I chose to move away from my friends for better job (and life) opportunities.

I'm nerdy, but I still want to do things like: go to Vegas and travel overseas. And I don't even know what else. Even if we had taken a road trip or something during the time we all lived in the same town. Or left the suburbs more often. But a lot of my friends are frugal unless they're spending on something nerd\video game related. Or they're in such poor financial positions now that it'd be stupid to bring up any of these big ideas. Even when a couple of them were doing pretty good, they don't seem to have much interest in the world outside of their bubble.


What do you do when your friend is unemployed, lives at home rent free at age 27? Meanwhile, me and some other friends of his could easily get him a job in retail. We got years of connections with the company. But he got an associates degree in business and expects a career with no internship and only some seasonal work experience at the mall?
:dahell:

Or what about my other friend, Mike. He's my best friend... until they're are women around. It's like he feels threatened. So, he'll make jokes at another man's expense and just simp like crazy. He's a really funny guy too. And it's not like I'm all swagged out and am blessed with game. So, it's like he lives in fear. Maybe he'd keep the relationships with women going if he showed just an ounce of ambition. Be 29, empty your retirement savings, so you can keep living in your parents' basement playing video games, brehs. He got into retail during high school and stuck with it for years. And he was so, so close to management too. They would've paid for GED classes too during the 9 years he worked there too. But he cared more about people liking him than his job\making money.

Looking back, it's interesting to think that everyone who did something with their lives would slowly stop hanging out and\or move away.

Yeah, I don't understand how some of these dudes function. There's a big difference between keeping your circle small and having no friends at all.

Word. At this point, the people I "deal" with far outnumber my friends because my real Friends are a tight circle people. All these motherfukkas I met after I "made it" are only people who fukk with me because either they have to (work related) or are just part of a social circle that may collide with mine once in a while.

I have 4 legit close friends, that I kick with on the regular, we've know each other for a few years now, we all used to work at the same place, moved on to new jobs, but still kept in contact & made time to chill one another. I still keep in contact with a few of my other friends from college & previous jobs. S/O to the homie @DaPresident
