Strictly For The Hood - Should You Fight A Friend? - Daily Piff

A reader wanted my opinion on if he should beef with some dudes he is cool with. Here is the actual question:

"You and ya man's get out from doing a bid and the n*ggas yall used to run with are trying to talk smack but don't wanna shoot the one or beef for real, then they try to squash the beef. But that was ya man's, should you forget about the beef and run with them again?"

I don't think things can be the same once you beef. Whether it used to be ya man's or not, it won't be the same relationship if you decide to run with them n*ggas again. That lil beef yall had is going to be in the back of everybody's minds all the time you are chilling together. Then n*ggas might start being more defensive about sh*t just because of the past beef you had. For example, before the beef with them, you could crack a joke and call the n*gga a funny name or some sh*t and the n*gga wouldn't think nothing of it. But if you try to call that same n*gga, that same name after going through a altercation with the n*gga, he might take it a different way. He might feel some type of way about the sh*t just because of the lil altercation yall had. So now he is on the defensive about everything because he don't want you to think he a sucka and you don't want him to think you a sucka. N*ggas will forget a b*tch they f*cked before they forget a n*gga they had problems with. I say don't run with them n*ggas but at the same time, you don't have to look at them like they your enemy but as far as being close to them again, don't do it, never know when a n*gga gonna catch a flashback and start thinking about the old sh*t and wanna get grimey cause like I said, n*ggas don't forget people they had beef with.
