It's not wrong to care, of course not. It makes us (the proverbial "us") feel good to care about others. It sounds like the people you gave support to were the "fairweather" friend type. When stuff is okay or good for you, they're there for you, but when the weather becomes cloudy or rainy, metaphorically, they disappear. I'm sorry this happened to you. It has happened to me as well, and I'm sure others, so you're not alone. I'm not sure there is anything to be done about it other than write them off and move on.

I'm sorry that your friends have treated you this way.

It's not wrong to care and I hope this doesn't put you off from caring about others in the future.
