I’m not sure they’re really that smart. 🤓 I believe we give them WAY too much credit at times. The worst is being at odds with family, but losing a friend is a bummer. If he’s worth having as one, he will change his mind. When they ignore my warnings I turn in my heel and walk away. They will one day see you were correct. It’s coming. As Jeff C once said, “Reality always overtakes subjectivity, sooner or later, and it’s usually exquisitely painful.”
