"Why don't you want to come to my wedding?"
"I want to come but I can't afford a ticket overseas."
"Whatever, if you want to stay home and miss out on life that's your decision I guess."
Apparently me saying no to this wedding was the last straw for them, because they're always asking me to do things I can't afford and they don't seem to understand why I can't despite me telling them every time that I am poor. So now I'm the bad person because I'm totally being poor and "holding myself back" on purpose.
If they want to burn this bridge they can fuck right off. I've had enough of this shit.
A lot of Email job types think that "I can't afford it" is "It will mean I have to not go to a fancy resturaunt twice a month" and not "I literally will be unable to pay for rent and food if I do this." The idea that they're friends with actual poor people is hard to process.
