My husband has a freind that copies everything he does .If they were young I would understand but he is grown?
He has a family of his own . If my husband buys clothes or hats or shoes he rushes out and gets the same thing it annoys my husband but he wont tell him that . Now he is coping me I planted my first garden this year and now he is planting his first garden ! I bought a ham to make the other day and he asked me where I got it and called a few hours later and told my husband he went and got a ham at the same place I did and it really hit the spot! I think this is odd .. does any one else? This is just a few examples he does it with just about everything . He has even bought the same car as us at the same place...

Maybe he admires your husband very much and he is trying to be just like him.

aww i feel kinda sorry for this guy! he clearly doesnt feel secure in his own skin, & feels the need to emulate someone he believes epitomises what he lacks.
1stly, u should both encourage him to find his own ID by asking him about his opinions on things eg if ur at a carshow, ask him "what car do u like?" u guys should also praise him when he shows signs of forming his own ID eg if he buys a tshirt that's different from ur husband, say "hey, cool shirt, really like it"
if that doesnt work, then ur husband needs to tell him gently that it makes him uncomfortable when he copies him. To lessen the embarrassment/ humiliation, ur husband should say that he used to feel the strong need to emulate his brother/ dad/ friend/ boss etc (yes, i am suggesting the telling of a white lie for the sake of ur husband's friendship, & the guy's self esteem)

You can have insecurities at all stages in life!
He's obviously not comfortable with himself and looks up to your husband, and really do men ever grow up lol ;)
Just get your husband to have a quiet word and maybe help him find his own identity lol!
god bless x
Please answer my question
Did he ever like me?
