I'm having a really tough time with one of my best friends at the moment. We have been in college together for 4 years and have shared a house with some other students for the last 2 years. Money has always been super-tight with all of us but we just about managed to struggle by...
Anyway I started stripping about 6 months ago. I consistently bring home a lot of money and life has definitely become a lot easier for me - I can afford nice things once in a while, my student debt is a lot less, I can pay bills on time etc etc - but the whole time I'm acutely aware that my housemates are still cash-stretched and it must be really hard for them to see me earning so much. Because of this I am really careful about flashing money around.
One friend though seems to be having some real jealousy issues with me. She'd never say anything outright, but she's made several acidic comments that smack of the green-eyed monster. She even changed my name in her phone address book to 'Miss Minted' - meant as a lighthearted joke but I think I can see sinister roots of it now. The friction between us is getting worse and worse. One on hand, I feel bad for her because I know how broke she is and how it must suck to live in the same house as someone who earns thousands a week. On the other hand, she's my friend dammit, friends don't envy each other like this. And if she has a problem with my life getting better just because hers hasn't, is she really a good friend at all? I feel like having an angry confrontation about her sucky attitude.![]()
