Attaboy, Mike! Say how you really feel for once!!

YEESH...!!! I'm not entirely sure why Paulo thought it'd be good to make a joke about it considering he fully understands just how easily Mike's been blowing up these days, but uhhhhh that doesn't make this any less painful lmao

I hope Paulo snaps back to wake Mike up, but honestly Paulo is too good of a boy anymore

Mike, you're being ridiculous, don't take this out on Paulo, he was having a good time, good drama-free days. Damn...

hes finally acknowledging that things arent okay

Literally this!!

came here to say this!

Oh man bad timing paulo

Gee Mike, maybe because anytime someone tried talked to you about it you flipped out???

As if everyone hasn't already been trying to tell you that.

My God Mike is annoying. He makes no sense. I hope Paulo tells him about himself before I do.

OOF

What is there to understand? Of course it sucks but there is nothing they can actually do about it. Mike is in a toxic relationship that only he can leave if he wants to feel better.

I'm really interested to see what Paulo's response to that is going to be. But also in the grand scheme... what do you think Paulo would be looking for, calling Mike while he's cooking? Maybe gonna invite him over? Mike, please, look at your friends that consistently have tried so hard to be there for you...

He called for the homework

Top 10 mike cringe moments

Just when i start to feel bad for mike everyone DOES feel bad for him that sandy never talks to him but mike is feeling this way because he is ALLOWING himself to feel this way by staying in a situation that is hurting him if sandy doesnt have time to even send a good night text she doesnt have time for a relationship and he needs to break it off and move on not take his frustrations out on his friends

Literally everyone close to him has said that very plainly to him. Yes, they all understand. They've tried to be there for you and even get you to talk about it. But every time, he blows up at them for being good friends so wtf are they supposed to do..?

Seems like Paulo was trying to get out of this situation and freaked it as a joke...

holy shit mike, i understand the toxic relationship mindset but god do i hate you right now

it doesn't matter what paulo or ANYONE says or does to mike at this point. help has been offered so many times in so many ways from all of his friends. hell, even LUCY has given mike advice.

he is in an abusive relationship, it has taken over his entire life. he needs to get out

it super sucks that he's dealing with this but honestly what... COULD paulo even say in this situation other than hanging up? mike'll be upset at any angle;; I feel bad for mike but I can't see a viable way to talk about sandy to him anymore without him becoming upset ??

He shouldn’t be blowing up in Paulo, he’s just trying to lighten the mood for a situation that Mike keeps reassuring him that everything is actually ok. >_>

Mike: I'm not crazy, YOU ARE!!!! (laughs)

Paulo is literally the only friend that is willing to talk to Mike right now and at this point, after all the anger and passive aggressiveness he's been receiving I don't think he'll be that friend for long

It really shows that for all their issues, Lucy gave him a lot of time, attention and companionship during the long stretches between letters back in the day. She kept him busy and engaged in the day to day. But without her, he has slowly isolated himself from everyone and it really shows that Sandy has always been somewhat emotionally unavailable. It's funny that even though he blamed Lucy for a lot, she was the crutch that let his long distance relationship work.

Your mind, literally
