Joe was a very good friend of Dominic’s. However, he had a few bad traits that Dominic didn’t like about him. In fact, he couldn’t put up with some of the things Joe did. Joe had a habit of looking down on other people. Dominic told Joe to respect everyone, but Joe wouldn’t listen. Joe was an arrogant man. “You won’t get away with this behavior! One day you’ll get into trouble!” Dominic warned his friend. Joe wouldn’t listen. Gradually, he turned into a very unpleasant person. The straw that broke the camel's back was when Joe called off a few meetings with Dominic at the last minute, which made Dominic angry. Dominic was so tired of Joe that he once told him “I don’t want to be your friend anymore!”
