Re: Friendship advice...?

[(Anonymous)]

If they know this about you and still say really dumb things, then I'd say yeah, might be time for some new friends. Being oblivious to the fact that you're far less privileged while rubbing their first world problems in your face isn't just an issue of privilege, it's an issue of why people who are supposedly your friends are behaving like inconsiderate asshats. I realize that's not necessarily an approach you want to take, though.

I guess if you want to do it in a reasonably and relatively non-confrontational manner, you could try and ask them questions about why they feel this way about XYZ while simultaneously contrasting your different take on things. You'd have to be really careful not to do this snarkily, though. It'd also require a LOT of patience and a willingness to try and get your friends to be a little more empathetic and a lot less selfish.

Teenage Me wouldn't have had the patience, so only you can figure out how much work you want to put into this. One thing you might want to keep in mind is that... well, this sounds cold, but teenage friendships don't last forever and sometimes that's a good thing. Sure, there are people who have best friends they met in grade school, but that's more of a rarity these days. The older you get, the more people you'll meet, with greater chances of finding people who are on the same page.

IMO? Life is too short to invest time in being friends with people you don't like or who don't treat you well. Unless there's a more pressing reason why you can't simply fade out of their lives, it's a very tempting thought.
