Ever since I found my girlfriend of 4 years, my highschool best friends have started to alienate me (21 now). A few have told me that since I have decided to spend more time with her, that I somehow value their friendship less, and they treat me as such. One of my best friends has even told me he has no interest in hanging out with me anymore because (admittedly) I'm with her more often than not. They've started group chats behind my back to slander myself and the one I love and plan to spend my life with. I can't even remember a time where any of them even inquired on how she makes me feel or how much my life has improved being with her. I even live with one of these people now, and although he doesn't seem to care so much about it anymore, and we've seemed to move past it, it still hurts to think about from time to time. I feel like sometimes the friends I had growing up aren't truly friends at all, and it scares me because I don't want to lose the only friends I've had. I hope one day I find some that will accept and understand me, and not just trash me because I'm trying to find happiness.
