Family & Friends

Is it time to bow out of these friendships. Or am I taking it too personal?

I work in the entertainment industry, so my roster of colleagues is pretty impressive. I’ve always found it hard to make friends with the everyday person because it’s hard for me to relate. I always remain humble, and try my best to understand a normal person’s day. The reason I, want to have friends outside of my business is because it would be nice to be able to vent. You can’t vent to work colleagues that never goes well! I have two girlfriends that seem to be getting annoyed with that I am now sober. I don’t fall into theatrics and drama like I used to. Lately, I’ve had a lot of family drama and very heavy things happen to me like a dog attack, losing my home to foreclosure, and I’ve also been physically sick. Not one of these two girlfriends ever picked up the phone to call me and ask if I’m OK. If they do call me, they start going off on tangents about their life, and it’s usually about something so stupid. Like, a same issue they had OVER AND OVER AGAIN. I JUST SIT THERE AND LISTEN! What really did it for me today, is I have been calling one of my so-called friends for two days. I had a really bad fight with my father. Every single time she said she was busy and made it about her that she has a headache, she’s in bed, someone staying at her house, so I just gracefully texted and said, I am actually busy as well. Hope you have a great Fourth of July. I’m feeling disconnected from these people and I think that it’s time to bow out thoughts?
