Just went out with some 'friends' tonight only to find they were gossiping about me the whole time
So I went out with some 'friends' tonight, it was ok, nothing overly exciting but it was a plesant evening overall. Im not super close with these people but everytime we go to a bar the night is always fun.
As I got home tonight (I left earlier than them because I was tired and wanted to go to bed), I got a message from one of the friend's asking if I was ok. Said I was fine, just tired, they then proceeded to tell me that the other people were talking shit about me most of the night and asked if that was why I left early. Im astounded honestly.
Why is it so hard to find decent friends? I dont know how people find a partner let alone decent friends or people who treat you well.
Edit: To everyone asking me how I didnt realise that they were talking about me, they obviously didnt do it while I was there. Many times during the night, we would seperate, to get a drink from the bar, go to the bathroom or when we saw someone we knew and would go to talk to them. They werent openly talking shit while I was sitting with them
