he's so not him anymore

i used to like him a lot. he used to be a nice guy, maybe he still is, i don't know. wel, we haven't talked for like forever. i can remember the last time i was actually talking to him was year 2006. it wasn't even a conversation really, it was a mere " hi-hello thing". he changed a lot. for one, he doesn't kid with us anymore, he's become a serious guy, a person with an expressionless face now. then, their's that im-a-family-man-now-so-i-can't-see-you-guys-anymore- principle; which pisses me off really. why can't he just be what he used to be... my friend i mean. can't he be a family man and one of us at the same time? he can still hang out with us sometimes, can he? well, he can even bring his wife along if he wishes to. my point here is, we do can change, but we don't have to become a new person all of a sudden.. right? i just miss him i guess. we used to be good friends. i used to confide with him. i used to tell him my petty problems, my paranoia, my laughters... well, not anymore, things had changed... & worst? he did too.
