason. He keeps calling me a dumbass, fat (he's 80 pounds heavier than me but is the same height). He loves to pick up fights with me especially. If I try to fight back, he keeps calling me names until I become angry. If I do, he says "What you into you? I didn't do anything wrong". If I ignore him, he points at me and asks someone else from the froup "Why is this \*insert and insult\* silent?". I bought a game I waited for a long time for and he called me dumb for buying it (asked to bring the disk nonetheless). I'm not gonna see him until I finish it because he said himself he's gonna spoil it for me out of spite (I know he will because he does this all the time). Today I didn't go when he called but I will go next time probably and he will do it again. After my mom died couple years ago my psyche got a bit unstable and if he pushes it too much I can get physical. I don't want to because I know it's wrong. How do I protect myself from him? I need to go there so avoidance is not an option. Trying to talk to him constructively isn't one either because he just keeps repeating insults over and over. What should I do?
