[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not OP, but I have lost some friends due to “leveling up”. I graduated college/went to grad school and at the time had some friends who didnt go to/finish college who made me feel like I was the loser for getting an education.

I also had a very good friend who I am no longer friends with bc when I decided to buy a home and get more serious about life (date serious men vs just hook up with whomever, not get drunk/high all the time etc) she thought I was being uppity.

Changing your station in life can be lonely.[/quote]

Thank you, I didn’t realize reaching goals and “leveling up” was such a bad thing but I think when it comes to friends they either get jealous or can’t deal with the change. I’m with you, I’ve furthered my education, bought a larger home, etc….Am I proud and have I worked hard, yes. I guess I just didn’t realize that you would lose long lasting friends the moment these changes happened. It is a direct one to one correlation. Again friends since college days.[/quote]

Im the PP above, keep doing what you are doing. When I decided to “level up” my bank account was always overdrawn, I had maxed out all of my credit cards, and was hanging out with sketchy people/hooking up with sketchy men. I am now typing this from my office at work (an office!!) and am going home to an amazing husband and kids. I have $ in the bank and a great home. I only wish I had made the decision to work on myself (or “level up”) sooner. There are growing pains, but its absolutely going to be worth it in the long run. [/quote]
