I have a friend who seems to have a concerningly positive opinion of me

I have to call him a friend, I guess.

He is my chuddy friend, and he told me: "You got this :) Never knew a stronger man who would never give up."

Am I wrong for telling him to stop glazing me? His blind admiration (we have known each other for a long time) still feels weird to me to this day.

I promise I'm really not that impressive. He just has this fabricated idea of me as some kind of Chad Thundercock.

Plus I was never under the impression im being thaaaat nice. Im still snarky. Like I do listen to him ...but yeah I guess I could be nicer to my "friends"
