Saving money is ruining my social life
In the past year, I've cleaned up my finances a lot. When I was unexpectedly fired from my old job
I got a new job within a few weeks of losing my old job, and it paid better, so that was nice.
But I'm so worried about getting into a bad situation again that I've focused on achieving financial goals
I am proud of my progress. But it also takes time and takes up a lot of my mental energy.
Recently, a friend told me that this was affecting our friendship.
She said that when she is around me she feels like she is being judged for her spending.
He also pointed out that other people in our friend group felt the same way.
I've noticed people reaching out to me less (and apparently hanging out without inviting me).
And now I'm embarrassed that I'm causing trouble.
