Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : Backstory: I've been friends with some of these people since middle school, and we graduated high school together last year. Now my best friend since 7th grade is kind of the ringleader and is extremely stubborn and likes to avoid her problems, in addition to having extreme anxiety issues and doesn't get help for it (her family can't afford it and she doesn't want to admit it to them).
Ever since about a year ago I found my calling in career and have started focusing on doing as much as I can to learn and run my own business, so my free time has dwindled. In addition to that I have been spending more time with my business partner, teacher, mentor, you name it, we're extremely close and I try to learn as much as I can. I found someone who I get along with and is already a professional in multiple areas I'm interested in. So I spend most of my time there, with them and their family. 

My friends got jealous and we're concerned for me spending all of my time with my mentor, so I had tried to explain it to them how much this learning meant for me. In the end, my best friend thought I didn't have time for her, assumed I was busy, felt too bad about herself to ask (?) I'm not sure. But we stopped hanging out as much, and grew apart. They made group chats not including me, and stopped inviting me to things. I tried to text her as much as I could, but I'm really terrible at communication with more than 1 or 2 people and I stopped seeing her every day after graduation, and especially when they all moved to colleges away from our home town. Last time I texted her was over winter break. It was awkward and her answers seemed distant. 

Here's where the beans spill: A couple weeks ago she posted about me on social media to all our friends saying how she was petty and didn't like me. She printed out her own face and put it over mine in our prom pictures. 

I asked my other friend if she hated me too, and her response said, "nah but imma be real with ya, it was shitty for you to abandon her" 

The next day when I hadn't heard back from anyone else I unfriended all of them and I haven't heard anything since. It still kinda stings, and wonder if I should've tried harder?


TLDR: I didn't have much time for my friends after I discovered my career and my best friend bullied me on social media in front of everyone. I deleted all their contacts and unfriended them.
