If it ended a friendship of five years over some paltry squabble about a vacation and a bit of cash, I'd theorize it wasn't a super healthy relationship to begin with.

Don't go all hermit and burn your bridges. Social structure is a huge part of keeping mental well being and support systems in good health. It sucks now, but you'll move on. Dont let their poor relationship skills ruin your own future in socialization.

This definitely seemed like a superficial relationship to begin with. If they end a friendship over such petty things, I think you're much better off. I know it sucks, but it's a little better than wasting more time and effort, just to get screwed over worse later on!

The problem isn't the problem; The problem is your attitude about the problem. Friends come and go, and there's no sense in crying about the tide leaving.

Well today was just the climax of my "greatest week ever"!
Dec is sort of a bitter-sweet month. A dear friend was born on Christmas day but passed away 5 years ago. So I get a little down around this month. Plus working in retail doesn't really help much...but...
Friends are suppose to support you. Right? Pick you up when your down. Right? Give a helping hand. Right?
But no. Not for me.
After almost 5 years of friendship with two of my girl-friends its over...just like that, over a matter of $60 dollars.
I had asked my one friend to sell some stuff, clothes and that in the monthly rummage sale they have in town. She did and kept the money for me until we could meet up....which was Today. I asked her for it so I could finish off my Christmas shopping but she refused. Saying she was helping me save for some trip to another country I never agreed too and already said no too. Ad she got mad and told our other friend and they pretty much turned on me.
It sucked.
I didn't think they would do that. I had a similar experience before like it and it took me quite a few years to get over. I was basically forced believed in thinking it was all my fault.
BUT not this time. I stood my ground and when these girls saw me doing that they said, it's over, this friendship is done.
So I lost $60 bucks. And had to use my tips I was saving ($45 for commissions I was wanting for gifts to me for my birthday) to finish off my Christmas shopping. I still need to get 2 items. So selling some clothing for that. Cause payday is not until the 28th.
But this incident totally has me rethinking about being friendless...is that wrong? I want friends but after 2 painful breakups...I don't know.
I don't have anyone else in my life especially ones who I can share my furry art/interest with...
It's late. I need to work tomorrow. Sorry if this post seems pity pitching. I honestly don't have anyone around to talk with or anything.
I'll be around tomorrow evening. Good night!

If you dislike working in retail then go to college/university. Getting 80k in debt to obtain a job making 90k per year is worth it my friend

Only if op goes into STEM. Otherwise, with college being 6x as expensive as it was in the 50s (adjusted for inflation), it's probably not worth it. Trade school isn't a bad option either, again, as long as op goes into an employable field.

Oh trust me I always urge STEM but there are other options that are available though it doesn't quite pay as handsomely (but free housing, travel and shit). Linguistics and translation are other avenues that pay fairly well

I am closing this thread, since the OP post was cleared, and the topic seems to be wandering.
