I've read a sentence:
"Do not compromise what you believe just to get along."
How can we deal with the word "get along" in this sentence? What does it mean?

I just answered your question about your friend's selfishness.
The solutions I gave you can be regarded as a "breaktrough".
You are compromising your comfort and happiness for the sake of "getting along" with your friends.
In other words, you are worry that if you ask them to leave, they won't be your friends anymore.
The answer to your situation is exactly that:
"Do not compromise what you believe just to get along."

Hello there. I think what it means is, stay firm to your beliefs even if it is out of the norm. Many times people do certain things to please people around them. We should all stay firm to our beliefs and principles and not live to just 'get along' with others.
