Occasional cussing is fine. My friend cusses a lot though. I think I am going to forget this friendship anyway. Cussing all the time in your 30s makes you a loser. This forum made me realize this.

Sounds like it will be a real loss for your "friend."

It is true that you are known by the company you keep. I choose not to hang out with nasty, yucky people. I certainly wouldn't want my children around that.

I find people who never curse to be incredibly dull.

Well you would find me extremely dull then. Thankfully, at 50 years old I'm good with my routine, dull, uncool life.

The world is not going to change for you. If you don't want your baby exposed to certain things, shield it from them.

My son has to come. It's not an option to see her without bringing him. She has a young child as well. I am visiting from out of town. I am wondering how to say it nicely not IF I should say it at all.

What? You're visiting from out of town? So your child has no exposure to this friend except for this one lunch. And your primary source is from emails and texts.

Whatever OP. Sounds like you already made up your mind but do you or your husband never curse? Oh next post: How can I politely tell my husband to stop cursing around our child?

Yes we do cuss but we don't do it all the time or in public. My friend cusses like a salior. My primary source is not texting or emails. I'm not sure where you got that idea. I think it's odd he can't control cussing in emails or texts messages. I asked him to stop cussing all the time because it comes across as immature. Anyway I have decided not to meet up anymore.

Op here: I think this is what I am go to do. I have asked him not to cuss many times. If it happened occasionally it would be one thing. He constantly cusses in person and now in texts and emails. It's too much for me.

You sound tiresome.

I don't think the cussing person is the loser here
