I did not talk about mine because I have an empathy problem and things usually go bad quickly because of it. However, I met some success but again, I’ve chosen not to mention it.

And now when things go very well for me in life, my friends burst out with assumption I have no relationships and start pointing fingers, brimming with useless advices. Does it sound fair to you?
Yeo - sounds fair. I guess more so what I was saying is perhaps give them more of a chance before a total discard? Overhauling friendships isn’t so easy - and maybe if you’re honest about what you need from them may help.
