Friends of Christmas Past

I recently found that one of my good friends from high school, who was in my wedding, deleted me from Facebook as a friend.  I know this may seem petty, but honestly...it still hurts a little.

This friend is one of those people who often love to evaluate, criticize, offer opinions/solutions, and have a sense of superiority.

This is her reality -

  -You've become such an ugly person inside
  -You have a shit ass, low paying job as a child counselor (this does not allow you to know everything)
  -Your husband is a low paid, weed smoking loser
  -Your not perfect
  -I'm sorry I'm in a better place and happier than you are

Yes, I know the above is harsh...but it's what I feel.

One reason I think she deleted me was because I didn't reach out as aggressively to one of our mutual friends when her engagement got called off.  I recognize that would be tough, and awful...Not easy to go through.  However, I wasn't truly sure how to approach the situation.  I didn't want to get into a cluster of negative conversations that didn't allow her to gain strength or prospective.  Also, I kind of saw him as loser, so I was glad to see the marriage didn't happen.  I think she liked the idea of being married...but honestly, he couldn't buy a car on his own...purchased gamer-high ticket items instead of paying bills...He needed to get his shit in order before he became a equal team member in that union.

But it's funny, the friend who decided to delete me..why? Because I was traveling, having fun, and living life? While you struggle to live and wonder if you made the right decisions...Brilliant.
