Re: Friendship advice...?

Unpopular opinion time!

Chances are, even if you've told them your situation, it's entirely possible that it just didn't sink as ~real~ for them. Teens in most cultures [at least that I've seen/talked to people from] are pretty self-centered. Things just aren't as ~real~ or bad as what they're going through unless it's happening to them, or right in front of them. It's also entirely possibly that they think you're making it - a lot of people do exaggerate to an impressive amount online, and it's not completely out there for them to be assuming that. A lot of people seem to think 'If they can get online then it must not really be that bad.'

Not saying that it's right, or justifies their behavior though - even if you do seem a little thin skinned when it comes to people complaining about things that you, personally, don't see as a problem. If you decide you want to try remaining friends with them...maybe try remembering that what you see as a problem/wouldn't bug you doesn't mean it wouldn't bug anyone and that's a perfectly valid thing? Otherwise stop being friends with them. You'd be doing both sides a favor.

[Also, re: parenthesis bit- there's also substantial proof that people act differently online than off, so all your assessments would be based on that and not their offline 'real life' personalities.]
