What do I do? Freaked
Ok, I just had a very weird experience.
My ex's best friend (or old best friend... I dunno if they are best friends anymore,) called me tonight (not once, but FIVE times). Now, this is weird in itself, as I have never really spoken to him over the phone before, and we were never very close. My ex and I would hang out with him and my girlfriends (probably like 3-4 times in the last three years), but nothing ever more than that. I did however, see him at the bar last weekend, and we chatted a bit.
Anyways, he calls me tonight at 3 in the morning, and I start talking to him, and I ask if he is ok, because I can tell there is something not quite normal about him, (other than the fact that he has called me at 3AM). He goes on to tell me that he is "fucked up" and he has had "too much to drink".
Well, I have had my fair share of drugged up moments, so I can tell that he is not only drunk, and that something else is going on. So I ask, "what else have you done tonight?" And he replies, "nothing, I'm good." So I ask again, "did you just drink? Or did you take something else?"
"Well, I had a little MDMA."
So I have someone tripping on ecstasy on the other line, and it sounds like he isn't having a very good trip.
I start talking to him, trying to make him feel better, and I get him laughing. I tell him some sweet stories, and I even start talking about how great kittens are. (I know what it is like to have a bad trip!!)
He isn't talking about anything bad, but I can read people, and I can get vibes from things. I can tell that he isn't thinking positively, and that he may be harmful to himself. I ask him where he is, and he tells me that he is on a veranda. I ask him if it is high up, and he says yes. I ask him to please go inside for me, and go in a room with other people. He agrees to go inside, but he wants to be alone... ?
Anyway, we continue talking, and a few minutes later, I can hear wind. I ask him again "where are you? Are you outside?" He says he is, and I again ask him to go back in, because "it'll make me feel better."
I am not feeling comfortable with him being someplace he can jump off of. He is not thinking properly, and I know that he has some issues going on in his life.
As if this isn't weird enough, he goes on to tell me how much he loves me, and how great I am. I reply by saying that he is just as great and that I love him as a friend. I realize this is a "love drug", so I comply, and try to keep him feeling good.
Then I decide that, even though I wouldn't know from experience, as I have never done E, I will play music for him that will make him trip nicely. I know people on E like to listen to hyper music, especially EDM (and I have loads of that).
I crank my speakers and play "Basement Jaxx - Stop for love", I listen into the ear piece, and I can hear wind again! I am freaked out because I am worried that he is going to attempt suicide, and I really wouldn't want him doing that. I ask him to go back inside, and he does. At this point, one of his friends decides to take him for a walk to a big city park (they brought me along via phone.)
His friend ends up passing out hanging off a swing, and the guy I am talking to is grasping onto my voice as a sign of comfort and safety. He wants me to keep talking, even if it makes no sense. So I talk for a while about happy things, and good memories. I get him laughing again, which is great, and I ask if he wants to hear more music.
He says "yes"...
So I try to play something a little more fun and happy, "Scooter - Ramp", and then ironically, I play "Darude - Ecstasy"
He enjoys the last two thouroughly, and he seems to be doing better. I get him to wake the guy that he is with, and tell him to get home and drink some water, and then crawl into bed. He doesn't want to drink water or go to bed because both are "very bad".
Seems like there is no convincing him, so I just continue to say pleasant things, and laugh about nothing. After 2 and a half hours of talking, he decides to hang around the crowd of people at the house he is at, and that he is ok to let me go.
Through out the conversation he asked me multiple times if he could call me, and if he could have my number. (Ummmm, you called me, so I am pretty sure you have my number ) He told me he loved me several times, and he continuously apologized for bothering me, which I assured him was not a bother at all.
I am not sure how to take this to be honest. I am definitely not going to read into him "loving" me since that was the drugs talking, but what happens if he calls me again? Sober? Drunk? ETC?
How did I handle the situation? Should I tell him I am worried about him? I don't think I really have the right considering I hardly know him.
BLAH... it was weird!
I need to crawl into bed now ME SO TIRED!
P.S. Thanks for reading all of this
