ITT We Discuss How Friends Change After Success

How did your friendships change? Did you get more isolated? Did people start becoming more critical of your every move? Crabs in the bucket problems?
Been feeling kind of isolated and criticized lately. What to do? Should I just find new friends? How do I know if it's just a phase?

Got isolated.

People either start being afraid of you, which is understandable because the power dynamic changes considerably, or start to demand unreasonable shit from you - mostly in form of loans or straight up money.

Will be very hard to find new friends, but it is highly recommended if you can.

Fuck dude this is a curse. Were you able to find new friends?

I never told anyone about my success so nothing has changed. I’m stealth as fuck about this kind of stuff. You should have thought ahead.

nope

What's the point of even keeping the same friends? These people are npcs if you have made it anyway. Find friends with greater social mobility who have riches like you. Same rationale with being the smartest person in the room. You're simply in the wrong room.

This. Why would you advertise yourself? You're marking yourself for no good reason.

Nobody here has friends or is successful

this.

>make money
>don't spend it
K?

Been thinking this. I feel guilt over muh loyalty, but realistically speaking it's not like they are treating me the same as before.

Kek. Have you found a gf/wife?

Not true

>used to talk about small victories and everyone would get hype about it and be supportive
>once I actually made a lot of money I could no longer talk about it because people thought I was bragging
>"alrighttttt alrighttttt everything you do is right you're perfect" any time I gave advice
>year later they all went way up to their ass in debt to go to school and get degrees, get nicer cars, and buy better houses than me and are paycheck to paycheck
>now they cant hang out because even though they have things they don't have any money
I don't talk to any of my high school friends anymore. 20 years of being best friends and now I don't have anything in common with them.

Sigh. Have you found new friends or is it just us on Jow Forums?

I talk to a handful of friends from the navy and mostly older people. I also get along with my two brother in laws, but I have basically become a recluse otherwise.

I get texts or calls once in a while from the old group, but I'm afraid to answer them because they usually need help with money or something.

If I 3ver make it I plan on cutting a lot of people off. There are maybe 3-4 friends I might keep in touch with.

And the dating life?

>Kek. Have you found a gf/wife?
nope. Still trying to figure out how to talk to women at all.

My friends are pretty stoked on my acquisition of seed money for our commune that we've larped about for over a decade.
The original plan was hippie homestead styled, but they seem to understand that crypto centered is more grounded in reality. We can still do the fun homestead stuff anyway, just with passive income as a fallback.

Good thing I broke contact with my friends while still poor.

I've been married for years now. I'm a 30 yr old boomer. Wife is awesome, doesn't drink or smoke or go out to bars. She also browses Jow Forums and is into forex trading, but hasn't hit any big gains yet.

I think I got lucky though, as most of the people I know changed completely even with just a gf. My wife changed nothing about me besides quitting cigarettes when she got pregnant with my son.

this is why you dont tell anyone
