Selfish Friend

Tweet

I had a best friend before, back in my early college years. We really got along pretty well until this summer, I got a part-time job. That's where it all started. I was pretty much away during our spare time so she hang out with one my classmates, whom I am really not fond of. I don't know why I hate it when she tries to insert herself to my friendship with my best friend. At first I really don't mind. But I got really pissed off when during lunch, my best and I decided to eat this particular food, this girl invited my friend to join her eat another kind of dish, sounds shallow of me but I really got hurt when she did not even bother to ask me if I liked to switch to another dish together with them. At that point, I really felt left behind. And with that incident came other awkward moments until finally I blew up. They confronted me but I refused to talk. Even now where done with our studies, I refused to patch things up with the two of them. Why did I hate my so-called bff, because It feels she lack the sensitivity to see I'm being left out. A priest told me after opening up the situation with him that I'm being immature, selfish and demanding. He said I cannot choose the people my friends want to be with. True, but I feel also that if you really are my friend, you will not jeopardize our friendship by being insensitive. Do you think its my immaturity that caused us our friendship? If you were in my place, will you be openly angry of the fact that you are totally left out?
