respect vs friendship!!!!!!!!!

HI aps! I think if my friend does anything privately in his/her spare time, I should have no objection with the fact how s/he chooses to spend his/her time. If s/he asks for my advice on any issue then I could tell him/her pros and cons and consequence of s/he indulging in any of the hobbies/acts. My relations/friendship with him/her is based on his/her overall personality, attitude, behavior and conduct and I will go by that. There is no question of not respecting his/her because of his personal tastes etc.

I would be laughing at said person, sounds like a sketch. After a while just ignore it eventually someone else is gonna see if he keeps going maybe the embarrassment will help.

well for me ill respect. but only if he/she will do it privately. but if he/s act is no normal anymore then thats the time ill enter and tel him/her that is no good act.

Well it becomes quite serious and worth considering issue if the person under consideration is so close to you. And it is not a matter of technological advancements rather its a matter of self control,spirituality,and one's outlook towards physical intimacy. You cannot declare that it is good or bad because it completely depends on how you look at it. I think you should talk to him and share what you feel about this habit of his. If he respects you then he will take care of your concern. If i were you then his image in my eyes would have certainly degraded and the extent of respect i have had for him would also have been fallen to a great extent.:)

It's his life, and what he does in his own free time is no personal business of mine. If he is the friend that you say he is, surely something as trivial as this would not stand in the way of your friendship? You two probably became friends because you got along great, and are you really willing to let something like this ruin your friendship? Think about it. If what he's doing is really starting to bother you, talk to him, and tell me how you're feeling. Perhaps the both of you can find a compromise? Good luck!

I think both respect and friendship are imprtant for us in our daily life.Respect can make our life full of honest.And friendship can bring us into a colorful life.They can improve the standard of life.

I will surely take this as serious...I will make a talk with that person and decide that what to do...If there is any change in that person's behaviour, we have to take care of us..They will be dangerous people....Be careful..Thanks

wow it is really hard one... because in every decision or every words that should come out from your mouth must not hurt your friend...but i think your friend will understand you if you give him/her a true reaction regarding his new hobbies... and i think it is right as a friend to remind her/him of the consequences or effect of watching pron clips.. it is your way to make her/him feel that you care ...

hi apsara60, i would say that in that case you need a serious face to face discussion on what your friend thinks about his doings. its not a matter of sudden change.if can be his sudden liking for the thing has increased or may be he need to be advised or told about his behavior. so instead of panicking on his changed attitude and interest i would suggest you to have an open ended discussion on what drives him so much to watch such clips on his mobile. until you tell him that you are bothered may be hes not realizing that hes doing something which is disturbing you. go ahead and have a face to face communication to clear the matter and answer your queries.
