Is my friend rude?
A while back my mom had pissed me off about something stupid, and of course I naturally went to my friend for help so I could cool off. After explaining to her my problems, she started acting like a total snob and kept telling me I had no right to be upset and that she couldn't help me. Now before you go thinking I just happen to expect everyone to help me out and bow down to my issues, I don't ever think or feel that way. She straight-out told me, ' I can't help you, for ****'s sake see a therapist or something.'. I don't know why, it just really hurt me and I couldn't help telling her off about it. I constantly have trouble helping her with her problems, like when she's suicidal because her parents yell at her, but I still be a logical person and help her out. I don't understand why she had to go and say that. Then she said I know nothing of a hard life, yet I do. I've been through twice the amount of stuff she's been through. Her parents yell her because she is lazy and does nothing with her life, that's why she feels suicidal. Yet, my parents have gotten a divorce, my mom had a horrible boyfriend around the house for 2 years straight, and I've had to suffer and see many of my relatives pass away.
No, I am not suicidal or depressed myself, I just feel like people always get mad at me when I am lightly upset, and then go on about their issues and expect me to be their therapist.

Your friend is totally rude, like if she really is your friend she will help you, if you help her, she have to help you, you know what i mean? Friends are for helping and your friend it's not doing her job, help you. What kind of friend is that? If she doesn't help you the next time she have a problem don't help her so like this she will feel the same as you.. And if you have to tell her something, go ahead and talk with her, so like this she know what is doing wrong.
And now, me as a friend, i will tell you something, i know you are getting through hard times and it's not very nice to know that your parents are divorced, and i know how it feels because my parents are also divorced, this things happens and i'm very sorry for your relatives pass away, but you have to keep going ok? The world will not stop just because your parents are divorced or because someone pass away, the world continues, and now you decide to continue or to stop... take care! You are strong i know! :)

I have to admit that your friend was defiantly being rude. Perhaps she was just in a bad mood and really didn't have the patients to talk about your problems when maybe she had her own problems at that moment. I know what you mean when you say that everyone is mad at you but don't take it to heart. Talk to your friend in a couple of days and ask her why she said those things. Tell her how you felt and why you feel upset about what she said. For all I know she could just be on her period then.
Good luck and stay strong :)

It's not a contest kiddo. Everyone has crap in their lives....EVERYONE. You probably just caught your friend in a bad mood. Get over it. Life is short.
