Before... I think before, he was more upset that you were a product of his fuck up. You were his responsibility and he understood that, but it still gave him a hell of a lot of guilt. I think now, he's had more time to deal. And he's seen what can happen.
Besides, if he tries to be a butthead, I'll just give him the big blue eyes and he'll help. You're my friend, he'll do it because I want you to be okay.
You'll be so much happier for it. You can make friends and have a life and not worry about people becoming dinner on you.
