      I wouldn’t have known that without reading this article, would I? Which was my point.

      I originally responded to you claiming it was “just shitty behavior.” Are you telling me you had read the article at that point?

        That is simply false. You originally responded to this comment:

        I’m glad that’s never happened to me. They wouldn’t be my friend anymore.

          Holy nit-pick, batman. I was one post off, but the timing remained the same and the question still exactly the same.

              I literally asked you a question because your post made no sense in the context of having read the article first. And that is the equivalent to knowing what you are talking about. Lol

                You asked a question that you answered yourself in the next sentence without my response. This is what you said:

                The article talks about how this is not them being assholes, but because if they have more money then their peers, it tends to make them feel isolated and self-conscious and fears about being taken advantage of. They even quote the expert at the end who says “They don’t care about the $4.”

                You would ditch a friend for struggling with someone? I find that hard to believe.

                Now you’re upset about a response to your rhetorical question you didn’t like?

                Incidentally, I never said anything about anyone being an asshole when you said that, this is what I said:

                I’m glad that’s never happened to me. They wouldn’t be my friend anymore.

                You can try being dishonest about a conversation everyone can see, but it won’t work very well.

                  So, wait, had you read the article at that point or not? If so, what the fuck did you mean? I’m really confused because you are going off on some other tangent at this point.

                  To explain, I feel like your position has totally shifted with no admission that something said earlier was wrong, so I’m trying to figure out if I misunderstood or if you are just pretending at this point that you weren’t actually arguing what you were. So far, you’ve dodged it with every post, more and more so trying to make it about me.
